Oxford Downs maintained their lead at the top with a three-wicket win over reigning champions Banbury Twenty in a low-scoring encounter.

With the exception of an unbeaten 35 from Mickey Thomas, Twenty's batting succumbed to the bowling of Callum Taylor (3-19) and Matt Lee (4-32) and they were dismissed for a paltry 92.

Downs, however, were made to struggle against the bowling of Mike Wedderburn (3-34) and Thomas (3-36) before edging home at 96-7.
