Big-hitting Radley batsman Ian Clewley made the Chipping Norton bowlers toil in the afternoon sun as he hit 156 in their Division 4 game, writes ROGER WISE.

Clewley hammered ten sixes and 13 fours as Radley rattled up 284-3. Richard Wittan proved a useful partner with 83 in a stand of 203.

Chippy found the going tougher when they batted and were dismissed for 142.

Steve Howard was the star with 78 and 5-11 as Cowley beat Harwell by 107 runs in Division 1. Another player in form was Combe's Dave Gardiner, who slammed 59 off 30 balls and then collected four Marsh Gibbon wickets to see his side home by 25 runs in Division 3.

Brill progressed to the second round of the Airey Cup as they overcame Broughton by two wickets, when chasing 192 for victory.

Oxford Rescue's Cox took 6-9 to steer his team past Hendred.

Minster Lovell 2nd's Adam Sweetman, who is only 14, had a day to remember with a hat-trick but it was not enough to stop his team going down by six wickets against Twyford in Division 8. In the Senior Section, Kevin Hunt's 6-18 was too much for Chesterton as Milton notched up their first win of the season.
