Oxford Times Cherwell League leaders Aston Rowant will be looking to make it six wins out of six at home to Challow & Childrey in Saturday's Division 1 clash.

Pete Swainson is back for Rowant, but skipper Chris Hutton has yet to decide which seamer to unleash on the Challow batsmen - Simon Lambourne, who is struggling with shin splints, or the gangling Ryan Dutton.

Challow expect to field an unchanged side.

Skipper Guy Ferguson will be burning the midnight oil trying to decide on replacements for the five Kimble players who are unavailable for the trip to Standlake.

Hosts Oxford Downs welcome back Tim Sutton from university.

Dinton will travel to Sandford St Martin without skipper Phil Scott, but Adrian Manger returns and will lead the side in Scott's absence.

Former Middlesex man Chas Taylor and Neil Cox will be missing for Sandford and are replaced by Mark Robey and Richard Murrey.

A groin injury is likely to sideline Shipton-under-Wychwood's Ian Lewis for some weeks, while Chris Panter is unavailable for the visit of Bourton Vale.

Batsman Craig Lambert and veteran seamer Paul Snell come in for Shipton.

Vale will be without Rob Pike and Max Brown, so give chances to promising young batsman Alex Fateh and, making his first-team debut, left-arm quickie Jason Edgeworth.

Banbury Twenty expect to field an unchanged team for the visit of Buckingham, who include Anthony Romaine and Rob Large.
