Table-Topping Seconds Bidding To Chalk Up Fourth Win In Trophy

Table-Topping Seconds Bidding To Chalk Up Fourth Win In Trophy

Current leaders Worcestershire Seconds will be bidding to chalk up a fourth successive win in the Trophy competition when they take on MCC Young Cricketers at Kidderminster tomorrow (11am).

Coach Kevin Sharp's side have triumphed against Warwickshire at Moseley, Nottinghamshire at Oakham School and Derbyshire at Kidderminster in their opening three 50 over fixtures to collect a maximum six point haul.

Batsman Tom Fell is included in the Seconds line-up for the Trophy encounter.

The 23-year-old played in the opening two Specsavers County Championship matches and first four Royal London One-Day Cup matches of the current campaign.

George Rhodes will again skipper the side as the Seconds look to push their claims to reach the knockout stages of the competition.

He scored 134 not out in the win over Leicestershire while his opening partner Ollie Westbury hit 143 versus Derbyshire.
