Sedman was the man who saw


them both off, Hall caught by Har­ vey for 20 and Fielding caught and bowled for 15. Harvey then bowled Seedle for one


and, with Clitheroe struggling on 46-6, it looked as if Earby might snatch an unlikely victory. But with plenty of overs left all it


needed was som body to hang around and Mick Dewhurst was the man to deliver, scoring a match-winning unbeaten 58 in the


process. He was supported by Andy Robin­


son who had made 22 before Har­ vey had him caught by Hipgrave.


But it was too late to save Earby


and Clitheroe passed the winning score with three overs and three wickets to spare. Clitheroe followed up that crucial


triumph with a 36-run win against Baxenden at Chatburn Road on


Sunday. The locals had first use o f the


wicket, and despite losing Neil and Mark Bolton cheaply, Robinson and Hall put on a superb stand of


126 which set up Clitheroe for the victory. The pair ran well between the


wickets and also peppered the boundary with regularity until Hall was caught behind having made 64. Professional Fielding couldn't stick


around with Robinson, and Whal­ iey was dismissed on six, although he and Robinson had shared 28. Whalley's was the last wicket to


fall though, and Robinson went on to complete a fine century, with Dewhurst helping him see the overs out as Clitheroe finished on 217-5. Robinson ended unbeaten on 104,


hit off 145 balls, including 12 fours. Clitheroc’s attack struck early as


they defended their total, with Simon Bishop having Collins caught behind by Robinson with the score on four in the second over. Baxenden’s top order batsmen


then strung together three decent partnerships to give their side a chance of victory. Professional Payne and Rishton steadied the ship, sharing 35 before


Payne was run out on 25, and skip­ per Bushell joined Rishton to add 52, o f whcich Rishton was the major contributor with his captain trapped by Seedle on nine. Rishton was finally out on 72,


bowled by Fielding, but only after a stand of 44 with Mortimer, tak­ ing Baxenden to 135-4. But the locals managed to disrupt


the run chase with a flurry of wick­ ets after that, although the bonus points proved elusive. Dewhurst got in on the act, having Mortimer caught behind after a quickfire 34 with another 15 runs on the board, and Jackson followed via a run out. Dewhurst then bowled Hargreaves

J 1,1 Easy win for Chatburn


CONVINCINGLY beating Glusbum, Chatburn seconds eased to an 87-run victory


on Saturday. The locals batted first and


were given a solid start by Clough (26) and John Trot­ ter (20), but then followed a


collapse. Respectability was restored


with an unbeaten stand of 65 between Geoff Lambert


(46) and Brian Jones (17), resulting in a final score of


142-8. Glusburn had no answer to


the bowling and fielding of Chatburn, with no batsman reaching double figures. Jones (3-23) and Clarkson


(3-27) took the bulk of the wickets as the visitors were


skittled for 55, while debu­ tant Matthew Bibby was


directly responsible for two of the three run-outs. Chatburn: 142-8- P. Clough

badly with Nawaz failing again when he was caught and bowled by Barlick pro­ fessional James Peterson without scoring. Graham Bardlsey followed


after making five with the score on just six. Read were then reduced to


just 10-3 when Little was next to go, caught by Brown off Stead. With Parsons and King


both going cheaply Read were in real trouble at 42-5 off just 18 overs. Then came the rescue act


from Peter Usher and O’ Connor — Usher had made a valuable 51 by the time he was ou t with the Read score having been pushed on to 86-6. Shirtcliffe and O’Connor


took the score past the 100 mark, but with 141 on the board Shirtcliffe was run out for 22. Overs eventually ran out


with the score on 161-8 — O’ConnOr still there having made a fine unbeaten 54.


Scothern and Lord opened


the Barlick innings and started off well taking the score to 24 before Lord was bowled by Heyworth for 19.


