MAIDENHEAD & Bray were stunned by local rivals North Maidenhead to throw the relegation battle wide open again.

As it stands in the cricketing pyramid it looks like three teams will go down from the division but second bottom North Maidenhead beat the Bray outfit by five wickets.

Tring Park's second XI are doomed at the foot of the table but North Maidenhead and Fleet - who occupy the other places in the probable drop zone have closed in on Chesham and James Coyne's Bray side with just two game to go.

The home side inserted Bray and skittled them for 162 before knocking off the runs with plenty of overs to spare with Majid Khan hitting 72 not out as they reached 165-5.

Maidenhead & Bray hosts leaders Thatcham Town tomorrow (Saturday) and then travel to rock bottom Tring Park Twos in the final game of the season.
