Slideshow: Hanging Heaton reach Priestley Shield final
Holders Hanging Heaton exacted their revenge on Morley as they booked a place in the Sovereign Health Care Priestley Shield final.
A week ago, Morley were celebrating a victory over Heaton in the last four of the Crowther Cup but the Priestley Shield holders exacted revenge with a six-wicket success.
Morley racked up 342-6 when they beat Hanging Heaton by 153 runs in the Crowther Cup, largely thanks to opener Sam Medley’s brilliant 171, but this time he was out for a duck as his side made 214-9.
