Leah Joy Poulton (born 27 February 1984 ) is an Australian former cricketer who played for New South Wales and Australia.
She played as a specialist batter who usually opened the batting.
Poulton came to prominence in youth cricket by captaining New South Wales to the Under-17 national championships in 2000.
In March 2000, soon after turning 16, she played for New South Wales in the national Under-17 championships.
She scored 141 runs at a batting average of 23.50 and took two wickets at a bowling average of 15.50 as New South Wales defeated Victoria Blue to win the competition.
In 2002–03, she made her senior debut for New South Wales in the Women's National Cricket League (WNCL).
She found runs hard to come by in her first three seasons and was in and out of the team frequently, aggregating only 24 runs in her second and third seasons combined.
In January 2002, she was selected for the state Under-19 team and scored 112 in the first match, against the Australian Capital Territory.
She also made two ducks and ended the tournament with 188 runs at 31.33; New South Wales won all of their six matches.
At the start of the 2002–03 season, Poulton made her senior debut for New South Wales in the Women's National Cricket League in a double-header against South Australia.
In her first match, she scored 12 in five-wicket victory.
Playing in ten matches, she made many starts, reaching double figures in all but one of her nine innings, but managed only a best score of 36 run out, against Western Australia.
She ended the WNCL season with 159 runs at 19.87 as New South Wales came second, ending a run of six consecutive titles.
Victoria qualified first and thus hosted the finals, defeating New South Wales 2–0 in a best-of-three series.
Poulton made only 1 and 11 in the deciding matches, which were lost by 3 wickets and 40 runs respectively.

Poulton ended the competition with 191 runs at 63.66.
She was rewarded with selection in and captaincy of the national Under-19 team during the season and played in two matches against England Under-19s, scoring 13 and 35 as Australia won both matches.

Poulton was rewarded with international selection in the Rose Bowl series against New Zealand at the start of the 2006–07 season and scored her maiden century, 101, in the third match.

During the 2008 Australian winter, she travelled to play for Nottinghamshire in England, and earned herself a recall to the Australian team at the start of the 2008–09 southern hemisphere season.
After scoring 376 runs at a batting average of 41.77 in the 2008–09 WNCL, Poulton retained her position in the national team for the 2009 Women's Cricket World Cup and the 2009 World Twenty20.
