Confirmed that Moeen has left Worcester & in his comment says he is going back to Birmingham for tail end of his career so you can expect an announcement any minute I’d guesss

Gutted, another Pear to Bear in a week

Welcome home Moeen. 🙂

[Villan For Life]

All confirmed and hopefully he can help develop some of our younger players.

[Richard]

Sorry Pears fans, he did say he wanted to play for a team challenging and doing well.....

"He's coming home, he's coming home" (apologies Worcester fans!!).  Sure I heard that it was a white ball contract though.

That's how BBC are reporting it at least.

[Rotterdam]

'Pay as you go' red ball contract as well.

Hopefully help mentor some of the young talent?

A lot will depend on England - T20 World Cup this year and 50 over next Autumn? If Mo stays in the squad then you might only get Blast next summer but you’d think he won’t go on beyond 50 over WC so the following two years you should have him….make a good captain if he wants red ball too.

Worcs were never going to afford him as a white ball player

[Dave P]

We'll have three very good, very different spinners next year in Moeen, Briggs and Lintott.

[Lastfootstamper]

A couple of wickets wouldn't go amiss about now, just to settle my jitters.

[paul_e]

After looking a bit daunting at one point the last 5 overs were excellent and have kept the target well within our reach, Brathwaite bowled exceptionally.

[Lastfootstamper]

Hants limited to 186/6 after looking like we'd be set 200+ again. Brilliant final over from Brathwaite, finishing with 4/30.

[olaftab]

Not good so far. 16/2 Davies gone.
