David Griffiths 10 wickets against Hook & Newnham Basics in 2017.
Arch rivals Basingstoke & North Hants and Hook & Newnham Basics are set to lock horns in the Southern Premier League for the first time since September 2017.
The pair will both play ‘white ball’ Division 1 cricket next summer, Hook having been relegated from the ECB Premier Division this past season.
Led by then player/coach David Griffiths, Basingstoke completed a comprehensive double in 2017, the former Hampshire and Kent pace bowler taking five-wicket returns in both matches, with Hook being skittled for a dismal 53 in the first game.
Hook will host the first of next season’s matches at the KGV on June 10, with the return at May’s Bounty on August 12 2023..
The local duo play their first matches away on King Charles III’s Coronation Day, May 6, with Basingstoke facing the long haul to New Milton and Hook encountering a tough opener at Sarisbury Athletic.
Hambledon, who have achieved back-to-back promotions in the last two seasons, set sail to the Isle of Wight to play Ventnor in round one, with Portsmouth hosting Calmore Sports and Rowledge paired away to promoted Andover.
Division 1 set up: Andover, Basingstoke & North Hants, Calmore Sports, Hambledon, Hook & Newnham Basics, New Milton, Portsmouth, Rowledge, Sarisbury Athletic, Ventnor.
