Leicestershire have confirmed that all-rounder Wayne White has left the club by mutual consent.

White began his career with his home county Derbyshire, before joining Leicestershire in 2009.

He was a regular wicket-taker and handy lower middle-order batsmen, scoring 2,139 runs and taking 108 wickets in 51 matches.

He earned a move to Lancashire for two seasons, but was not a regular starter and after a season back at Derbyshire in 2015 he returned to Grace Road.

His last game for the Foxes was in May.

"We would like to thank him for his whole-hearted and significant contribution to the club on and off the field.
