Astley Bridge v Westhoughton 11th June 2005

Westhoughton were frustrated at Astley Bridge, having to settle for a draw. The Howfeners impressed with the bat, but again had no luck in the field.

Westhoughton made 236-8 with captain Steve Parker scoring 41 and Paul Atherton top scoring with a fine 79, but despite 3-20 from Ali Hassan, the visitors failed to bowl out Bridge mainly due to the Northrop brothers, Andy (58) and Rick (30) who helped the home side reach 204-8.
