CRICKET:
Bamford Fieldhouse remain on course to retain the LCB Cup.
Paddy McKeown’s side booked their semi-final spot after a seven-wicket victory at Prestwich, leaders of the Lancashire County League.
Taking first guard, the hosts were restricted to 183 for nine.
In reply Josh Tolley and McKeown hit 69 and 53 respectively. Nick Brierley (28) and Wright (17) were the not out batsmen as victory was taken with 7.5 overs to spare.
Awaiting Bamford in the last four is a trip to Northern League high-flyers Barrow, on a date to be arranged.
