Oxfordshire 3rd finished off their season in style with a 10-5 home win over Wiltshire 3rd in Division 5B of the Inter-county Championships.

With the match poised at 9-5, the home side needed a win in the remaining mixed doubles to gain full points.

This result gave them the full three points available and a second place in the division behind Surrey 4th.
