Interesting start . What numbers do the pros bat ?

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 4:22 pm

Lowerhouse pro batting now.

Is that the South African guy

Good start for Ley.

Lowerhouse 2 down. 15 on the board. Game on.

Pro still in ?

No, Lowerhouse's original professional this season was Ockie Erasmus, but he got injured some weeks ago. Lowerhouse have used a number of sub-pro's over the last few weeks & today's is Mark Cosgrove, an Australian.
Francois Haasbroek, another South African, also plays for Lowerhouse. He was formerly their professional for 2/3 seasons a few years ago. He married a Burnley girl last year and now lives locally, so qualifies to play as an amateur.

Burnley have also played former professionals as amateurs over the past few years, the Browns, Tripathi, Johnny Clare are all ex 1st class County players who've appeared at Turf Moor on this basis, and even the " Burnley Lara " himself, Jimmy Anderson, played as recently as 2006, although I believe he was not permitted to bowl !!

Thanks for the explanation

I see he has 35 first class hundreds so he should have no problem seeing Lowerhouse home.

Cummon Redrose we need wickets !!!

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 4:55 pm

Recovery from Lowerhouse, 28 for 2. Cole Hayman bowling off a much reduced run up obviously carrying an injury.

OK thanks. Need Cosgrove out soon

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 4:57 pm

Very quiet around the West End ground at the moment.

12 overs gone.

What are the weather conditions like BRR? Anywhere near as hot as here?

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:17 pm

House 43 for 4

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:18 pm

BIG wicket. Is the pro or the ex pro ?

MACCA · Post by **MACCA** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:19 pm

Poor batting is the order of the day...
Frankie gone, never looked comfortable

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:26 pm

Wow! Lowerhouse 47 for 5

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:28 pm

Wow indeed. Get the pro now ............please. Bet its as quiet as Ewood right now

Bout an hour and 26 if it carries on at this rate?
That’s not that long!

Should have been game over, pro Cosgrove just dropped.

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:46 pm

Lowerhouse 60 for 5 off 21 overs.

That could be a game changer. England dropped Kohli on 21

Right, half way through the overs, Lowerhouse 73 for 5. Anybody's game. Wouldn't like to call it from here.

This stand might be swinging it in Houses favour. Think if Burnley get the pro they should win but the drop was a real lifeline for LH.

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:13 pm

Lowerhouse 85 for5, need 85 off 21.

Well done Padiham CC just beat Settle.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:20 pm

If pro stays in House win.

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:27 pm

Lowerhouse slightl favourites 100 for 5 with 17 overs left. 70 required. Pro Cosgrove looking good.

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:35 pm

Cosgrove 50, backed up well by Charlie Cottam. House105 for 5.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:39 pm

Looks like the ringer is going to earn his match fee

Game over unfortunately. Drop a huge game changer.

Catches win matches....

Burnley got fortunate with the guessing umpire... it's evened out now

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:43 pm

Easy now for LH ( well Cosgrove anyway)

Pro gone! Lowerhouse 118 for 6. Lawson takes the wicket.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:51 pm

Sounds like he was going for the big hit. Irresponsible if he was. Could have easily got the runs without taking risks.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:54 pm

51 off 12 is still pretty straight forward with 4 wkts in hand . Burnley will have to bowl em out to win.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:56 pm

Blezard and Cottam in. Script written.

Clarets4me · Post by **Clarets4me** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 7:03 pm

41 needed off 10 Overs for the House, 4 wickets needed for Burnley !!

BigRedrose · Post by **BigRedrose** » Sun Aug 05, 2018 7:07 pm

Cottam gone. House 142 for 7. What a game!
