This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
At one stage it looked as if Yorkshire 2nd XI could win the match after enforcing the follow on, but a seventh wicket partnership of 125 runs between Wetherall and Horton ensured the game was drawn.
It was the second highest partnership for that wicket during the season.
For the visitors, there was 1 five, 4 fours, 2 threes and 5 twos in Washington's 101, while Frank's 45 included 1 six and 7 fours.
For the home team there was 1 five and 8 fours in Wetherall's 77 not out.
[Missing: In Yorkshire inns there are two versions one based on YSB/YYB with total of 277 and Bedford scoring 9, and another based on YP and all other sources listed with total of 275 and Bedford scoring 7 -- Wisden has total 277 in Yorks 2nd XI section, and 275 in Northants -- views sought; in Northamptonshire 2nd inns take view on whether to go for YSB/YYB version of T Smith conceding 31 runs and Bedford 74, or YP/Northants sources version of 30 and 75 respectively. Should the overall approach be to check and confirm YSB version as 'official score' and refer to main differences in a footnote?
Or should the 'version' be the one that is in line with the respective averages of the two counties?]
