Worcestershire players remember spinner Josh Baker

BBC Hereford and Worcester’s Frank Watson was pitchside as the players remembered Baker.

“It got to me and I think one or two of the players more than we might have thought it would,” he said.

“It was just such an emotional thing, even before the minute’s applause, that moment when everyone was silent was quite touching.

“It’s still very raw, it was a real shock and I don’t think anybody knows what the reaction is going to be.”

Baker played 47 games in all formats for Worcestershire, taking 70 wickets, including two County Championship matches this season.

Worcestershire chief executive Ashley Giles said the death of Baker had left everyone at the county “devastated”.

The club has not said how he died.
