similar fashion to Read’s innings, as Rushton sent back paid , man Paul Turner and captain Peter Dibb without scoring, before.former skipper Neil BoltOn became wicket keeper O’Connor’s third catch, with the score on 13.-


• Unlike their hosts, Clitheroe were unable to stabilise the innings, and wickets continued to fall at regular intervals. Rushton went on to


take a further five wick­ ets, with Eastham get­ ting in on the act ivith 2- 15, as O’Connor also took a collection for five v ic t i^ as Clitheroe were all piit for just 80. On Sunday, Read


backed up that perform­ ance against Burnley rivals Padiham. They again batted


first, although the innings followed a differ­ ent pattern, getting off to a better start before a middle order collapse. Opener Matt. Wilson


top-scored with 34, but Michael- Whalley, Har­ vey - run out first ball - and O’Connor could only add one run between them. Holt (22), Marshall


(13) and Eastham (27) all provided valuable resistance as Read were all out for 133, with Naveed Ashraf taking 5- 51 and professional Kashif Siddique 4-43. The game was in the balance at tea, but East­


ham soon put Read in the driving seat. Batting at six, Ashraf


made 57, but Padiham were dismissed for 97 inside 38 overs, with Har­ vey and O’Connor taking three catches each. Clitheroe, meanwhile,


went down to Blackburn Northern by five wickets on Sunday. Dibb’s side made 171-
