Gavaskar Has won the toss and has to decided to bat first.

Looking at Worcestershire's line-up they have good batting and if the batsmen get in, it will be a long day in the field for Viv and his men.

Jayasuriya ton gets Worcester out of trouble
Sri Lankan Opener Sanath Jayasuriya made 121 as the top order fell apart.

The opener was dropped on 22 of a caught and bowled by Anil Kumble

Later he was caught by Lehmann in the gully of Zheer Khan.

The top order was immediately disturbed when Captian Sunil Gavaskar was caught and bowled by Kumble 2nd ball of the match.

South Afica's Barry Richards looked in good touch on but 36 played a reckless shot and held out to point.

The last wicket partnership between Dennis Lillie and Muttiah Murarlitharan got the score past 450 with Lillie scoring 46 not out

Good luck and excellent presentation, creative idea with squads (mix of players from different eras), looks really promising.

Lillie's new ball spell gives Worcester a lead
Fast Bowler Dennis Lille took 5 Wickets with the 2nd new ball.

The men were Patel, Pollock, Zheer, Witall, Collins.

Greame Pollock was just short of a century when he got bowled by an inswinger from Dennis Lillie.

WG Grace got started the collapse by getting rid of Micheal Clarke who picked out Gavaskar at square leg.

Clarke was dropped at backward point by Sean Ervine on 28.

Bowling figures

No doubt who was pick of the bowlers in this innings
Lillie was the only one to really do any damage

Richards stars in ton as game evens out

Barry Richards made 100 off 115 balls including 7 Fours and 3 sixes
at the top of the innings.

Richards went next ball after making his century misjudging a length ball aimed at offstump trying to hit it down to fine leg for six.

Zheear Khan was pick of the bowlers with 4-52.

WG Grace looked good on 44 but misread a slower delivery by West Indian Pedro Collins

Paul Adams made a useful contribution of 36 down the order, he hit Anil Kumble for 15 in one over.
