Division One leaders Oakworth had a rare lacklustre day in the Craven League as they returned from Thornton nursing a mammoth 151-run defeat.

Thornton walloped 263 for five, Anthony Giles scoring 79 and Ajmal Choudrhy 69. A Anwar then picked up five for 31 as Oakworth slumped to 112 all out and were replaced at the top by their conquerors.

Surprise packet Crossflatts are now second after they got the better of Bingley Congs by 56 runs in a 25-overs-per-side game at Beckfoot.

The visitors were put in and made a creditable 117 for six, Mohammed Adil hitting 55 not out as Neil Copping claimed four for 58.

Copping then made 21 in the reply but Qamar Ayub (5-24) and Mick Addy (4-5) had Congs all out for 61.

Fourth-placed Bradley made the short journey north to Embsay and the hosts struggled to just 103 against Tim Rudden (4-24) and John Duffy (4-33).

But Bradley were never in the hunt and were hustled out for just 65 in reply, John Metcalfe taking six for 12.

There was a tense finish at Cowling as visitors Glusburn just got home by one wicket off the last possible ball.

The home side batted first and made 161, thanks mainly to S Hassan (50) and Steve Richardson (46), as Sean Williamson (4-32) and Mark Pickles (3-28) led the bowling.

Mark Price (43) and Williamson (37) then guided Glusburn towards their target, despite the efforts of Richard-son (4-31) and Martyn Dalby (3-58).

There was no play at Cullingworth or Haworth due to the weekend rain.

Barrowford are now clear leaders at the top of DIVISION TWO as they endeavour to bounce straight back up to the top flight.

They restricted hosts Haworth Road to 121 for eight and 53 not out by Neil Hargreaves then guided the Bull Holme side to a seven-wicket success.

Ingrow St John's were indebted to Colin Bottomley, who carried his bat for 75 as the Saints made 111 for six in a 35-overs-per-side game.

Local rivals Ingrow then fell 27 runs short as M Qadeer, Anthony Haigh and A Razza claimed three wickets apiece.

Foulridge's trip to Chatburn proved fruitful as they won by 18 runs, despite scoring only 145 as Russell Braithwaite, Rod Booth and Anthony Booth took three wickets each.

Richard Shovelton made 47 in reply but the hosts were all out for 127.
