Martin Peters answered a last minute plea to bale out depleted Ropley – and promptly hit a match winning century against Hampshire League County Division 1 rivals Fareham & Crofton at Vicarage Lane.
Peters, who confesses to be in ‘semi-retirement’ as a club cricketer, was all set to spend Saturday afternoon in his Winchester sports shop, but when the call came he locked up and rushed off to play.
“We were pretty short for one reason or another and I felt I couldn’t let the lads play with only ten,” he explained.
“But I honestly didn’t expect to play such a lead role in the game.”
Peters hit 14 fours in his 100 and shared a 151-run third-wicket partnership with South African Tim Niemand (87) as Ropley posted a formidable 265-9 (Ben White 5-47), a total beyond Fareham, who made 171 in reply.
“I left the crease kicking himself after sending an inviting full-toss into deep mid-wicket’s hands just after completing my century.  A career-best was there for the taking,” he moaned.
For Fareham, Andy King (36) and Pete Briggs (33) top scred, with teenager George Wickens taking 3-11 for Ropley.
Footnote: It was Sir Alf Ramsay, in the lead up to England's 1966 World Cup triumph, who described West Ham United's Martin Peters as "being ten years ahead of his time."

It was so near, yet so far for Hook & Newnham Basics as they lost by a solitary run chasing down a James Brooke inspired St Cross Symondians total of 264.
All appeared lost when Hook, bidding to keep in touch with unbeaten County Division 1 leaders Alton II, sank to 48-4.
But a battling middle-order fight-back – three batsmen hit half-centuries - and then another late rally took Basics to within touching distance of the target and left skipper Kevin Light rueing the opportunities that had got away.
Earlier, Brooke put the HNB bowling to the sword as only he knows how – with plenty of big, straight hitting in a no-nonsense 109.
Hook got him out at 196-7 but, having sent down 41 extras, found themselves frustrated as Henry Eades (34) engineered the tail to lift the tea-time total to 269.
Losing four of their top order before their reply had reached 50 was far from ideal for Hook, but half-centuries by Andy Darmody (51) and Ben Allnut (52) put them back in the picture.
With Kerr Franklin (35) alongside, last summer’s HCB Under-15 cup winning captain Liam Doran (who had earlier taken 3-46 with his off-spin) hit a maiden 53 not out, but ran out of partners as Steve Fryer (4-38) returned to take the last three wickets and leave Hook high and dry on 268 all out.
The result left Hook in joint fourth place behind Purbrook and Portsmouth & Southsea, who each won to keep the pressure on Alton II.
Purbrook lost to Alton recently, but experienced few difficulties in beating an under-strength New Milton II by 122 runs at Fernhill.
Opener Martin Lee (68) underpinned Purbrook’s 208-9, getting middle-order support from James Holder (35) and Hamid Khan (29), who later took 3-17 as NM fell to 86 all out (Raff Hussey 32).   Aaron Dean took 4-11.
P & S don’t play Alton until mid-August, but they will have taken delight in inflicting a third successive defeat on newly promoted United Services, who topped the log an the end of May.
Matt (88) and Tom Benfield (65) piloted P & S to a competitive 245-8 (Matt Easton 4-78), but when Mark Toogood (63) and Tom May (36) gave US a near 100-run start it was game on.
The tide turned when Jack Peach (4-25) rolled out four of the Services’ top five, including Aussie run gun Matt Rogers (22).   United Services closed 219-6.
P & S skipper Kieran Dunstan conceded: “We had to battle hard for this one. For the first 25 overs of both innings United Services were much the better team, but at the business end, however, we made it count.
OTs & Romsey II are joint fourth after a nine-wicket rout at Southern Gardens, where they mowed bottom side Totton & Eling II down for 102 – John Dowling and Tim Slade sharing eight of the wickets.
Slade (40), Shane Vidler (38) and Paul Longland, with 29 not out, completed the formalities in only 13 overs.
Martin Peters answered a late call to bale out depleted Ropley – and promptly hit a match winning century against Fareham & Crofton at Vicarage Lane.
Peters, who confesses to be in ‘semi-retirement’ as a club cricketer, Peters hit 14 fours in his 100 and shared a 151-run third-wicket partnership with South African Tim Niemand (87) as Ropley posted a formidable 265-9, a total beyond Fareham’s reach, who made 171 in reply.
“I left the crease kicking himself after sending an inviting full-toss into deep mid-wicket’s hands just after completing my century.  A career-best was there for the taking,” he moaned.
Lewis Taylor (5-24) and Iain Hardcastle, with 56, guided Burridge II to a maiden CD1 victory over Andover, who are finding life tough after two successive promotions.
Ellingham enjoyed a five- wicket win at Bishops Waltham, whose first five batsmen managed just 15 runs between them as they crashed to 22-5 against Ali Redfern (3-32) and Sean Ledbetter (2-25).
Gareth Lovett (37) and Ian Budd (17) stopped the rot with a stand of 50 and then Sam Medhurst (31) chipped in, but with wickets falling to Tom Faulkner (2-29) and Jim Edwards (2-17), they were all out for 141 in the 47th over.
After losing a couple of early wickets, Ellingham settled down with David Douse and Edwards both making 42 that ensured victory in the 46th over.
The most relieved side of the day were Ventnor seconds, who were spared the Hampshire League’s longest journey – an away day at Shrewton, high up on Salisbury Plain !
When they visited the Wiltshire village last summer, Ventnor’s team bus left before breakfast and didn’t return home again until after midnight ….

