Leighton Buzzard eased their relegation fears with a nail-biting one-wicket win over Chalgrove with just four balls to spare.

Chasing Chalgrove's 205-9, Buzzard reached 200-5 with overs in hand.

But then they lost four wickets in nine balls and it was left to the last pair to see them home, Lee Selfe top-scoring with 49.

Earlier, Steve Strong hit 65 for Chalgrove as Selfe (6-56) and 14-year-old Dan Scott (3-44) did the damage.
