McGrath 79, but Bearcubs crush White Rosebuds
News categories
Anthony McGrath, pictured, cheered Yorkshire with a match top score of 79 yesterday in his first Second Eleven Championship game for six years as he fights to return to a struggling first-team batting line-up after injury.
Yet the honours go to Warwickshire, who won by seven wickets 40 minutes after tea on Day 3 at the Bull's Head Ground, Coventry - thanks to all-rounder Keith Barker, whose match figures of 11-69 entered the record books as the best in the Championship for Warwickshire against Yorkshire to go with his top score 69 in the Bearcubs' first innings.
Yorkshire gave Championship debuts to four young players: Academy batsmen George Ross and Jack Leaning, wicket-keeper and batsman James Tattersall, from Harrogate, and bowler Iain Wardlaw, from Dewsbury. Leaning was to make the most impact - scoring a maiden 50, with Tattersall chipping in 31 in Yorkshire's first innings of 196.
Barker struck seven times in Yorkshire's first innings, his haul costing a mere 43 runs and a first entry in the record books as the best bowling in an innings for Warwickshire against Yorkshire - expunging a record that stood for 50 years!
Putting his batting gloves on, the all-rounder struck the best innings for his side, taking them to a lead of 102 - but the innings ended with the last ball of the 100th over and a total two short of a fourth batting point. Ben Sanderson was the pick of the Yorkshire bowlers: his 4-25 return was not as dramatic as Barker's, but was creditable nonetheless.
The deficit was one run from being wiped out at stumps on Day 2 - Geldart's 50 coming off the last ball of the evening. On the third morning it was a question of how many could be added to give the bowlers the chance of bowling Warwickshire out...but six wickets were lost, three of them to Barker, as 87 runs were added. There was a stalwart performance from McGrath, but his seven partners could not match his performance between them.
Warwickshire needed 118 to win off the 45 overs remaining: three wickets were captured, but Barker came in to seal the victory with 10 of the runs needed off four balls. He surely was the man of the match.
Not a good start to Yorkshire’s Championship season - played two, lost two. There are four weeks to the next match - time to regroup and to get the season going.
Meanwhile, it's the pyjama game with the inaugural Second Eleven Twenty20 competition. Headingley on Wednesday and Thursday next week will see four matches played. It sounds like a sales promotion - two matches for the price of one each day...except that it’s free!
See you at the check-out!
