Lancashire 28 for 0 trail Worcestershire 270 (Waite 77, Lategan 53, Balderson 3-52) by 242 runs
Persistent rain prevented any play on the second day of the Rothesay County Championship match between Lancashire. Worcestershire at Southport.
The covers were on the square at Trafalgar Road well before the scheduled start of play at 11.00. nothing that happened over the next few hours encouraged the groundstaff to consider removing them.
An early lunch was taken at 12.30. it was no surprise at all when umpires Jack Shantry and Chris Watts abandoned play at 2.35 p.m.
Play is scheduled to resume at 11.00 on Sunday when the teams will look to make progress towards ending their current dismal runs of form.
Both sides arrived at Southport on Friday morning having lost their last two games. Lancashire are currently fourth in Division Two, 28 points behind leaders Durham, and Worcestershire are three points worse off.
