RISHTON are celebrating after reaching the semi-finals of the Worsley Cup for the first time since 1987.
The Blackburn Road side, who last lifted the cup in 1973, saw off Colne on Saturday in a tense game thanks to 101 from professional Kumar Dharmasena.
"I heard after the game that it was around 18 years since we reached the semi-finals and that was when Viv Richards was at the club so I am happy to get into the last four," said the Sri Lankan.
"Hopefully we can get into the final. We have a good amateur bowling team and some good batsmen so we hope we can do it."
The draw for the semi-finals will be made on Sunday with Todmorden and favourites Haslingden through. The latter knocked out defending champions Lowerhouse.
Nelson and Ramsbottom play their quarter-final on Saturday.
Meanwhile Great Harwood top the Veka Ribblesdale League table by seven points as they look for their first league title since 1900. They have a huge game on Saturday against second-placed Barnoldswick at Cliffe Park.
