Longparish cricketers will need to bring their sub-aqua kit along to their picturesque village ground alongside the River Test if Saturday's scheduled friendly match against Oakley is to go ahead.

![]() Scott McGaughrin took three wickets in four balls to turn Odiham & Greywell's ECB National Club Championship preliminary round tie against Berkhamsted on its head. With their reply at 130-4, the Hertfordshire League hosts looked odds on to overhaul Odiham's 158-9. But McGaughrin, pictured, ripped out Berkhamsted's middle-order with a spell of 4-26 which culminated in the last six wickets falling for 25 runs. Berkhamsted collapsed to 155 all out (Ryan Friend 41) and a surprise three-run defeat. Earlier, Ed Ikin (28) eased Odiham to 64-1 before three quick wickets fell, leaving Liam Doran (22), Will Kettle (20) and Jack Malden pick up the pieces and steer the visitors to a competitive score. Odiham's reward is an away tie against powerful ECB Middlesex County League side Richmond at Old Deer Park on Sunday, 1pm - a busy day for the club, with a National Village Cup tie at Hursley Park also on the agenda. |
