Luke back as How sits it out

CRICKET: LANCASHIRE have given Royton permission to play Luke Procter as professional in tomorrow’s Lake Garage CLL home game against Middleton.

Royton originally secured the services of Jamie How as they believed Procter was needed by the county side.

How scored a match-winning 120 in the recent Wood Cup semi-final victory over Walsden.

Procter is unavailable for Sunday’s trip to Crompton as he will be involved in Lancashire’s one-day match against Essex. He will be replaced by South African Glen Addicot.
