WAGG WAG THE TAIL

By Brian Sanderson,

Back to cricket after the trip to London.I met Richard Griffiths ,who is Hampshire supporter,to enable him to obtain some signatures of Trevor Jesty who is retiring from umpiring this year as he is 65.The match was a forty over match between Yorkshire and Glamorgan. This could be the final match at Headingley for a forty over mtch as next year it is been changed to 50 overs.Glamorgan were favorites as they required to win the match to have a chance to go to a semi-finals while Yorkshire had a poor side out.

Yorkshire won the toss and batted for some reason. They were soon 7 for 2 which required Hodgson,above,to score 90 which was his highest one-day score.Yorkshire went on to score 215 for 5.Jack Tattersall played his first A type match.

Glamorgan went on to win the match by mulinational side.

Cooke scored 84 and was from South Africa
Allenby scored 40 was from Australia.
North scored 25 from Australia.
Goodwin from South Africa.

Wagg scored 31 with three sixes to win the match with an over to spare.It was good to watch the match in sunshine with Autumn coming on but I wish Yorkshire would have put a stronger side out.
