T H E battle between the top two may have fallen in Clithcroe’s favour. ' But the Chatburn Road side have been floored by
•the news that professional Tom Hardman will be side lined for up to six weeks after losing his fight with injury. - The “ keen and enthusias
tic” paid man has made 355 runs in 15 appearances for the Ribble Valley outfit this campaign, as well as picking up 27 wickets along the way;
' his seasonal best coming against Earby in A p r il when he took 5-42. Captain Peter Dibb understands that consist-
. ency is paramount, and will look to bring in a new -
; pro for the remaining fix tures. However, his first capture was nothing less than inspired as Anwar A l i stepped in to smash eight, fours and bvo sixes in his knock o f 73, before adding

hvo wickets to his tally... Naeem Ashraf was also in
fine form as he struck 61 in his side’s 187-7 total. Joshua Marquet was outstanding with the ball and claimed figures of 4-18 from .9.2 overs to cap an impressive afternoon as Read fell 80 runs short o f their target. Dibb said; “We per
formed really well and it was a massive result for us. A t times we were looking a little bit shaky at the start when we were 19-3, but the pro and Naeem came in and batted brilliantly, and then the rest of the lads have contributed to help post a competitive score. “Our bowling and fielding
was fantastic, and Joshua was outstanding. . 1: don’t think that result decides anything. ju s t , yet ,, but it’s given us a bit of a lead at the :-

We want to try and get the same man in every week, because consist ency is important.' ■ ■ “ It’s a bit o f a pain but the
amateurs have done well ail year anyway. Tom has done . extremely well, but we have never relied on him, which is why-we are top o f ,the league.”

Whalley step back in time!
CRICKET
WHALLEY captain Richard Palm er was left bamboozled after his Station Road side stepped back in time. Tlie Ribble Valley outfit had hit
a rich vein of form in recent weeks but failed to rain on Padiham’s championship-chasing parade.
• Martin Davies opened with 54 for the visitors- at the Arbories before a strong 82-run stand for
. the fourth wicket between' Lee Kearsley (74 not out) and Declan
■ ■Fitzheniy (30) boosted Palmer’s side to 179. However, the four-way bowling strengths of professional Kashif Siddique (2-65), Qadder Ahmed and Saddique brothers Umar and Abdul, who each took one wicket apiece,, continued to chip away and sent Whalley pack ing for 204. Padiham eventually scooped a six-wicket win to jump to second in the table.'
. Palmer said; “It was a very dis appointing result. We’ve ’gone back to how we were at the start of the season where we played one half of our game well and the other half poorly. We batted well but bowled badly so consequently another defeat has been chalked
.: up when it shouldn’t have doiie.' “We dropped one vital catch
which would have possibly spun the game in our favour. If you drop
pla.vers like Umar Saddique then he will punish you and that’s exactly what he did. That was the turning point because he had 10
■ mns on the board at that point and he’s gone on to hit 76.” He added; , “I don’t think the

remaining batsmen would have been able to cope with our pro’s bowling. We worked hard to get to 204 without Kamran (Younas) get ting any which was a great effort
and we had to take every chance to defend it but we didn’t bowl well. “We’ve got nobody to blame but
ourselves.- We’re not really feeling any pressure at the minute because if you look upwards in the table we are not that far away from fifth and sixth. We are still not looking down
, but we may be forced to in the next couple of weeks i f things don’t go our way. If we lose the next two or three then the pressure will be on to stay out of the bottom three.” Elsewhere, Salesbury remain
; cemented to the bottom, 11 points adrift of Great' Harwood, after
their.ilth defeat of the season was inflicted upon them by Edenfield.
: ' A 101-mn partnership between professional Richard Rostron (30) and Peter Blackman (63) looked as
.though it could do some damage for Salesbuiy at Gincroft Lane but apart from Dan Chadwick’s 25-mn contribution, the remainder failed to assist as they ended the innings' on 160-8. ■

from 15 overs and Stephen Brown added 2:60 but the hosts still flew
