By Brian Sanderson,
I stayed local to-day and went to Undercliffe were Yorkshire under19 were playing Middlesex.
Undercliffe are a club that has been established since 1875 and have been one of the main clubs in the Bradford League. I watched the under 19 win at Rotherham recently but to-day they were missing some Academy players who were playing elsewhere.Middlesex were a stronger side including Adam Rossington,wicket-keeper,who has played two first class matches.
Arriving I was soon told off by Peter France stating in yesterday blog I should have said Mac Queen played for Broad Oak rather than Paddock this season.A minus point to me.
Yorkshire were batting with Good and Gorod opening the batting against seven bowlers.At lunch Yorkshire were 89 for 1 looking secure.After eating the magnificent apple pie Middlesex bowler started taking wickets.At tea they were 182 for 7 with Mc Kendry from York batting well.
I moved on to Weetwood together with Tony Hutton to watch the finish of the fifty over match between Yorkshire under17 and Derbyshire under 17.Derbyshire were batting and had lost four wickets for eighty chasing Yorkshire 223.We were told Will Rhodes had scored some more runs.He is in rich vein of form at rhe present time,Jenny was there enjoying the sunshine and cricket.Derbyshire captain was Greg Cork, son of the first class cricketer and the county were left to score 120 in about twenty overs.
Yorkshire fielding was poor giving runs away and it was left to Free to bowl the last over Derbyshire wanting eleven runs .He started off with a wide and a bye.However Yorkshire won by two runs in the end.A excellent finish in sunshine.
Yorkshire seconds won for the first time in two years bowling University out for 202 and Hannon-Dalby took another four wickets.I s this start of a new era for him.We will see this seaon.
It seems the Russains like the blog so please carry on reading our visits to cricket grounds.
