FIRST TIME I HAVE BEEN WARM IN EIGHT MONTHS

By Brian Sanderson,

A car full of five people set of to the best county ground in Yorkshire,Scarborough.It takes about one and half hours by car from Leeds but when you drive to the town everbody are happy to go.The weather was beautiful with the sunshining which was a contrast to yesterday.

The match was Yorkshire Seconds playing Lancashire in a three day friendly.Yorkshire were batting first with Lees and Sayers with about twenty people watching the match which is a shame.I talked to a Yorkshire member who did not know the match was on  so something must be wrong.

By lunch-time Yorkshire were four wickets down  in thirty-three overs and scoring ninty runs.I went into the pavilion which have some beautiful photographs but they are in refective glass which makes it hard to see and will ruin the pictures due to light effecting the tone.

After lunch the sun was shining and people started taking off their weather clothing and enjoying the sunshine.Sayers and Leaning put together a centurty stand but both got out and Yorkshire collapsed to 201 for nine.Then Coad and Randhawa put on a last wicket stand of 47.

We decided to go home when the Yorkshire innings ended as I am going up to Durham to-morrow.Hope the weather  stays the same  as to-day.
