Return Fixture

Posted by Brian Sanderson,

On Wednesday I picked up Ron Stansfield and set out for New Rover. The match was Yorkshire Academy v Durham Academy.The weather was cloudy and a sneaky cold wind.
When we got there Mollie Staines was giving out the teas. Mollie has watched Yorkshire since 1947 and is very interested in the Academy.
Durham bat first in the 45 over match and losed a quick wicket.The next batsman was Ramanpreet Singh , I name to remember. He born in Newcastle and is 17 years old. On Friday he scored 50 retired to-day he scored 100 retired with beautiful shots.
Durham reached 246 in the forty five overs to much for Yorkshire.
Durham opened bowling with Jamie Harrison ,educated at Sedbergh school. He is a fast left -arm bowler to good for Yorkshire again.
John Abrahams was there on behalf of England under19.I spoke to Ramanpreet father who said his son is looking to be picked for England under19.
Durham have a excellent set-up is the lending County in England all through the ages.
