You have to begin to wonder if New Road has a viable future the way things are going. Seems to be affected more every year.

When the touring test side were here for the whole season(I'm an oldie!) their opening fixture was traditionally Worcester and whilst occasionally it was rain affected I don't recall the ground ever being flooded.

Anyone been to Kidderminster CC ground ?

 

[LynchMob]

If it rains you could always do the Severn Valley Railway! It is only 10 minutes walk from cricket ground.

Waterlogged pitches used to be just a football thing.

I guess it would.cost a fortune to put flood defences in place at the ground. That's if it's possible to do that.

I read an article a couple of years ago after the ground had been previously flooded. It was proposed to build flood barriers but Worcestershire were advised that if any other areas, that had not been flooded previously, became flooded they would blame the club for displacing floodwaters and they would likely be sued.

Just looked and it’s about 40 miles from my house to Kidderminster. Think I’ll head to that one.

Presumably then the land is worthless as it couldn't be used for building.

The Chester Tavern is just over the road.
Cracking real ales, craft beers and filled rolls.

Built on water meadows, floods are getting more regular.
Funnily enough Worcestershire used to play at least one game a season at Kiddy and upset them by stopping the tradition.
Then the floods happened and WCCC had to crawl back.
