GUISELEY 1st Team VERSUS Adel (Home) - Friendly 

20th April 2002

Guiseley were undone by a strong Adel team consisting of first and second team players who batted Guiseley out of the game. S Wardley scored a run a ball 82 and was ably supported by D Weston (23) and I Bath (27).B. Hill kept the momentum going with 47 not out as Adel finished on 252 for the loss of seven wickets. Guiseley's bowlers performed well despite being there first run out with young prospect Ricky Harrison taking 3 wickets for 56 runs while 'old stagers' Adam Perring (1-8) and Adrian Threapleton (1-30) bowled tightly. 
A special mention needs to be made for stand in keeper Darren Smith who kept things tight behind the stumps despite not keeping for a number of years.
Guiseley got off to a poor start with Ian Colquhoun going for 9 runs but the third wicket partnership of David Ross (26) and Graeme Wolfenden (43) boosted Guiseley's chances of a victory before both went in quick succession. It was left to captain Nick Fraser (43) to lead the run chase but this proved to much as wickets fell at the other end. This left Joe Davies and Ricky Harrison to see out the last over which they managed but Guiseley were still some 40 runs short.
Despite the loss there were a number of promising signs for the league campaign ahead and this match hopefully will have blown a few 'cobwebs' away from the winter months.
