Big showdown ends in draw


Earby 145 for 5, Clitheroe 187 for 8 THE big showdown between the Ribblesdale Senior League’s two leading clubs


fizzled out into a disappointing draw on Saturday. Earby put Clitheroe into bat


and, after being set a target of 187, puzzled some observers by failing to make a bolder at­ tempt to win the match.


Only when they had crawled


to 73* for 3 from 30 overs did they begin to push the score


along, with Stephen Gee and John Gibb together. Their late effort came to an


end in the 43rd over when lan Austin bowled Gee for 61. Gibb was bowled by Jordan in the following over for 48 and Earby finished 42 runs adrift of the Clitheroe total. The Clitheroe innings had

been given a good start by Jordan and Keith Fawcett. The pair had put on 66 in 18 overs when Fawcett, who had played some excellent cover drives, was caught behind for 29. Austin kept the runs flowing


until being adjudged lbw when on 35. In the 34tn over Jordan hit Stead for three successive 6s but was caught on the boundary attempting a fourth,


having scored 68. Neil Duckworth scored


steadilv, but lost partners reg- ularlv and only Stephen Black­ burn managed to reach double figures in the late run chase. Clitheroe finished on 187 for


S leaving Earbv a run rate of 4.15 for victory. They started well, hitting 17 off the first four overs, b ut then the Clitheroe bowlers tightened up. Austin took the first wicket


in the 21st over, bowling Pick­ les with the score at 53. He had Meadows caught two overs later and with his next ball
