Match Report It was back to winning ways for St Annes as they totally demolished a Leyland side that had several changes to the previous week. Only opener Bavla and lower order batsman Gardiner offered any real resistance. They shared a stand of 52 for the sixth wicket. Earlier professional Naseem Khan had been run out after only two balls and things went from bad to worse for them with the last five wickets managing only ten runs. Davies and Taylor were again among the wickets and professional Callaghan finished the job with two in two balls. An unbeaten partnership of 121 between openers Darlington and Evans in 88 minutes saw St Annes reach their target in 29 overs. Evans was particularly impressive hitting ten boundaries in his 101 ball innings. After a slow start Darlington came to life to hit seven fours in his 70 ball fifty. Twelve points will keep St Annes up with the leaders of the league and they will travel confidently to Kearsley for todays Lancashire Cup clash.
