ELPM maintained their position at top of the North Manchester League Division One with a comprehensive win over Tottington St Johns.

Joe Shiels (32) laid the foundation and ELPM reached 107-5 when a century stand from captain Ian Wade (78) and Steve Keyworth (56 not out) took the score past 200.

And when Wade was caught Carl Greaves continued the push with 18 not out for a score of 243-6.

In reply, TSJ lost wickets on a regular basis with only R Brooks (52), making any impression. Paul Hewart 3-39 made inroads in top order and Matty Partington 4-45 dealt with the middle and lower order as TSJ were dismissed for 151.
