Alex Reidy looked to have set up a victory for Twford but was out for 82 at 198-6 when the visitors required only 13 more runs to win.
Schoolboy debutant Jacob Jablonski, with 35 not out, also looked a potential match winner for Twyford, but was marooned at the non-striker’s end when Hands clean bowled last man Tom Ducker.
Michael Heffernan, pictured above, hit a half-century as Alton II eased to a six-wicket win over Sparsholt, while Will (66 not out) and Tom (49) Flynn did their gallant best for Hursley Park, who lost by 78 runs at Longparish, where newcomer Adriaan Maxwell top scored with 70.
