FC match 2 Yorkshire vs Notts.

We got off to a decent start even as Vic Holmes was bowled for 22 by Thornicroft. Husseys ton and Kempstons 75 gave Notts a decent 1st innings total.
A steady flow of wickets and some economical bowling from the Notts bowlers Shreck, Footitt and Reid gave the away side a 2 runs 1st innings lead. Wood top scored with a fine 82 for yorks and he really looked dangerous until bowled by shreck.
An excellent opening partnership from Moore and Holmes started the 2nds innings off nicely. when moore fell lbw to hoggard, Hussey continued the good work with a fine 135. Nobody else really contributed adn the last 5 wickets fell for under 20 runs.
2 early wickets from Sidebottom put notts on the front foot. Another fine bowling performance from reid and sidebottom kept Notts on top but a fighting 89* from pyrah gave Yorks a draw.
Although Hussey was awarded MOM in the game, i think Reids 7 wickets was also a fine contribution in a match which Notts should have won.
