Hamza Hussain plays an elegant drive during his century for Oxfordshire Under 13s
Hamza Hussain slammed his maiden county century as Oxfordshire Under 13s enjoyed a comprehensive victory over Berkshire at Stonesfield.
Hussain's superb innings came off just 79 balls - his second 50 taking only 25 deliveries.
Batting first, Oxon found themselves in a spot of bother at 63-4, with Curtley Slatter (34) the only top-order batsman to really get going.
But Hussain turned the game in Oxfordshire's favour, as they posted an impressive 235 all out.
They were aided by the big-hitting Josh Megson, who slammed 25 in ten deliveries.
Berkshire got off to a solid start in their reply, although they were helped by Oxfordshire dropping three catches.

At 90-1, Berkshire looked well-placed for the run-chase, before a miserly spell from off-spinner Josh Garrett, who took 2-15 off eight overs, turned the game in Oxon's favour.
Only Steve Carson (65) made any real impression for the away side as they finished on 177 all out.