Heyworth struck again to


see o f f Naylor for 19 and Peterson joined the fray. With 13 overs left


Bamoldswick required 83 runs to win and remained in the driving seat until Manville and Barker both went quickly to leave Barlick with 35 runs to gel off the


last four overs. Heyw’orth, the pick o f


Read’s attack, took the vital wicket of Peterson when he was caught in the deep by Nawaz and the balance swung in Read’s favour. Nawaz removed Whipp for


six and then clean bowled Harker in the same over before Kingdon fell to Hey­ worth and Nawaz finished things off, bowling Charnley to take the final Barlick wicket with the score on 138.


This weekend sees the two


teams meet up again for the Ramsbottom Cup final — a match will be a 48 over affair with both sides needing five bowlers.


A different venue — the


match with be played at Clitheroe — and a big crowd will surely provide the ingre­ dients for a real thriller.


Before then Read will hope


to regain some ground in the title race when they enter­ tain Baxenden on Saturday.


A SUPERB opening partnership of 184 from Paul Mackintosh and John Kearsley set Whaliey up for their third win of the season and the dou­ ble over Edenfield on Saturday at Gincroft Lane. Mackintosh made a century, with Kearsley not far


behind on 78, Whaliey finishing on 227-7. And the Whaliey bowlers backed up the baiting perfor­


mance. with Dave O’Neill again outstanding, helping restrict Edenfield to 173-8 in reply. Mackintosh and Kearsley looked immovable at the wicket


as they found the boundary with regularity and ran well between the wickets.


’ f“


They brought up three fig­ ures together, and were well


on the way to the 200 mark when they were finally sep­ arated on 184, Mackintosh stumped by Bums o f f pro­ fessional Keith Roscoe.


Macintosh had made 101,


including 10 fours and four sixes in almost two hours at the crease.


Whaliey paid man Mark


Fallon fell to Roscoe with a n o th e r 12 runs on the b o a rd , and R o s c o e then c laimed his third vic tim , seeing o f f Kearsley on 78 with the score on 197.


Four more wickets fell in


the rem a in in g ov ers, Roscoe going on to take 5- 55 off 16 overs, with Whal­ iey setting an intimidating


total of 2277. E d en f ie ld sk ip p e r John


Kershaw and Burns pu t together a decent start to th e ir reply, sh a r in g 55 before the latter was caught by Westwood off Foster on


ton a return catch on 39 with Edenfield on 74, and Ilawke and Wright put up dogged resistance for the third wicket. T h e y p u t on 49 b e fo re


Gorton had Ilawke caught by O’Neill. A f t e r th a t , with some


t ig h t b ow l in g and f iv e more wickets, Whaliey lim­ ited the home side to 173- 8. Wrigh t stuck around to make 53 before being sev­ enth man ou t to Fallon, se e in g p a r tn e rs Sw ift , Storey and Smithson all fall cheaply. O’N e il l to ok the eighth


wicket — his third — but W h a l ie y c ou ld n ’ t qu ite snatch the bonus points. O’Neill ended with 3-38 off 14 overs, with Fallon and Gorton both chipping in with two wickets apiece.


But i t was a different story on Sunday as Padi-


Good light stops play!


AN unusual entry in the Ribblesdale Wanderers scorebook claims that GOOD light stopped


play. On Saturday 10 minutes were lo s t


in the


Oswaldtwistle Immanuel innings because o f ... bright sunshine! In the end the glare of sun­


light shining through the sight-screens reduced the matches to a 41-oversper- side contest. And it was one that Ribbles­


dale won convincingly. Professional Gurinder Pal


Singh was in devastating form with the ball. Having removed opener


Snape and third man GHarinder cheaply, he


struck with a vengeance later on to remove three more Immanuel batsmen and see the home side reduced to 112-9 at the end of their innings.


The professional was well-


supported by economical bowling from Ian Britcliffe — 1-33 from 10 overs — and David Howard with 2-26 from 13. It was a total that should


never have posed Wanderers too much of a problem. And so it proved as they won with almost eight overs to spare. Richard Palmer and Martin


Davies shared 36 for the first wicket to get the reply off to a solid start. John Rain then shared a fur­ ther 21 with Davies but the


two followed each other in quick succession. That left Singh (27) and


Martin Briggs (24) to take the locals to the brink of vic­


tory with a stand of 44. They to went in quick suc­


D


cession and were followed by Wilkson for a duck. But Paul Spencer and skip­


per Stephen Proctor hung around for long enough to see Wanderers home to a five- point win. The sun, however, did not


shine on Wanderers’ fortunes on Sunday when they lost by 52 runs to a resurgent Great


Harwood side. Wanderers struck regularly


early in Great Harwood’s innings through Britcliffe


(twice) and a run out. But Paul Allen refused to budge until Harwood had


reached 184-5 when he was finally caught for 95 off just 107 balls faced.


