But, that score proved to be well beyond fifth-placed Collingham, who were bowled out on 113 in reply.

Bilton registered a much-needed win when they entertained Horsforth Hall Park, climbing out of the relegation zone in the process.

A run of five consecutive losses left David Cummings’ men second-from-bottom of the pile heading into Saturday’s fixture, however they managed to prevent their opponents from progressing any further than 180 all out.

Russell Robshaw bowled superbly, picking up 5-38, while skipper Cummings claimed 3-35.

It took Bilton until the very last of their allotted 50 overs to complete their run-chase, though they did eventually get the job done with two wickets to spare.

Opener Chris Peirson hit a useful 40 and Jamie Bryant added 33 before Tuseif Arshad (30 not out) saw the hosts over the line.

Beckwithshaw also recorded a long-overdue success and moved up one place to ninth spot courtesy of a 19-run triumph at home to Addingham.

Captain Ben Holderness made 44 and Ross Sedgley struck 33 in the Stags’ first-innings total of 159 all out.

Joe Holderness (4-33) and Ben Holderness (3-30) then combined nicely to send Addingham packing on 135.

Division Two promotion-hopefuls Follifoot stay second in the table after they beat Green Lane by six wickets.

Chasing 212/9, Yasar Ali (70 not out), Hector Bowerman (41) and Istikhar Hussain (39 not out) all contributed as the Bulls reached 177/4 in 33 overs to triumph via the Duckworth-Lewis Method.

Bardsey suffered a nine-wicket reverse at the hands of Olicanian having been dismissed for 146.

Skipper Andrew Bowes was their top-scorer with a knock of 36.