Hook & Newnham Basics’ challenge floundered once they allowed a promising situation against unbeaten County Division 1 leaders Alton to slip from their grasp.
They reduced the Brewers’ to 52-4, but were put firmly on the back foot once Richard Anthony (75) and Hugo Hammond (50) became established and yielded a 139-run stand which pointed Alton towards 227-6.
Hook got nowhere near it and were dismissed for 124 – Matt Buckingham (35) being rewarded with a Premier League call up today – with Lee Partner (3-11) and Tom Paul (3-51) sharing six of the wickets.
The result left Alton boasting the only unblemished CD1 record and a handy 13-point lead over Purbrook at the top.
Rolled by Alton a week earlier, Purbrook put 300-8 on their electronic scoreboard against St Cross Symondians III, with Josh Spiers (69) and Brad Mengham (53) making half-centuries.  St Cross replied with 200-7, Roly Fowler (48) top scoring.
Portsmouth & Southsea responded to the previous week’s defeat by Bishops Waltham by whipping Ropley by eight wickets.
South African Tim Niemand (57), fresh from his Ventnor century a week earlier, was the mainstay for Ropley, whose modest 175-9 proved easy pickings for Jack Davies (82 not out) and Matt Benfield, with an unbeaten 43.
Lee Beck produced a star all-round performance as fast rising New Milton II inflicted a second consecutive defeat on Shrewton, who are stumbling after a bright start.
Beck top scored with 47 and then, with the Green & Golds defending 130 at Fernhill, shared the bowling spoils with Matt Freeman as Shrewton plunged to 64 all out.   Freeman took 5-21 and Beck 5-43, while only Sam Gillot (20) got double figures..
Toby Corbin was arguably man-of-the-match as Ventnor II toasted a long overdue success – a four-wicket win over early pacemakers United Services at Steephill.
Corbin, who was in Premier Division action against Bashley (Rydal) today, bowled an immaculate 2-11 off ten overs, bagging US Aussie run machine Matt Rogers for a duck.
Only Tom May (46) and Matt Easton (46) got to grips with things as US managed only 192-8.
After Ben Clarke (23) and Tom Stafford (29) had provided a half-century start, Corbin made 43 and with support from Pierre Kriel (38) and Alex Horton (28) got Ventnor home after 28 overs.
Sunny Bhimsaria, pictured, was newly promoted Bishops Waltham’s match winner against Fareham & Crofton at Bath Lane, hitting an unbeaten 92 as his side chased down 181-7 to win by eight wickets.
He struck two sixes and 13 boundaries as Waltham, with support from Dom Quincey (20) and Mark Boriani (25 not out), coasted home with 21 overs to spare.
Earlier, skipper Tom Kent (50) and Matt Gould (41) pointed youthful Fareham to 181-7 (Sam Medhurst 4-28).
The weekend did have a major plus point for Tom Kent, who is celebrating a ‘first’ in Geography  at Reading University.
OTs & Romsey posted 227 (Tom George 55) before bowling Andover II out for 123.
No shortage of runs at Allotment Road, where Sarisbury Athletic’s 280-7 (Colin Day 72) proved just beyond Totton & Eling II (264-9) for whom Wayne Lockyer hit 110.

