On Saturday we set of to Cleethorpe with Ron and my wife.It takes about 90 minutes to the ground from Leeds. It is situated on the South side of the prom. There is a sign on the main road to the ground.
When we arrived I parked next to Mollie.Margaret went to shops in the town and we watched the match.
Cleethorpes had signed Peter Fulton who is a New Zealand international. His nicknamed "Two metre Peter" has played 10 Test matches ,41 ODI,s and 11 T20.
Cleethorpe won the toss and decided to bat.The Academy captain was Alex Lees.
Fulton and Kirby opening the batting.Fulton was bowled out by Killer Hargreaves.I am sure Fulton will score many runs this season.
Ashraf bowled well for seven overs for 14 runs.
However it was the spinners who bowled Cleethorpes for 165. Randhawa bowled 6 for 51 and Jack Hughes 2 for 30.
At half-time the Academy were favorite however the team was very inexperenced.They started well until leg spinner Alex Osmond came on to bowl.It was him and Fulton bowled out the Academy for 143. Osmond took 45 for 4 and Fulton 9 for 3.
They players will learn quickly hopefully during the season.
