Description
Worcestershire County Cricket Club (WCCC), nicknamed "The Pears", is one of eighteen first-class county clubs in England and Wales, currently competing in Division Two of the Rothesay County Championship. It represents the historic county of Worcestershire. Its Natwest t20 blast team has been rebranded the Worcestershire Rapids, but the county is known by most fans as "the Pears". The club is based at New Road, Worcester. Founded in 1865, Worcestershire held minor status at first and was a prominent member of the early Minor Counties Championship in the 1890s, winning the competition three times. In 1899, the club joined the County Championship and the team was elevated to senior status as an official first-class team. Worcestershire has been classified as a List A team since the beginning of limited overs cricket in 1963; and as a senior Twenty20 team since 2003.
