GUISELEY 3rd Team VERSUS Kirkstall (Home) - League & Cup

12th May 2002

Guiseley were thoroughly outplayed by a very strong Kirkstall team losing by 131 runs their second loss in as many weeks.
Guiseley got off to a good start  removing both openers with only 45 runs on the board and then reducing Kirkstall to 77 for 4 with Ricky Harrison (3-41) and Lincoln Wray (3-23) bowling their full quota of 10 overs. A fifth wicket partnership of 63 chiefly down to S Robins 65 allowed Kirkstall to post a score of 206 although extras accounted for 33 of these runs. 
In reply, Guiseley got off to a speedy start with Dave Thatcher plundering 9 runs off three balls before he was dismissed and Duncan Archibald soon followed. Guiseley never got going against the superb bowling by R Graves (7-29) and J Thorpe (2-17) and were reduced to 28 for four.A brief flurry from captain Phil Thomas brought some respectability to the score before he to was dismissed by Graves.
Once again the tail failed to 'wag' and captain Phil Thomas will be looking for an improved performance from the team when they visit Colton next week.
