WOR vs GLO Betting Tips
Adam Hose to score over 24.5 runs
Adam Hose has been Worcestershire's most consistent batter during their recent winning run. He has scored 49 and 47 in two of his last three innings and looks comfortable against both pace and spin. On a good batting surface at New Road, we are backing Hose to anchor another important innings.
Ben Allison to take over 1.5 wickets
Ben Allison has been in excellent rhythm with the ball, picking up two wickets against both Kent and Somerset. The new ball has offered assistance at New Road, and with Gloucestershire relying heavily on their top order, Allison has a strong chance of striking early and finishing with at least two wickets.
Team form (Last 5 matches)
Worcestershire
Gloucestershire
Worcestershire return to New Road looking to extend a strong resurgence in the Vitality T20 Blast. Three wins in their last three outings have reignited their campaign and boosted confidence across the batting and bowling groups.
Gloucestershire arrive with mixed results but a recent thumping of Surrey shows their ceiling is high. The visitors also beat Worcestershire earlier this season by 3 runs, so they will fancy another tight finish on the road.
Worcestershire vs Gloucestershire Head-to-Head Record
Gloucestershire have held the upper hand in this rivalry, winning three of the four meetings on record, including the narrow 3-run win earlier this season. Worcestershire’s lone success came in a five-wicket result, but the broader trend favors Gloucestershire in recent clashes.

WOR vs GLO Toss Prediction
We expect the toss winner to field first at New Road. Recent T20 trends in England on warm, dry evenings have favored chasing as dew can aid strokeplay and reduce grip for spinners late.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
New Road typically offers a true surface with even bounce and value for shots. With temperatures high, the pitch should quicken up, making strokeplay rewarding and keeping par in the 165–175 range if teams bat with intent.
WOR vs GLO: Who Will Win?
We lean slightly towards Worcestershire at home given their three-match winning surge and improved bowling balance. Gloucestershire’s top order, powered by Dawid Malan, keeps this close, but Worcestershire’s recent control with ball and depth with bat tilt the edge. Pro Tip: Back a Worcestershire bowler to take 2+ wickets, with Ben Allison offering value based on recent returns.
Bet on Worcestershire to win.
