DOUBLE success came to Ribchester


sides progressed to th e third round of the Lawren- son Cup.


The first team won by 34


runs a t Stacksteads, after posting 185-8 from their first innings. And they made sure of


th e i r place in th e n ext round, after dismissing the hosts for 151 in reply. The second string how­


ever enjoyed a much more crushing victory, a f te r thrashing Padiham by 128 runs. A massive f i rs t inning


score of 237-5 from th e locals proved to much for the men from the Arbories, as th ey were ev en tu ally bowled out for just 108. Ribblesdale Wanderers


also booked a third round b e r th , a f te r dismissing Barnoldswick for 81 in reply to their 201-9. But i t was disappoint­


ment for Whalley, as they were sent packing for 99, chasing 184-9 from visitors Baxenden. The game of the day on


Saturday, saw Salesbury return to the top of the First Division, after claiming the full seven points against previous leaders Baxenden. A f irs t innings to ta l of


220-7 proved to big a task for the Back Lane outfit, as th ey d e p a r ted 61 ru n s short on 159. Both Clitheroe and Rib­


blesdale Wanderers also collected maximum points, as they disposed of West Craven p a ir E a rb y and Bamoldswick respectively.. The former lost just one


wicket in chas ing 100, while Barnoldswick were all out for 133 chasing the days highest total - 305-3. In the Second Division,


Whalley picked up th e points for only the second tim e th is season w ith a f ive-wicket win a t Oswaldtwistle Immanuel. Af te r dismissing th e


home side for 140, the Sta­ tion Road o u tf it claimed the runs required with half of th e i r innings s t i ll remaining. Read maintained their


Road, as both Salesbury


outfit on 2-2. T h at brought paid man Mark


Gillespie to the crease alongside the skipper, with the pair taking


the score to 45 before the latter fell to Brett Storey for 17. Bishop, coming in a t number


seven, would play out the innings until the close and almost brought


up th e 50 p a r tn e r sh ip with Matthew Coulter before the latter fell for 21.


However, Bishop soon achieved


his own 50, ending unbeaten on 55 to leave Clitheroe on 167-8. M a rk Hargreave s was to


become the hero of the Edenfield reply, as he claimed a five-wicket h aul, including openers Greg Smithson (13) and Oliver Senneck (IV).


Aside from p a id man Ian


Mitchell (48), the middle order failed to pose a threat to the visit­ ing attack, as the remainder of the


side fell for single figure scores. Mitchell proved to be last man


out, as he single-handedly kept the Edenfield challenge alive( b u t Clitheroe claimed an o th e r two bonus p o in ts to become th e league’s joint leaders. However, Sunday saw them suf­


fer defeat in the second round of the cup despite an eight-wicket haul from Gillespie. Padiham were bowled ou t for


108, but Clitheroe were then shot out for just 95 in reply. Padiham elected to b a t a f te r


winning the toss, b u t took over three overs before either opener registered a rim. Both Umar Saddique (5) and


Waqar Ali (9) fell in consecutive Gillespie overs and the pro went on to finish with amazing figures of 8- 15.


M a rk Ha rg reav e s claimed David Hall in his first over for six,


while skipper Anthony Hall joined the pro in registering a duck. With Padiham reeling on 29-6,


i t seemed only a m a t te r of time before the innings collapsed. But an unbeaten 26 from Kevin


Hitchon added some respectabili­ ty, and further scores from Gary Pethard (21) and Saeed Riaz (19) took the score passed three figures. Clitheroe looked odds-on cer­


tainties to rattle the runs off in no- nonsense fashion. But the visitors, and profession­


al Pankaj Tripathi in particular were to have their say, as opener Andy Burns fell to Stephen Gee for a duck. Wickets fell a t regular intervals


as Padiham took the win against all the odds. Gillespie top-scored with 18, as


Tripathi (4-24), Hitchon (3-19) and David Hall (2-20) all played a significant part.


Double disappointment as Whalley suffer more misery


WHALLEY’S miserable season con­ tinued, as they crashed to the bottom of the Jennings Ribblesdale League with a reverse a t home to Great Har­ wood. And 24 hours later, they saw their


Ramsbottom Cup hopes dashed a t Cherry Tree. Oswaldtwistle Immanuel’s las t


gasp victory a t Bamoldswick, meant Mark Whelan’s side slipped to the foot of the table - level on points with the New Lane outfit and Padiham. And while that taking place, Whal­


ley went down to a 114-run defeat at home to title-chas ing Great H a r ­ wood.


After losing the toss, Whalley were


made to field first, and were put to the sword early on, with the visitors reaching 112-0 after just 24 overs. I. Howarth then fell to a superb


running catch a t long off by Martin Davies for 53, before fellow opener and paid man Andrew Crook joined him th e p avilion for 55 - clean- bowled by Simon Gorton. Russell Whalley (4) departed simi­


larly, while Houldsworth and Deafey both left having notched 20 apiece. After looking likely to score well


B CLITHEROE CC’s


Under 11 A team continued their winning ways away at Edenfield. Winning the toss the visi­


tors elected to bat and Bow- ness made light of the Eden­ field attack, scoring a fine 20, shortly followed by a bril­ liant 14 from Nuttall on his debut. The rest of the Clitheroe


batsmen ably supported and the final total was 267. Edenfield were soon under


pressure with Bowness tak­ ing a wicket in the first over. And with wickets for


Plant and McKenna, then another dead eye run out by the latter, the local side ran out easy winners by 48 runs. The team then progressed


to the semi-final of the cup, despite a less than convinc­ ing b a ttlin g performance against Great Harwood. Batting first the Clitheroe


position a t the top of the table in the best way possi­ ble - with victory over local rivals Salesbury. However, th ey were


denied the full points by failing to bowl out the visi­ tors, af ter they managed ju s t 202-8 in rep ly to Read’s 240-5. A run-rate defeat befell

side could only muster a total of 223, the top-scorer by a long way being the extras column. In the latter stages the vis­


itors bowled well, and only Bowness, N u t ta l l and Dewhurst managed to add to the actual total. Great Harwood in their


innings got off to a slow but steady start, until McKenna came into the a tta ck and claimed two vital wickets. Brilliant bowling by Dent, under pressure, brought two


more wickets and a further wicket by Bowness left the visitors needing seven from the last over.