Bishops Waltham’s debut season in the Hampshire Cricket League’s top rung is well and truly up and running after a third successive win, an eight-wicket thrashing of Fareham & Crofton.
Newly promoted as runners-up to United Services in County Division 2 last term, Bishops got an immediate eye opener about the step up in playing standards when Alton II, relegated from Southern Premier Division 3 in 2015, trounced them by eight wickets in their opening game.
An 11-run defeat by St Cross Symondians III followed, but since them Bishops have moved into a comfortable mid-table slot with three straight wins. 
They won by 37 runs at Ventnor II, edged out much fancied Portsmouth & Southsea by one run, and then celebrated their best win yet by eight wickets at Bath Lane.
The past two wins have been with Sunny Bhimsaria, the club’s latest Hong Kong recruit, playing in the side.
The 22-year old leg-spin bowler, who spent a Western Australian ‘winter’ in Perth at former Hampshire manager Paul Terry’s Cricket Academy in 2012/13 and played Grade cricket for Melville, bowled a tidy ten-over spell to set up the P & S win.
But let his batting do the talking against Fareham & Crofton, hitting an unbeaten 92 as his side chased down 181-7 to win by eight wickets.
He went unrewarded with his leg-spin, his effectiveness nullified by bowling primarily at left-handers Tom Kent (50) and Matt Gould (41), who forced skipper Dan Wheeler to withdraw him from the attack after six overs.
But after tea, Bhimsaria showed off his batting prowess, striking two sixes and 13 boundaries as Waltham, with support from Dom Quincey (20) and Mark Boriani (25 not out), coasted home with 21 overs to spare.
“It was an awesome innings and brilliant to watch,' said Wheeler.
“He hit the bad balls, picked the gaps and was unlucky not to end up with a ton.
“Batting has been an issue but his innings had a calming effect on our other players.
“We probably had the better of the (uncovered) pitch which was lively early on because of the overnight rain.
“Off-spinner Sam Medhurst bowled well, taking 4-28, getting the ball to grip and turn.”
There has been even better news for Waltham on the back of the Fareham victory.
Ross Bullard, who spearheaded last season’s promotion drive with 737 County Division 2 runs, announced his return from injury with an unbeaten 122 in Waltham II’s 88-run win over Liphook & Ripsley in County 3 North.
“That really was a bonus.  Filling the void left by a guy who had scored over 700 runs the previous season was very difficult, so that’s marvellous news.”

 

Fifteen-year old Dan Wimble broke off his GCSE examination studies to take six wickets for six runs - including an 'all bowled' hat-trick - as Fareham & Crofton seconds crushed previously unbeaten Hampshire League County Division 4 South leaders Railway Triangle by 160 runs at Bath Lane.
The Meoncross schoolboy ripped out the entire Triangle middle-order to send the Portsmouth side spinning to 66 all out.  Richard Emery took three of the other wickets for just two runs.
Fareham earlier posted 226-6, with Roy Townson (79), Richard Webb (32) and Wimble (27) top scoring.

