Rover Cowley eased into The Oxford Times Cherwell League Division 1 second spot following an eight-wicket win in a run feast at Cumnor.
Having chosen to bat first, the home team rattled up 235-4 thanks to a spark-ling 103 not out from Ian Crosby, as Frans Gerber and Ben Cook, making their 1st XI debuts, looked on admiringly.
But Rover fought back through Chris Thomas (92 no), Stewart Laudat (55) and Reg Finch (47) to take the visitors to victory, and send Cumnor to the foot of the table.
*Cumnor 12, Rover Cowley 30
