Another trip to the Dales.

Posted by Brian Sanderson,

On Sunday I decided to go to Hawes again to see Doncaster Railwaymen. This is a team who play friendlies all over Yorkshire. They are based near Mexborough.

The weather was cloundy when we got there and the hills were covered by clounds. The match started at two o,clock with heavy drazzle but the sun soon came out.Doncaster batted first and lost the first wicket after three balls.However soon the ball was going into the river. The pitch to-day was pitched near the river that last time which saved the cars.

Doncaster was short of a scorer so I took over for their innings. One batsman reached 73 eventhough he should have retired at 50.The captain also reached 50 to bring the total to 188.I balanced the scores.

Two hour drive back for tea.
