A depleted Leigh crashed to another defeat at table topping Woodford Wells at the weekend.

Batting first Leigh - who have endured a miserable run of reverses - were skittled out for just 151 - with Dean Clarke top scoring on 58.

Dean Waller also chipped in with a stylish 46 but the total was never likely to be enough to trouble their promotion-chasing opponents.

And that's exactly how it proved with Woodford reaching the required score for the loss of just five wickets.

Leigh's Stuart Elliott was again the pick of the bowlers however - taking three wickets for 28 runs.
