North Leeds CC 2nds put on a convincing and professional performance for an away day victory at Adel.
Put into bat on a mossy deck, apprehensive with the injury of The pizza boy!!
26 overs later wer'e sat pretty on 175 for 1 oh and 2!!.Loose bowling and poor fielding helping Paul Philips to an unbeaten maiden ton (great knock PP) and Westy to 80.

After a brief observation of the obvious ( bowl straight, stop it and catch it) Abid and The Laq did exactly that and at 21 for 0 off 8, any chance of Adel challenging our total had poofed away into the Adel skyline.
The opposition skipper chanced his arm with a gutsy 43, but he ulfilled his suicide wishes as Mr P picked up, closed his eyes, chucked and hit and sent him for an early shower!!
Abid's 2 for 30 in 15 was the epitamy of control.
Fadi Laq did not bowl a single No Ball! Good job 2 for 44 off 12
Plums just managed an average with 1 for 1 off 4.
With a full over allowance, we surely would have turned the screw for all 6 points.A 5-1 win was great reward for a thoroughly convincing and professional performance.
Keep it going boys!
