Rawtenstall 3rd XI61, Whalley 2nd XI 65 for 2


THE combined strike-force of Lee Burgess and Lee Kearsley destroyed Rawtenstall at New Hall Hey on Saturday. Burgess used the breeze to


full advantage as his away- stvingers constantly beat the


bat. At the other end, Kearsley bowled quickly and accurately to


tie Rawtenstall up. After Burgess took the iirst


wicket, with the score on 11, the two Lees never looked back, taking the next five for the addition of only 10 runs. Fletcher was the pick of the

WHALLEY suffered their first defeat of the season on Saturday and they will be kicking themselves for doing so


The glum expressions


on the Whalley players’ faces after the match said it all, as they somehow contrived to lose a match th a t th e y looked like

tion was Tasmanian off-spinner Martin Bowerman, who took seven wickets, including the


man’s first victim. At 85 for 1, Whalley were still


very much up with the required run-rate, but John Kearsley


went the same way as Watson, and that was to signal the home team’s collapse. _ . __ Whalley appeared to think
