Giles Stanton Reports. The Teams looked to be well matched with grades averaging out evenly. Shropshire gained an early two point lead. Shropshire then doubled their lead making the score 8-4. A trouncing looked on the cards, but Worcestershire's top eight boards showed plenty of fighting spirit gaining three points from the remaining four games.
