The Furness Building Society Northern Premier Cricket League (incorporating Readers Cricket Balls) reaches the halfway stage on Saturday with St Annes holding a 15-point lead over defending Champions Leyland.

St Annes have played 12 matches and have 128 points with Leyland second (12-113). Chorley (11-107) and Morecambe (11-100) are also in close contention at the top.

While St Annes are at home to Preston on Saturday there's no doubt about the game of the day. That's at Fox Lane where Leyland entertain Chorley. Andy Holdsworth's side have already surpassed last season's points tally of 103.
