One feature of a so far low-scoring game this week at Lord's was Worcestershire’s teenage spinner Josh Baker yesterday claiming his maiden first-class half-century.

It turns out that not only is this the 18-year-old Worcestershire-born Malvern College pupil's first game at the home of cricket, he had never actually been as a spectator either.

“I’ve never been to Lord’s before,” Baker told BBC Hereford & Worcester. “So it’s really nice to get a first-class fifty and do it here, of all places."

After finishing 11 not out overnight on Sunday, he went on to finish unbeaten on 61. And that was a massive improvement on the total of 18 he had managed in his previous four innings . . . 12*, 5, 0, 1.

It improved his career average from 6.00 to 26.33 in one knock!

“I was trying to play positively and be proactive after a couple of weeks of getting ducks and stuff," added Baker, who made his Pears debut shortly after leaving school in June, after sitting his A levels. "So I changed it up a bit.”
