Brothers in arms Bhuddi and Dinuk Mirando bowled Ben Johnson in to the final of the Guy Mitchell Cup.

Bhuddi took 4-25 and his sibling 4-49 as Heworth were bowled out for 123, Greg Sykes top scoring with 40.

The printers were made to work hard by Ian Middleton (3-25) but Martyn Reynolds (42) and Jamie Agnew (35) took them to a four-wicket win.

They will meet division one side Barmby Moor in the final at Hemingbrough on Sunday, August 15.

Moor saw off Kelfield by 101 runs in their semi-final but at 41-4 after 15 overs didn’t look like posting a big total. All that changed when Sam Appleton came to the crease to join Barry Shepherdson (71no). Appleton smashed 77 off a mere 29 deliveries, caning six sixes and seven fours as Moor finished on 207-9.

Kelfield were never in contention, Tony Smith taking 5-39 as they were bowled out for 106.
