Yes - abandoned as a draw. No sure about signing Philip. Definitely has made a difference but we still haven't been able to capitalise on good starts with the ball. In both innings we had half the opposition out for not very many but couldn't prevent a lower order counter-attack. What we really need is a seamer who is fast enough to take wickets with the old ball, as Gleeson was during his brief stay in the CC. I haven’t seen Philip, but I assume he’s quite wayward as he usually goes for a fair number of runs, but that’s fair enough I suppose if you’re picking up the wickets. He’s actually finished his brief season with just one wicket fewer than Williams, who’s played in 12 of the 14 games, but as much as anything that probably tells you about the famine that WW has had. |

x.com/BBCLancsCricket/status/1840082779985363413The head coaches thoughts on the whole shambolic campaign..For anyone who struggles to get to sleep, watch it just before you go to bed, you'll be asleep before the end of the interview. Waffling on without saying anything. We did not get enough batting points or bowling points. Only Jennings has an average of over 40.00. Hants has 6 players and Surrey 5 players, Notts 7. Durham 6. No one got 50 wickets. Balderson the most with 36. I really can't see us anywhere but the bottom of Division 2 next year until Benkenstein and Chilton have left. I can't wait to hear who the overseas signings are. |

Worcestershire 180 (Waite 60, van Beek 48, Phillip 5-65, Bailey 3-22) and 223 for 9 (van Beek 44, Hose 41, Phillip 4-77) drew with Lancashire 177 (Waite 3-38)
Lancashire finished their 2024 campaign with a draw against Worcestershire at New Road.
West Indies bowler Anderson Phillip struck with his first ball of the day for Lancashire as Jake Libby played too early at the delivery and offered a gentle return catch.
Phillip struck again when Kashif Ali, Worcestershire’s leading run-scorer in the Championship this summer, went for a flashing drive and edged through to keeper Matty Hurst.
Gareth Roderick completed 2,000 first class runs for Worcestershire when he reached nine but added only five more before he was run out.
Rob Jones turned Phillip towards cover and he and Roderick set off for a single but the keeper-batter was unable to make his ground before Will Williams direct hit at the non-striker’s end.
Jones (17) was lbw after aiming to drive Tom Bailey and Club Captain Brett D’Oliveira lost his middle stump to the same player. Ethan Brookes was lbw to a delivery angled in by Williams at 78-6.
But for the second time in the game Matthew Waite led a counter-attack, this time in partnership with Adam Hose.
He pulled Phillip for six and a similar shot off the same bowler brought another boundary. Hose provided excellent support, mixing solid defence with a series of fine strokes, on driving George Balderson and straight driving Williams to the ropes.
Waite raced onto 37 from 27 balls before he aimed another pull at Phillips but this time picked out Harry Singh at deep square leg.
The seventh wicket pair added 55 in just nine overs. Hose’s determined knock of 41 off 109 balls came to an end when he was lbw to give Bailey his third wicket.
Van Beek advanced to 44 before he holed out to deep mid-wicket off Phillip but then Leach had time to end with a flourish in making 30 not out before bad light halted play at 3,30pm with 41 overs remaining.
Philip finished with nine wickets in the game, whilst Tom Bailey took six.
Lancashire finish ninth in Division One in 2024 and, as confirmed on Saturday, have been relegated to Division Two in the Vitality County Championship.

So not a single result in the final round of championship matches. Congratulations to the ECB for attempting to play 'first-class' cricket in almost October.

In Division 2 Glamorgan won also Hants beat Somerset Apologies, although Glamorgan & Gloucester forfeited one innings each to manufacture a one-innings game and the Hampshire match lasted just over 200 overs, so barely more than a two-day match. The basic point remains valid. |

It certainly feel as though it's a triumph of hope over experience where fixtures are scheduled beyond the autumn equinox. I have no problem with cricket being scheduled up to that point, but it does feel as though the season has gone on a week too long.

Scott Read said a few times on the last day “ This fixture is more advanced than any of the other first division “ clearly having forgotten Hants win the previous day if he ever knew about it. I found the commentary even more irritating than usual yesterday .

I found the commentary even more irritating than usual yesterday . Scott will tell you relegation is down to bad luck only, the coaches and management are doing a great job and there are lots of positives about going into Division 2. |

I suppose if he’d asked Benkenstein why almost every player has gone backwards this season he wouldn’t be granted any future interviews!
