Young Charlie hits maiden league half-century

Luke Heritage and Charlie Turner
CHARLIE Turner hit a maiden Cherwell League half-century to steer Horspath 4th to a seven-wicket win at home to East Oxford 2nd in Cherwell League Division 7.

The youngster made an unbeaten 57 to take Horspath to victory at 150-3 accompanied by fellow teenager Luke Heritage (27no) in an unbroken fourth-wicket stand. The pair were completing impressive all-round performances as earlier East Oxford had been bowled out for 149 after being put in to bat.

Charlie took 3-10 and Luke 2-31, with Ed Oakley (2-22) and Trevor Spindler (2-47) also among the wickets, with Jahangir Qureshi (49) and Zulfiqar Hussain (30) providing the backbone of the East Oxford innings.
