Oxfordshire lost a thrill-ing clash with Dorset by one wicket.

On a damp wicket, Oxon were put in and did well to post 131-6 from 45 overs.

A partnership of 68 between Sam White (41) and Graham Beer saw Oxon recover from 38-4, and good running between the wickets saw Oxon to a competitive total.

Dorset initially made batting look easy, and it was only after a rain break that the wicket changed again.

Although spinners Harvey Eltham (3-17) and Daniel Patey (3-19) turned the screw as Dorset slumped to 77-7 and 124-9, they just got over the line.

Oxon’s match against Wiltshire was washed out.
