OXFORDSHIRE face a crucial trip to Northumberland tomorrow.

Rupert Evans’ men are third in NCCA Trophy Group 1, a point behind their hosts.

It means victory at Jesmond CC would see them leapfrog Northumberland and go level with leaders Cumbria ahead of their final match. The top two progress to the quarter-finals.

Oxon won their Group 1 opener against Herefordshire, before drawing with Cumbria in a thrilling contest at Banbury CC last weekend.

They are aiming to hold all three NCCA Trophies at once, having claimed the NCCA Championship in 2021 and the T20 title last month.

OXON SQUAD

Jonny Cater (capt/wk), Harry Smith, Freddie Smith, Jamie Harrison, Tom Condon, Ollie Currill, Olly Clarke, George Tait, Robbie Shurmer, Prav Chahal, Joe Thomas, Max Mannering.
