INTERESTING DAY AT HEADINGLEY


By Brian Sanderson,

On the second day of a Championship match ,I show off some of my cricket memorabilia and answer questions on cricket. One item I brought along was a membership ticket for Bridlington in 1930.During the lunch time interval a member came up to say he start playing cricket at Bridlington.

During this time Yorkshire were bowled out for 308.Lancashire openers Smith and Hameed advanced to 40 -0.Then they were two of seven wickets to fall for another 46 runs as the visitors slumped to 92-7.

They later avoided the follow-on by passing 159 as Liam Livingstone 60 not out underpinned a lower order recovery,yet they failed to register a batting point in being bowled out inside 61 overs at tea time for a total of 196.

After tea Yorkshire struggled to reach 77 for 3 with Lyth on 44 not out. Patterson had to come out as night watchman.Earlier he had taken his 300 th first class wicket.A under rated cricketer and a pleasant young man.