Dewhurst produced a


tight final over, leaving the away side still seven short of the Clitheroe total by the end of the match. The Under 13s gained


their third league victory of the season with a compre­ hensive 59 run victory over local rivals Whalley A. Batting first, the Chat-


burn Road team made a steady start, with Richard Blackburn picking up the pace with a solid unbeaten 14 in th e middle of the innings. The final pair of Anthony


Collinge and James Sharpies cu t loose in the la s t four overs, scoring 20 and 19 respectively with a succes­ sion of boundaries. Clitheroe’s n e tt score of


70, after deducting for wick­ ets lost, was always going to be a tall order for the visitors, and needing to score quickly, they lost early wickets against some accurate bowl­ ing.


A superb hat-trick from


Ian Scott was followed by two wickets in two balls by Mark Higson, and the loss of ten wickets, left Whalley with a net score of 11. All the Clitheroe bowlers


deserve credit for their efforts, producing a vast improvement in form to their previous match. B CHATBURN seconds suffered two narrow defeats


over the weekend. On Saturday, Cononley


batted first and, assisted by a lacklustre fielding perfor­ mance, scored 155. Rod Booth (4-35), Geoff Lam­ bert (2-22) and Amar Zulfi (2-24) were the major wicket takers. In reply Chatburn were


given an excellent start with Booth (43) and Geoff West (21), before Amar Zulfi scored 20 and the batting order collapsed. Despite a late recovery


from Lambert (15), John Reynolds (13) and Russell Braithwaite (17), Chatbum were bowled out for 149, los­ ing by just six runs. On Sunday Chatburn


entertained Third Division T h ornton in the second round of the Cowling Cup. Chatburn b a tted first,


with all the early b a tte rs contributing, Ted Topham (37) and Chris Waddington (26) scored the bulk of the runs. An aggressive 55 not out


gave from Lambert, scored off 28 balls gave the score respectability as Chatbum finished on 214-7. In reply Thornton started


patiently against accurate bowling, particularly from Booth and Braithwaite, but lost two early wickets to give Chatbum hope. However th is was an excellent batting wicket and


over 200, the home side somehow managed to stem the flow of runs to finish on 188-9, as Gorton ended with figures of 5-67. The hosts were looking for a solid


opening, b ut after Andy P ra t t had been caught in the gully first ball by


Deafey, the outlook looked bleak. Lee Kearsley (13) and Davies (15)


werp both caught behind, while tail- ender Dave Westwood (12) ended the day as the only other batsmen in double figures. That collapse saw them bowled out


for 74, and slip to the foot of the table for the first time this season. Whalley would then tu rn their


attentions to the Ramsbottom, in a bid to add one bright spot to a some­ what fledgling league season. But high-flyers Cherry Tree were


to prove too much on th e i r own patch, as the home side eventually booked a semi-final b e r th by five wickets. Winning the toss and batting first,


Whalley’s innings again started in the worst possible fashion, after Kearsley hit Robbins straight up in the air, and was caught behind for a duck. Davies (3) followed soon after, but


an eventual half-century from profes­ sional Neil Cordingley added some spice to the innings. He b a t te d v a l ia n t ly alongside


Andy P r a t t before th e la t te r was clean-bowled by Mohammed for 33, while Fielden and Westwood kept the ta i l s ta b le w ith a n in th wicket unbeaten partnership of 35. That left Mark Whelan’s men on


175-8, but Cherry Tree were well on their way to overhauling that with an opening stand of 81. Whalley then got back into pro­


ceedings, taking four quick wickets to leave the hosts on 130-4 with 10 overs remaining.


With the match very much in the


balance, i t was home paid man Naeem Ashraf who hit the decisive runs, ending a t the crease on 56 after arriving as third man. And d e sp ite th e ef fo r ts of the


Whalley a tta ck to bowl tight lines, Ashraf smashed four fours off a Jason Smith over, to propel the hosts into the semi-final. Whalley are now lef t to rectii

eventually the Thornton batters took control of the situation as the Chatburn fielders wilted in the heat, reaching 215-3 with five overs remaining. The wicket takers came in


the form of Lambert (1-36) and Braithwaite (1-75). Chatbum should not feel


too disappointed with this defeat as they contributed to an excellent game of cricket, and made their illustrious opponents fight all the way. B RIMINGTON kept a grip on the lead a t the top of the mid-week Clitheroe and D is tr ic t Cricket League when they defeated River­ side by nine wickets in a much tighter game than the scoreline suggests. Chipping A are keeping


the pressure on the leaders a f te r a big win against Ribchester. A Vin Wilkinson 50 and 3-10 by Chris Jacques did the damage. An Andy Gardner half-


century was not enough to stave off defeat for Chipping Ramblers against Calder- stones for whom Keith Gill also notched 50. In the other games Catholic SC inflicted a 63 run defeat on Low Moor.
