Oxfordshire will be looking to keep up the pressure on leaders Somerset when they host Merseyside in the sixth game of their Inter-Counties League Division 2 campaign this weekend.

Now in second place, but just three points off the lead, the selectors have left some spaces in the men's A team so that the best players from the B side will get a chance to compete on the Sunday in the A team.

The match will be played at Cowley Community Centre with Saturday's B games and Sunday's A games all due to start at noon.
