Saturday 19 June 2021.

its yet another glorious sun drenched saturday afternoon and today's live action comes from  rishworth park,  for bradford premier cricket league 4th division action between cross flats, 2nd, and liversedge, 10th and 3rd from bottom. 

flats are 5 points behind leaders brighouse, and this is their debut season in the league, having joined from the craven league last term, and having swept all   before them in that competition. 

liversedge joined from the now defunked central yorkshire league in 2016 which merged with the bradford league to make 4 divisions but have never managed to make it out of the basement division since the merger. 

 

 

 cross flats batting first.

result from rishworth park. excellent game which ebbed and flowed through out and an aggrigate of 594 runs in the day's play went the way of cross flats. they slid to 116 for 7, then 175 for 8, before an unbroken ninth wicket partnership between dominic bennett, who came in number 3 and plundered 144 not out with 19 4s and 7 sixes and mohammed shanawaz, batting number 10 with 66. in reply, ruban shuttleworth scored 75 for liversedge, but they appeared to be falling further and further behind the rate before alex willis, 61 and will atkin 81 took then to to within 47 runs before both were dismissed in quick succession. some spirited lusty lower hitting though was in vain. 19 points for cross flats and 9 for liversedge. excellent game. 

cross flats getting home by 12 runs and liversedge finishing on 291 for 9. flats strengthen their grip on 2nd place with brighouse also victorious yesterday to stay top.

 at ewen fieles, home of hyde united for manchester premier cup final, fc united of manchester, 14th in conference north vs trafford, just outside play offs in step 4 northern league division 1 north.  fc won this conpetition on a barmy evening last may at oldham's boundary park, and with them having secured safety last week will be hoping to retain their crown.  trafford will be hoping to spring a cup upset.  but the weather is far from barmy here in east manchester this evening. late drama at ewen fields.  ft 2 each.  trafford better side in first half, much more cohetion, and appeared to watt it more.  2 each at ht, with fc coming behind both times.  traford man sent off in 2nd half which gave fc momentum but they could not make the extra man count.  game went to penalties.  this sparked panic amongst some  fans, some of whom hurried to the car park which closed at ten pm and aiming to avoid their car being empounded before the cut off time.    the rest of us charged down the ot
