Burnley v Lowerhouse

[FCBurnley]

Burnley won toss and batted. Steady start 39/0 off 10

[Quickenthetempo]

Hopey has put a stream on if you want to watch it.

The camera angle makes it look like nobody is there watching.

[FCBurnley]

Thanks. Yes watching live on Play Cricket . Com Not much noise from the House end yet The pitcher at the football ground end has an interesting action

Don't have to make it look like that....

[Somethingfishy]

98/2 at drinks

[helmclaret]

Is the live stream on you tube?

[FCBurnley]

Yes

[FCBurnley]

Erasmus painfully slow

[Quickenthetempo]

Don't have to make it look like that....

I was expecting a big away following with the run you have been on.

[FCBurnley]

Very defensive field considering House need to bowl Burnley out

[FCBurnley]

Fantastic by Bedford. Not one Lowerhouse player congratulated him. Pro out 155/3

[FCBurnley]

Bedford gone now. Think Burnley need 250 but don’t know what batters they have lef

[Elizabeth]

Fantastic by Bedford. Not one Lowerhouse player congratulated him. Pro out 155/3

Maybe if he hadn’t been leaping up in the air and punching his bat like he’d hit the winning run in a World Cup Final it might have given the Lowerhouse players the chance to acknowledge his hundred.

[Elizabeth]

Good fight back by the House

[Funkydrummer]

Cracking stream on PLAY-CRICKET.COM on YouTube.

[Funkydrummer]

197 for 6 off 45.2.

Another wicket fallen to Paddy.

[GetIntoEm]

Quite a decent crowd. 90% lowerhouse

[Funkydrummer]

221 for 7. Paddy again

Final over

[Elizabeth]

8 down now

[Burnley1989]

Decent total
Game on

[Funkydrummer]

223 for eight at end of innings.

[FCBurnley]

Burnley left at least 20 out there but no bowling points for House is a positive. Difficult to know if it is a good batting wicket or not. Bedford made it look easy but nobody else really got in.

[FCBurnley]

Darwen 96 all out. Rochdale 50/6 off 14

[Somethingfishy]

I thought it looked like a decent batting track but hard to tell. Bedford was positive in his innings and reaped the rewards. The rest a bit tentative... and Ocky was just as usual...obdurate. Still a useful knock though.
I've never liked House chasing. Always better batting first. They have to forget the target. Bat like they have been as though they are setting a total. Keep calm..no silly shots. Make Burnley earm the wickets not hand them to them. If they do that we will have a tight game.
I make Burnley favourites though..just.

[FCBurnley]

Wides leading the chase so far. Heap gone

[ClaretTony]

Darwen 96 all out. Rochdale 50/6 off 14

Rochdale now 66/9 so it’s going to be a twelve pointer for Darwen.

[FCBurnley]

66 all out

[Somethingfishy]

This is going how i feared. Tippy tappy.

[Aclaret]

A special mention to Kes at Rawtenstall.
Took 5 for 18 v East Lancs to go past 2000 wickets in the Lancashire League & Worsley Cup. Legend.

[Hopey]

70/5 Lowerhouse. Jonny still in. 4 LBWs thus far.

[Hopey]

Jonny gone. 70/6

[sjb]

Top bowling so far from Harry & Baz.

[Somethingfishy]

Not turned up at all and considering how we've been playing it's very frustrating. Not even made a game of it.

Depends how well the opponents let you play !

Agree. No one has played that rash a shot yet.

Jack and Charlie could gain a lot of experience here. Just bat the overs.

Spoke too soon. Two balls later. :

[Burnley1989]

Beaten on all fronts today, Barrett looks to have bowled really well.

[Quickenthetempo]

Top bowling so far from Harry & Baz.

Only been watching bits of the stream but Harry Snowden seemed to bowl a yard faster than everyone else.

[Hopey]

With a Burnley win, Darwen 18 clear. The league is there’s to lose.

Norden beaten by Clitheroe so House still 3rd.

[Hopey]

*8 clear

[Hopey]

Burnley win.

5 LBWS.

2nd most lbws in an innings for Lowerhouse.

[KevWebstersBomber]

House lose.

[FCBurnley]

*8 clear

Think Burnley play Darwen last game so just need to keep them within 10 points to have a chance
Excellent performance by Burnley today. Thought Bedford set the tone with the bay and the opening bowlers piled pressure on the visitors who truthfully had no answer
Pity it was so one sided Anyway safe journey home everybody. I expect most of the visiting fans are already there And finally thanks to Hopey if you were the one to set up the link. It was excellent

[Bordeauxclaret]

Any news on the attendance?

Only responsible for everything tech, website related and socials at Lowerhouse. Not responsible for their stream. It’s a good set up and looks like they have their Internet fixed.

Indeed. I've already said on here that i think Burnley have the best bowling attack. They grind you down. Bowl very straight and without giving you the overs to get the line either. They won the battle today. It really was all about who won that...and the toss. Batting second against a tight bowling attack and chasing a decent total was always an uphill battle.

[Dressinggown]

Their opener was top class. Timed everything from the start. Gave no chances away. Then that bloody Ocky joined in !

[Longsidelenny1882]

just seen the result what happened to the pros today for prohouse upthecolne

[FCBurnley]

TBH neither actual pro did much today
