JEHAN Mohammed hammered a splendid century in Horspath 3rd's 64-run defeat at home to Aston Rowant 3rd in a Cherwell League Division 4A run fest. 

Jehan Mohammed made 113

Faced with the visitors' massive 324-4 dec - which included an unbeaten 200 from skipper Jamie Revill - after putting the opposition in to bat, Horspath staged a spirited run chase. 

Opener Tejas Anand made 31, before Mohammed shared a second-wicket stand of 74 with Chris Batten (27). 

He notched his fourth league century, before his impressive innings finally came to an end when he was stumped by Revill off Tim Foster for 113 off 93 balls, which featured 15 fours and two sixes. Horspath were eventually 260 all out with Foster taking 6-39. 

Earlier, Revill racked up a spectacular double century off just 124 balls with an incredible 17 fours and 16 sixes as he made the most of a number of dropped chances. 

He shared a third-wicket stand of 161 with Rafe Mason (54), before putting on 89 for the fourth wicket with Dave Ridgley (23). Saif Dogar took 2-57 for Horspath.
