Second day of the Surrey four day match with the forecast not good.Before the match started there was a Supporters forum about the problems of watching cricket.Yorkshire supporters were saying they could not sit behind the bowlers arm at the Kirkstall Lane and the reply was that Pointing wanted a larger sightscreen.However Pointing was not playing as he injured his wrist on Friday.
Yorkshire only but on 12 runs before rain stopped play but lost a wicket.Early lunch again was taken.When I arrived back Gale and Plunkett were batting.Gale was first out for 148.Slow going during to-day.During the rain interruptions the talk was how you could increase Yorkshire membership and how they would reduce their financial deficit.Mr and Mrs Plunkett were sitting in front of me to watch Liam score 51 off 79 balls.
Yorkshire finally declared on 433 for 9.The feeling was that Yorshire had batted too long but we will see.
After I had left Brookes claimed a wicket of Harinath with the score 53 for 1.
To-morrow I am doing a memorabilia opened day at Headingley. So it will be interesting to see how it goes. This is the 900 post on this blog.
