To-day was a short journey by car to Undercliffe and was met by Gerry of Middlesex fame.As the match was a two day match between Yorkshire under19,s against Middlesex under19,s.The first day was finished by a thunderstom which flooded the ground when Middlesex were all out for 258.This was helped by 10 and 11 batemen scoring 66.
I sat in the shade with Tony Hutton and Malcom to watch Yorkshire bat.At lunch-time they seem to be set to equal Middlesex score as they were four wickets down for 140 with Eddie Wilson batting well.During the innings David Thorpe and Brian Senior arrived at the ground.There was talk of another person from Huddersfield coming but this did not happen.
After lunch Yorkshire innings collapsed to be all out for about 180 with Eddie scoring 60.There was a programme to-day so we were able to find out the name of the players and the scoreboard but the players numbers up including the bowlers. Well done.
Middlesex batted again to set Yorkshire a target of 194 in twenty-five overs.However as I was leaving Yorkshire had lost six wickets for about 80 with 10 over to bowl.A poor show by Yorkshire and Middlesex were the better side which pleased Jerry.
