Cricket: Westbury march towards title

Garsington set a useful target of 164-8, but a consistent batting display, led by Curley's 67 saw Westbury home despite the all-round efforts of Graham Wakefield for the losers.

Second-placed Hanborough were hit by the rain, although they seemed to be struggling against Brill at the time.

Brill made 186-4, thanks to Simmons's half-century and reduced their opponents to 57-4 when the weather intervened.

Steve Godfrey helped Brill to bowl out Oxford Rescue for 99Yesterday, Brill secured a six-wicket victory over lowly Oxford Rescue, who slumped to 99 all out against the bowling of Cavanagh (6-26), who was well supported by Steve Godfrey (3-38).
