St Mary Bourne not unreasonably anticipated a long hot World Cup soccer afternoon in the field after Andover's opening batsmen smacked 15 runs off Jamie Coombs' first over.
But that was as good as it got for the Lions in the Hampshire League Regional North West One match.
Four runs later they were 19 all out - club secretary Martin Clay, pictured in front of the scoreboard, bowling at the opposite end, taking a double hat-trick and finishing with astonishing figures of seven wickets for two runs ! It was his first five-wicket haul in HCL cricket.
St Mary Bourne raced to a ten-wicket win and were in the local pub long before Gareth Southgate's final team talk before England's 2-0 win in Moscow !
