Burnley looking for cup final berth
JEEVANTHA Kulatunga will look to fire Burnley into the Get Solutions Worsley Cup Final on Sunday.
The locals entertain Accrington, hoping to go one better than in 2006.
And they will look to their Sri Lankan professional to repeat some of the form he has shown in recent weeks.
Kulatunga was at the centre of controversy in the quarter-final against Lowerhouse, when he was given a life by the umpires following an appeal for a catch by Jonathan Finch.
That day saw him go on to record an unbeaten century, and he has since produced numerous performances with both bat and ball.
Qasim Ali's side endured differing fortunes in their double-header with the Thorneyholme Road side two weeks ago.
But they will hope for success on Sunday on their own patch, with the prospect of meeting either Ramsbottom or Todmorden in the final on Sunday, August 3rd.
However, before they can focus on that game, there is the small matter of Saturday's league clash at Bacup, while Lowerhouse will look to continue their recent good form at home to East Lancs.
All Lancashire League and Worsley Cup games start at 1-15 p.m.
In the Veka Ribblesdale League, Read travel to Earby and Padiham host Barnoldswick on Saturday, with wickets pitched at 1-30 p.m.
