Kabir Toor booked Radlett’s place in round four of the ECB Club Championship with a match-winning innings against Osterley.
The 25-year-old hit an unbeaten 83 as Radlett chased down Osterley’s 175 at Cobden Hill.
It was Toor’s second highest score of the season and came in a 140-run partnership with captain Jono McLean that saw Radlett recover from 10-1, following Joe Cooke’s dismissal for two.
McLean was trapped LBW by Yaseen Khan (2-51) with the score on 150 and Alex Cook (4) fell eight runs later to the same bowler.
Johnny Armitage (14) joined Toor and they knocked off the required runs to seal a seven-wicket win.
The bowlers will take plenty of the plaudits after restricting Osterley to a low total.
Randeep Sanghera (2-26), Cooke (2-43) and Daniel Foster (2-29) took two wickets each but it was the economy of the bowlers that shone through, with five surrendering less than six runs an over.
