Tony Hutton very kindly e-mail me to say the start at Sleaford for England Under 19 against Yorkshire Seconds was 10.30 not 11.00.Tony had been to the first day of the match and saw Will Rhodes score 116 not out for England who scored 272 for 3 in 60 overs.
When myself and Brian Workman arrived we saw Callis for Yorkshire score 124 not out in a Yorkshire total of 256 for 3 in 50 overs.We were told that Yorkshire would bat for 60 overs but there was a change of plan and they only had 50 overs.
The two openers for England were Joe Clarke and Edward Barnard who both come from Worcestershire and we saw at York two weeks ago.On a batsman wicket they put on 90 runs in 19 overs.Robert Jones, from Lancashire, came in number 3 and scored 75 not out in a total of 258 for 3 in 62 overs.
So this match had produced 786 runs for just 9 wickets so who would be a bowler on this wicket.
Yorkshire were left to score 274 in 37 overs. To their credit they had a go to win the match with Dan Hodgson been outstanding by scoring 76 in 56 balls.Yorkshire finished with a total of 232 for 8 to draw the match.
England under 19 move on to play South Africa A in a two test match series and 5 one day matches.The first match is at Fenners on Friday. Below is a photograph of Callis coming off the field after his century.
