at town street. home of carlton cricket club. for bradford league t20 finals day. this is the competition for 3rd and 4th division teams in the bradford league. sandal, in their 3rd final in 4 years take on jerr lane, currently top of division 3. sandal lost last year's final to north owrham fields. they beat heckmondwyke and carlinghaw in the semi final earlier on today here at this venue, racking up 207 for 5, farrak hussain, a magnificent 125. and skittled out their opposition for 116 Result from town Street. And an excellent T-20 final goes the way of jerr lane, who won by 4 wickets with 2 overs to spare. this looked to be a one sided final for a long time, with lane being on top for long periods. sandal, made it to 40 for no loss in 6 overs before a steady procession of wickets fell.

Leaving  them on a seemingly below par total of 108 for nine. With the wickets shared out amongst the lane bowlers.

Lane set off like a train, taking 24 off  the first over with  man of the moment and star of the earlier semi-final in the day farrak hussain smashing 3 sixes before departing with the score on 39. they then lost five wickets for  40 runs to leave them teetering on  79 for 6 with amjad sadiq, a a controlled 4 for 7. before a 31 run partnership calmly guided them home. a fiery encounter, in which the umpires had to step in  several  times to quell tensions in front of a crowd of approximately 60.