Only one unbeaten County Division 1 record will remain intact by the time England’s footballers launch their Euro 2016 campaign in Marseilles.
Three unblemished starts ended last weekend, leaving Alton and Hook & Newnham Basics second teams the only undefeated sides.
By a quirk of fixture fate, they just happened to be playing each other at Hook’s King George VI Ground today and In-form Basics skipper Kevin Light wants to see his side pull clear.
But Hook almost came a cropper – alongside Portsmouth & Southsea, Purbrook and United Services – at Totton & Eling, who finished a boundary-hit shy of a notable victory when the teams met in a top v bottom affair at Southern Gardens.
Hook posted 267-9 on the back of teenager Jack Robson (69), Matt Buckingham (51) and Andrew Dormody (43).
But the young and improving Eels almost won, with Wayne Lockyer’s 77 the pivot of a late run flurry which saw one-time Hampshire off-spinner Richard Dibden (38) lead Totton to 277 all out and an agonising three-run defeat.
Alton’s 16-run win over Purbrook was based almost entirely around [pictured] Ryan Hale’s unbeaten 102 which underpinned a total of 191-7.
Purbrook’s reply fell apart at the seams. They were 88-8 (Tom Paul 4-33) before a ninth-wicket recovery got them to 175 all out.
P & S fancy themselves as potential CD1 winners, but a slender one-run defeat at Bishops Waltham knocked their early prospects.
Don Quincey (49) top scored in Waltham’s 142-9, but incoming Hong Kong leggie Sunny Bhimsaria proved more than enough for P & S, who finished one short at 141-9, despite Matt Benfield’s half-century.
Newly promoted US got a scare at St Cross Symondians III a week earlier and when visiting New Milton III trimmed them by seven runs at Burnaby Road their record had gone as well.
Ryan Beck’s 69 underpinned Milton’s 183, which owed much to late order trio Joe Hall, Dave Crossley and Matt Baker.
US appeared to be cruising home at 136-4 (Yashan Akila 62), but tumbled to 176 all out, with Hall (3-25) and Baker (3-23) doing the damage.
South African Tim Niemand hit 139 and Alex Stogdon (80) as Ropley posted a hefty 356-9  before completing a 204-run win over visiting Ventnor II’s youthful islanders.
Andover beat Sarisbury Athletic by six wickets, but slipped to 58-4 before Harry Blackburn (60) and Luke Andrews (34) eased them past the visitors’ 163 (Manders 56).
OTs & Romsey chased down Burridge’s 193, while Ben Kissane’s 70 played a major part as Fareham & Crofton got home by five wickets after hosts Ellingham had posted 203.
Steve Fryer bailed St Cross Symondians out of the mire at 86-7 and went on to win the Chris James sponsored man-of-the-match prize.
The St Cross secretary scored an innings changing 65 not out and, along with  Henry Eades took three wickets as Shrewton were dismissed for 143, some way short of their hosts 199 all out.
 
 

