Semi Final Of cup
OLD Sharlston reached the Pontefract League's Dyson-Skidmore Trophy final for the first time by edging out Featherstone in a thrilling semi-final on Sunday.
Batting first, Sharlston suffered an early blow when they lost influential skipper Dale McMulllan with the score on seven.
Sharlston's batsmen struggled to cope with the pace of Featherstone's Bart Thompson and Nev Lindsay but it was young paceman Jamie Robinson who did most damage, taking 4-27 to reduce the visitors to 89-6. Jason Ball rescued Sharlston with an excellent unbeaten 85. He put on 108 with Simon Ward who hit a rapid 67 as Sharlston closed on 203-7.
Featherstone made a solid start in reply with James Dunn (49) and Justin Miller (31) batting well.
Dunn was then joined by Dave Hiorns (41no) in a 71-run stand as Featherstone made steady progress.
Thompson added a quick 21 but it wasn't enough because Featherstone fell 13 runs short of victory, finishing on 191-6.
McMullan claimed 3-39 and Mark Reeves took 2-33.
After 30 overs, Sharlston were 123 and Featherstone were 125. The difference between the sides was Ward's excellent innings.
