2019 has long been touted as the ‘biggest year’ for international cricket in England, and Emerald Headingley will be at the forefront of this.
Hosting a plethora of high-profile fixtures, including an Ashes Test match and four ICC Cricket World Cup games, the famous old ground has somewhat of a new look. The brand-new, state-of-the-art, Emerald Stand will be open for the first time as England take on Pakistan in the Fifth Royal London One-Day International on Sunday 19th May.
Essex won the toss and elected to bowl. Finlay Bean and Will Bennison opened cautiously adding 33 when at the end of the 10th over the bowler Newman got a touch on a straight drive from Bean and unfortunately Bennison was out of his ground – run out for 18. Harry Duke was caught at slip for 3 and Jawad Akhtar departed in the same way for 6.
Yorkshire’s Will Bennison, Owen Smith and Brad Sylvester have all been called up for the England U19’s and Invitational XI sides, respectively.
