England Men v Ireland abandoned
26 September 2023
We’re disheartened and saddened to see the match abandoned this afternoon. Hosting international cricket is a highlight for us each season and to see the year end like this is so frustrating for all concerned.
We had significant overnight and early morning rain which meant that the surface water levels were already very high.
The sudden and very heavy downpour meant that the whole of the playing surface quickly became unplayable.
Once again, we thank everyone for coming today and for their ongoing support for both Gloucestershire and England.
