INTERNATIONAL MATCH AT HEADINGLEY

Posted by Brian Sanderson,

The match at Headingley to-day is Yorkshire v Netherlands in the Clydesdale Bank 40 overs Group B.

As the match does not start until 1.45 I can catch up on outstanding e-bay problems.
Arriving at the match Yorkshire are fielding and notice some names of the Dutch side I do not know.

Eric SZWARCYNSKI-born South Africa.
Michael DIGHTON-born Queensland.Played for Derbyshire, Hampshire,Tasmania and Western Australia
Tom COOPER- born New South Wales.
Bas Zuiderent-played Sussex
Peter BORREN -born New Zealand.
Muddassar BUKHARI- born Pakistan
Mohammad Kashif-born Pakistan.

There was still the cold westerly wind but the sun shined.
Ron was sitting in the Rugby stand but no Andy. It seemed he was suffering from food poisoning.Part of the Western Terrace was open and gradually the students occupied the sets with beer glasses.

Best got the first wicket and did his aeroplane impression.Dighton batted well and reached 62 when Best got his second wicket. Guess what? another aeroplane.
Holland were 125 for 6 and looked like they would collapse. However Bukhari batted well to get to 49 not out and Holland reached 200. A reasonable total and Yorkshire should win.

Saw Ron Deaton at half time and arranged to met him on Wednesday to see two new grounds in North Yorkshire.

Yorkshire opened with a good partnership with Gale and Rudolph.Gale got stumped of Kashif for 38 but they had put on 81.Rudolph was the key and had to stop there to win the game.Yorkshire lost 6 wickets whilst scoring 100 runs.The bowling was steady and Rudolph won the match by hitting a six and he had scored 83 not out.A
innings that won the match. The over rate was good and the match finished at 6.45.
Yorkshire still unbeaten in the 40 over games.