Five clubs have emerged from the opening month of the Hampshire League season unscathed – but one of those unbeaten tags will be removed on Saturday.
That’s when Alton II host Purbrook at the Jubilee Ground – each looking for a fourth win on the bounce.
Alton were relegated with all hands from Premier 3 last season, but they’re shaping up nicely this season – with much the same side, which suggests a gulf in standards between the two leagues.
The Brewers sent Shrewton’s own three-match winning start up in smoke when they piled up a thumping 296-6, with top three Joe Paul (81), Howard Gadsby (70) and Andy Postles (67) scoring the lion’s share.
The run fest didn’t continue when Shrewton got to the crease, as only Stuart Cruse (36) (who had earlier taken 4-52) made his mark in a disappointing 139 all out.
Stephen Ball (3-19) did the early damage before Richard Anthony (3-20) cut through the Shrewton belly.
Purbrook’s own win over Totton & Eling’s young visitors was equally emphatic – the junior Eels being shot out for 94, with James Gurney taking 4-33.
Brad Mengham, back from a short stint at Waterlooville, made an unbeaten 33 in Purbrook’s eight-wicket success.
Skipper Martin Lee, probably still shocked Purbrook (so often marooned by wet early season weather)  have started so well, isn’t getting carried away by his team’s promising launch.
“We’ve only played the teams in the lower half of the table,” he warned his squad.
Portsmouth & Southsea’s third straight win – by eight wickets – over Ellingham took 24 overs of bowling time and a mere 21 minutes with the bat !
Matt Benfield (5-17), pictured, proved virtually unplayable as Ellingham were skittled for 58 and were on their way home long before they’d cut the cucumber sarnies after Jack Davies had biffed a nine-four 42.
In total contrast, Hook & Newnham Basics’ eventual two-wicket win over Andover II went to the wire, with victory being snatched after 49.4 overs !
Openers Harri (cor) Williams (31) and Alex Thompson (30) gave Andover a start, which Olly Cox (41) improved.  But from 149-2, Andover perhaps might have scored more than 238.
Nonetheless, it proved a real challenge as Hook, on the back foot at 79-4 (Jack Robson 30), rallied through Ben Allnutt (50), but still needed partnerships – and 78 more runs - when injured skipper Kevin Light (calf) emerged from the KGV pavilion.
“I managed to add vital runs with Andrew Darmody (39) and Liam Doran (17) before I was dismissed (29) with what can only be described as a spectacular one-handed diving catch from Andover’s Luke Andrews on the boundary in front of the sight screen,” said Light.
“It prevented a six and still left us needing 18, but our last pair of Kish Parmar and Glen Williams saw us home - with two balls to go.”
Like Hook, newly promoted United Services are probably wondering how they remain unbeaten prior to New Milton’s Burnaby Road visit.
They were rushed out for 114 by St Cross Symondians III, who still contrived to lose by seven runs – the match lasting barely 60 of its scheduled 100-overs.
What runs there were came from US pair Aussie Matt Rogers (31), Gary Hounsome (28) and Mark Toogood (23), while St Cross reflected somewhat ruefully on the 13 wides Jamie Burgess sent down as they fell seven short at 107 all out.
Jonathan Parker’s new ball spell of 4-16 arguably won it for US, who looked capable of letting it slip when the St Cross tail wagged from 82-8.
Former Bournemouth all-rounder Joe Hall (6-14) was the hero of New Milton’s 75-run win over Ropley, who need to beat Ventnor II today to avoid being sucked into the CD1 danger zone.
Despite Lynton Staniford being sidelined – he trod on the ball in the warm-up - they were rushed out for 127, having been a promising 63-1 at one stage.
New Milton’s 202 was built around a fourth-wicket stand of 97 between Ashley Collison (56) and William Crossley (38), though Ropley hardly did their cause any good by conceding 33 extras.

There’s nothing like finishing your final university exams with a celebration or two ....
Fareham & Crofton’s 21-year old left-hander Tom Kent, pictured, toasted the end of three years of Geography studies at Reading uni with a maiden hundred.
And it couldn’t have been more significant as Fareham needed to halt a two-match losing start in County 1 and beat local rivals Burridge II.
They did just that, with Kent carrying his bat for 106 and Oli Southon hitting 61 (after taking 3-53) as Fareham chased down a Burridge total of 232-7 (Oli Wright 70) at Bath Lane to win by two wickets to spare.
There were two centuries at Allotment Road, where Chris Bolton’s 111 for Sarisbury Athletic proved in vain as OTs & Romsey pair Paul Longland (103) and Shane Vidler (95) swept the visitors past 259-6 to win by seven wickets.
New boys Bishops Waltham recorded their first CD1 victory when they posted 193-8 (Andy Wakely 43) and won by 37 runs after dismissing Ventnor II for 156 (Pierre Kriel 47).
