First Day Washout At County Ground
27 April 2014
No play was possible on the opening day of the LV=County Championship match with Essex at Bristol.
Morning showers turned to heavy rain in the afternoon, leaving surface water on the outfield.
Umpires Nigel Cowley and Steve Gale abandoned any prospect of play after the players had taken an early tea at 3.10pm.
The toss had not taken place and the teams have yet to be announced.
Play is due to start tomorrow at 11am.
