at barnsley road, for heavy woolen cup 2nd round action. where sandal take on gomersal. 

sandal eased through their first round tie with a convincing victory over cross bank methodists, whilst gomy had a by. this is 3rd division vs 2nd division in bradford cricket league standings. gomersal are 4 points clear at the top of div 2, whilst its 2 wins from 3 for ambitious sandal who are making their debut in the cup this year. they are fairly new to the bradford league, having joined the set up from the pontefract league several years ago. 

tremendous effort from the ground staf to get play under way today following yesterday's deluge of rain.

result from barnsley road, and the underdogs sandal were on the end of a right royal shellacking at the hands of gomersal, the with gommy crushing them by 286 runs. 

this had the very vague whiff of a cup upset at the outsett, but turned out to be anything but. 

gomersall amassing 362 all out, with a magnificent 131 from graham hilton, 68 from lee geldard, and 52 from jonathan boynton. 

mathew westwood, 36 the only sandal player to offer any form of token resistance, with wickets shared around in both innings by both sets of bowlers. gomersal will be eagerly awaiting tonight's quarter final draw. 

and sandal being dispatched for a pultry 76 all out.
