LOCAL CRICKET TIE.
By Brian Sanderson,
The only cricket I watched yesterday was at Kirkstall Education.They were formed in 1854 and play at this time in The Airedale @ Wharfedale League. The match was a second match in the new Headingley T20 League consisting of ten teams situated round Headingley.They were playing St.Chads Broomfield who play in the Wetherby League who I saw at the begining of the season.
As I arrived St.Chads were batting and I noticed Andy Siddal captaining his old side of Kirkstall.He is now the cricket coach of Leeds Met and plays for Pudsey Congs.As usual Dave Hodson was around just starting the barbecue and talking cricket.St Chads put together a reasonable score of 141 on the small ground.
Kirkstall started off slowly and got to the stage that had to score 90 of ten overs.When Andy Siddal came in the scoring rate increased but was out in the nineth over with 6 runs to win.However they could just scramble a tie.Last week they had also tied with Horsforth Hall Park.A comment on the Kirkstall web-site says the ICC Anti Corruption Unit are taking a keen interest and any unusual betting pattens.
