A SUPERB all-round display by Chad Keegan ensured that Banbury finished the season on a high note with victory over Oxford in the OCB’s Bernard Tollett Cup final at Abingdon Vale.

The 36-year-old former Middlesex player returned amazing figures of 6-22 in just four overs as Oxford were bowled for 120 in the last of their 20 overs on Sunday.

After opener Hugo Darby hit 47, man-of the match Keegan then capped Banbury’s run chase, as well as his own fine performance.

He completed their seven-wicket victory with successive sixes, finishing on 39 not out.

So Banbury, who had to settle for runners-up spot behind champions High Wycombe in the Serious Cricket Home Counties Premier League Division 1, finished a successful season with some silverware.

Scores: Oxford 120 (C Keegan 6-22), Banbury 122-3 (H Darby 47, C Keegan 39no).

FIVE Banbury players also featured for Oxfordshire in the Unicorns Counties Championship final at Carlisle.

However, Darby, Lloyd Sabin, Keegan, captain Luke Ryan and Karl Penhale could not prevent Oxon going down to a convincing ten-wicket defeat to Cumberland inside two days.
