Denaby and Cadeby 85 Yorkshire Main 110
Denaby and Cadeby, who were doing so well in the Doncaster League had to concede 2 points to Yorkshire Main on their own ground on Saturday.
The score of 110 which was secured by the visitors would in ordinary times, and being knocked off by Denaby, with very little effort; but the rot set in early in the match, and G.Wilson (18) was the biggest scorer on the Denaby side McLoughlin was very dangerous with the ball, and he took seven of the Denaby wickets for 30 runs. Narroway was given out LBW, when he had only seven runs to his credit.
