WORCESTERSHIRE Rapids will be in front of the Sky Sports cameras four times before the end of June, including two games at New Road.

The Rapids launch their NatWest T20 Blast campaign against Durham Jets at New Road on Friday, May 20 at 5.30pm.

Skipper Daryl Mitchell and his players will appear in front of the cameras for the first time in the much-anticipated local derby with Birmingham Bears at Edgbaston at 7pm on Friday, May 27.

The two matches with the Bears are always amongst the highlights of the season, with both sides reaching the quarter-finals in 2015.




Six days after the Bears clash, the Rapids will again be live on Sky, this time at New Road when they welcome Yorkshire Vikings at 5.30pm on Thursday, June 2.

The two sides will clash again on Tuesday, June 7 at Headingley, this time in the Royal London One-Day Cup, and that is also a Sky match.


On Saturday, June 18, armchair viewers can watch the Rapids in home action in the T20 Blast against Nottinghamshire at 2.30pm.

There may also be further chances to watch the Rapids on TV once Sky announce their schedule for later in the summer.

The England Women-Pakistan Women ODI on Wednesday, June 22 at New Road will also be shown live on Sky.
