Bradford League: Lamb springs into action for T20 Challenge after late call-up

Pudsey St Lawrence's in-form opening bowler Richie Lamb has received a late call-up to the Bradford Premier League side for tomorrow's T20 Challenge match against a Yorkshire Vikings XI at Pudsey Congs (6pm).

Lamb, the top-flight’s joint leading wicket taker with 15, has been drafted in after team-mate Jordan Thompson – 12th man for England in their first Test win over Sri Lanka at Headingley – was named in the Yorkshire side after originally being picked by the league’s team manager Paul Hutchison.

Yorkshire will be led by county captain Andrew Gale, with the game forming part of his benefit year.
