SURPRISE VISITOR

By Brian Sanderson,

This morning I went up to Weetwood to see Yorkshire under17 against Warwickshire in a two day semi-final.The weather was overcast and the match started at noon.As I arrived Tony Hutton also arrived.Pleased to see him again at a game of cricket.

Yorkshire won the toss and choosed to bowl on a green track.Warwick started well with the Yorkshire bowling being poor.At lunch Warwark were sixty for one.The main bowlers for Yorkshire was Coad,Shaw,Gibson, Whiles and Rhodes.They are all right arm medium bowlers so the bowling was much the same.

After lunch Yorkshire pinned Warwick back to only scoring 65 runs in the two hour session and losing five wickets.We were joined by Mick Bourne who had been down to Arundel to see a cricket tournament and kept us entertained.There was a strong cool wind blowing from the west which made watching uncomfortable.

After tea Yorkshire took another wicket which made them favorite at the present time.However we do not know how strong the Warwick bowling is.

Going to Scarborough to-morrow so hoping the weather is warmer and Yorkshire play well.
