Horndon-on-the-Hill lost by seven wickets to second-placed Oakfield Parkonians.
It was another case of the side winning the toss failing to make the most of a favourable wicket, as Horndon were all out for 204 with nine overs to spare.
Jeff West hit 64 and Jack Marson 37 not out but there was not enough support to reach a sustainable total.
Oakfield lost just three wickets in their chase, with Faisal Bhatti’s 80 and Ramya Upadhyay’s 59 not out seeing them over the line.
