Broken Man
A disconsolate Pocklington batsman heads back to the Hudson's Lane pavilion after dismissal during a Foss Evening Cricket League First Division derby against Wolds neighbours North Dalton. The visitors, beaten by 10 wickets, didn't have too many reasons to be cheerful on the opening night of the 2016 season.
Only midweek matches are played on this ground, created in a farmer's field about 1960. The farmer is the club secretary. The 'pavilion' lacks facilities, including showers, which means North Dalton's first XI have to play their York & District Senior League home games at neighbouring Middleton-on-the-Wolds.
Match statistics: Pocklington 113-6 off 18 overs (Curtis Robb 29, Billy Higgins 26, George Baty 25no, Mark Brent 3-29) lost by 10 wickets to North Dalton 117-0 off 16 overs (Ricky Woodmansey 72no, Mark Clarkson 26no). Admission: free. Programme: none. Attendance 8.
