Sarisbury Athletic skipper Rob Franklin [Dave Reynolds]
Skipper Rob Franklin has his table topping Sarisbury Athletic team on red alert ahead of the visit of Southern Premier Division 1 leadership challengers Hook & Newnham Basics to Allotment Road, 12.30pm.
Third placed Hook shattered Portsmouth's unbeaten start after a 298-run avalanche at the KGV last week - and Franklin doesn't want a repeat against his own bowlers.
Instead, he'll want his own run guns Tom Morton, Karleen Cookson & Co to do the scoring and put third place Hook under pressure. Nathan Feltham returns for Sarisbury.
Sarisbury Athletic: Franklin, Morton, Cookson, Robson, Rawlins, J Hill, Feltham, Pascoe, Clark, S Hill, Williams.
Hook & Newnham Basics: Warner, Lockwood, Neville, M Buckingham, Armstrong, J Buckingham, James, Murrell, Watts, C Hall, Divecha.
Deposed leaders Portsmouth are forced to tweak their spin resources with Tom Lewis and Raj Rao missing Ventnor's visit to St Helen's. Teen Charlie Collins comes in alongside the promising Matt Shaw.
Portsmouth: Duggan, Joy, Ashraful, Gadd, Christian, Daini, Wimble, Shaw, Kooner-Evans, Warner, Collins.
Ventnor: Bartlett, Guerin, Cox, Thimodya, Snell, H Calloway, Noyes, Morgan, C Calloway, Watts, Lucy.
OTs & Romsey give an SPL1 debut to 16-year old left-armer Abu Rasheed, who has come through the inner city Hampshire Hawks programme, having impressed with his skills and dedication to becoming the best player he can. He makes his bow in the Calmore Sports derby at Romsey.
OTs & Romsey: King, Vaughan, Noble, Tulk, Newman, A Bampton, Ponting, Peruzi, George, M Bampton , A Rasheed
Calmore Sports: B. Johns, C. Diston, W. Brewster, M.Taylor, B. Jewer, M. Cook, M. Bailey, B. Perry, R. Lomax, O. Hibberd, M. Lavelle.
Boosted by consecutive wins, Rowledge have climbed the table but all-rounder Will Ryman misses the home match with Totton & Eling at Church Road.
Rowledge: Ben Wish, Jonty Sebborn, Zac Le Roux, Max Martin, Hugh Croft, Olly Ryman, Richard Forbes, Ollie Baker, David Lloyd, Ryan Littlewood, Justin Felsch.
Skittled for 80 by OTs & Romsey last week, Waterlooville are desperate for their top order batsmen to start scoring runs. Sonny Reynolds returns at Andover.
Waterlooville: A Reynolds A, Broadhurst G, Hudson J, McCoy J, Birch D, McGregor J, Shephard A, Reynolds S, Jackson T, Silva A, Mitchell J Reynolds S.
