Leverington Cricket Club are back in relegation trouble after a poor batting performance against Swanton Morley in the West Norfolk Division One.
Both teams were much changed from the previous week where Leverington had won.
Leverington lost the toss on a wet wicket and were soon in trouble with three quick wickets going.
Damien Allen (12 ) debut-making Rob Lynn (38) were the only Leverington players to get into double figures putting on 40 for the fourth wicket as they were bowled out for 80.
Swanton Morley had the best of the batting conditions and easily knocked off the runs with Allen picking up the only wicket.
