Essex v Yorks (RL Cup Quarter-Final) 1100 start.
Ballance is captain, Duke keeps wicket .Pillans replaces J. Sullivan. Yorkshire are bowling first.
Update 1-Essex 317-7 (innings closed) Rymell 121. Best Yorkshire bowler was Hill with 3-51. Looks like a tough target.
Update 2 - Yorkshire 188 all out . Revis 42. Best Essex bowlers - Plom 3-34, Westley 3-33.
Really needed somebody to get a big score to anchor our innings, but nobody could. We have done quite well to reach this stage with a depleted squad. Good exprience for the young players, and hopefully they can build on that.
Essex won by 129 runs. Yorkshire were eliminated from the competition.