It proved to be a long, hard


afternoon for the Wanderers with none o f the bowlers having much to cheer about.


ESPITE suffering an extremely rare defeat on Saturday, Clitheroe seconds still hold an 11-point lead at the


top of the First Division. Mid-table Earby batted first at the Apple-


garth, and it was Wilson who did the damage for the home side, crashing 130 in their total


of 247-4. Bibby hit 64 in reply for Clitheroe, but the


locals fell 70 runs short on 177-9. Rivals Salesbury took advantage with a


nine-wicket win over Blackburn Northern, but they could not take the two bonus points. Simon Duckworth made 69 for Ribblesdale


Wanderers’ second string, helping the locals to a five-wicket win over Belvedere after the Burnley side had made 212-7. Read seconds, however, fell 110 runs short as they were well beaten by Great Harwood,


The locals put together a


spirited reply but to many of their batsmen got in ... and then got outl Martin Davies (29) and


David Howard (31) shared 58 for the first wicket and then Singh top-scored with 43 off 61 balls faced. Martin Briggs (13), Paul


Spencer (23) and G. Leach (10) all got into double fig­ ures. But in the end Wanderers


ran out o f overs and closed their innings on 177-7. With eight games to go. Wanderers will be hoping to


improve on their current tally of just five wins. And they will hope that Sat­

Bamoldswick in the Third Division, bowled out for 139 before the West Craven side came home with three wickets to spare. Clitheroe thirds won a low-scoring match at


Baxenden. bowling out the home side for 109 before recording a six-wicket win, and there was also a victory for Ribblesdale Wanderers thirds, who had an eight-wick et cruise against Great Harwood, with Cottam unbeaten on 71 as the locals overhauled Har­ wood’s all-out 157, after Devine had taken 5-


70.


18. Kershaw gave Simon Gor­


ham won with almo st 12 overs remaining.


Ba tt ing f irst , the Sta­


tion Road side struggled to an all-out 115. But it could have been dif­


ferent for the Ribbie Valley outfit after standing at 76-3.


Padiham professional Grant


struck early, seeing off skip­ per Nick Keighley with the score on eight.


John Kearsley and profes­


sional Mark Fallon added 25 before the latter was bowled by Stephen Gee, and Kears­ ley and Graham backed up that partnership, sharing 34 until Graham was trapped by Padiham skipper Pankaj Tripathi on 19.


Tripathi sent back Andy


Pratt with the score on 78, and then Gee took com­ mand. He bowled Grace without


scoring, and then removed Foster on seven, and Lee Burgess on two, the latter two both with the assistance of stumper Andy Robinson.


Gee then finally ended the


stubborn resistance of Kears­ ley on 68, and Whaliey had collapsed to 114-S. Dave O’Neill lasted two


balls before Gee claimed his sixth scalp, and Grant tied up the innings, bowling Westwood with Whaliey ending on 115. Gee’s superb haul o f six


wickets came at a cost of a miserly 29 runs conceded off 15 overs. In reply, Padiham lost Neil


Anderson to O’Neill without getting o f f the mark, and although they lost a further five wickets, Whalley’s total was never going to pose too much of a problem. Tripathi and Sharif shared


32 before both fell, and Gary Pethard and Woodvine were both dismissed as the locals stood at 52-5.


But Mehmood’s knock of 46


set Padiham up for maxi­ mum points, and Grant (7 not ou t ) and Gee (18 not out) knocked up the winning runs to see the defending champions home to a com­ prehensive win. Saturday secs Whaliey have


home advantage against the current league leaders,


Bamoldswick.
