Oxford blow away Tabs at Lord’s

Oxford maintained their proud record in Varsity cricket with a comprehensive six wicket victory over Cambridge in the one-day fixture after the four-day match was hit by rain.
It was the Blues’ second consecutive limited-overs victory over the Tabs, and they haven’t been defeated in the longer form of the game since 1998.
Macadam, Dingle, Woods and Hobiss all picked up a brace of wickets to dismiss Cambridge for a total of 135, a score that was never going to be terribly competitive.
Oxford still had a lot of work to do in tricky conditions, but unbeaten 40s from Alex Ball and Spencer Crawley ensured the victory.
