Yorkshire U15A vs Nottinghamshire U15, held at Attenborough CC on Sunday 1st July 2018.
Yorkshire 226-5 (Leo Johnson 94, Hector Bowerman 55, Yash Vagadia 25*) beat Nottinghamshire 225-9 (Cooper Smith 3-34) by 5 wickets.
Yorkshire U15A continued their good form in the County Cup by beating Notts by 5 wickets. Notts won the toss and elected to bat on a sweltering day at Attenborough CC, but were reduced to 36-3 by some good opening bowling by Bird and Smith and some sharp fielding by Bowerman. Notts hit back with a fine partnership and Yorkshire’s fielding was a little ragged for the first time this year. Then, a fine spell from Cooper Smith (3-34) left Yorkshire with 225 to chase.
After the early loss of Will Luxton, Bowerman (58) and Johnson (94) compiled a partnership of 163 to put Yorkshire in charge. However, after a flurry of wickets, the pressure was back on. But, once again, Yorkshire found the answers as Yash Vagadia (25*) and skipper Cooper Smith (19*) saw them home.
