CHARLBURY moved off the bottom of Women’s League Division 2 with a tense win at home to Quatt (Shropshire).

Ellie Norton’s 2-11 off nine overs restricted Quatt to 167-8 from 45 overs.

Norton’s 42 took Charlbury to 88-2, but a flurry of wickets saw them fall to 121-7.

However, a 46-run stand from Georgia Brown and Vicky Strode proved enough.

Banbury lost by five wickets at home to leaders Horton House (Northamptonshire).
