By Brian Sanderson,
Over the last few days I have been making a choice between Leeds rugby and cricket. After looking at the weather forecast which said it would be fine, the cricket won.There was frost on the ground but the sun was shining and was warm in the sun.
As I arrived there was Tony Hutton ,Jenny and Ian from Lancaster. Good to see them again after the cricket at Addingham. The match was a twenty over not as stated on the programme 30 overs.North Leeds batted first with fancy dressed fielders from the Northern Cricket Society.
The match was sponered by Santa.
Sitting in the sunshine we watched North Leeds opposite the club house which is been improved.
They scored 151 in the twenty overs with no batsmen scoring more than fifty runs.Northern Cricket started poorly with two wickets in two balls.It was up to Howard Johnston of St. Chads Broomfield to score over fifty runs and Dennis Rock of Hall Park fame scored a excellent 35 .The final over was bowled by Steve Bindman who informed us that it was his first match for North Leeds.

The final score of the match with Glynn Pearson talking again.Great to see everybody in the Professional Cricket Watchers but Brian Senior was missed.Tony has hoping to find the exact date of the Malham cricket match in January 2014.
