ANOTHER FULL CAR

Posted by Brian Sanderson,

This morning I set off with Bob Procter, Brian Senior and Jeff Wilson to Trent Bridge. The match was Yorkshire against Nottingham on the second day. On the first 18 wickets had fallen.Yorkshire were 260 for 8.The weather on the way down was misty and the match did not start until 11.15.

Trent Bridge is the best Northern Test Ground with excellent facilities.We sat out side the pavilion to watch Yorkshire final two wickets fall quickly however Gale reached 151 , his highest first class score.

During lunch we went to Nottingham Cricket Library to show Bob the numerous cricket books and to meet Peter Wynne- Thomas who runs the library.Whilst we were there Hales was out for 24.Wagh came in next for his final innings at Trent Bridge before he joins his new job outside cricket.

Franks was next out caught by Rudolph off Rashid for 79.Rashid then got Wagh caught by Pyrah for 90. He marched off the pitch very angry.The Australian Voges was then out for 72.

At the end of the day Nottingham were 357 for 6 with Reed and Pattinson batting.

To-morrow will be very interesting and both sides can still win.
