Another century at York.

Posted by Brian Sanderson,

We set off to-day to York again but to a different match.The match was St Peters School against M.C.C.The school is near the ground of York Cricket Club.There was rain over night but it was sunny in the morning.

As usual M.C.C. batted first and in the first forty runs there was twenty -eight extras mainly wides.At lunch they had reached one hundred and thirty for three wickets.It seems the school had played in the every day in the week. They had only lost two matches this season. They looked very tired.

M.C.C. batsman Cooper scored a century in the total of two hundred and thirty- one.He is a ex-pupil of the school. We watch the match from a bank over looking the pitch.
A great view.

The school batted and were thirty for one wicket. St Peters are a better batting side rather than a bowling side.

A excellent venue to watch a century.
