Hampshire Seniors have been knocked out of both the ECB 50-plus and Seevent Over-60s county championships.
One time Northlands Road staff-man Mel Hussain plotted the 50s downfall as Essex romped to an eight-wicket win at Billericay.
Hampshire could only manage 117 (Neil Trestrail 55) as Hussein took 3-16 and later hit 38 not out to lead Essex home.
Hampshire 60s crashed to a nine-wicket defeat by Surrey after posting a well below par 189-7 at Horsley & Send.
Terry Morton (45) and Paul Kerley (33 not out) top scored for Hampshire, who took a Surrey wicket with the second ball after tea – and then chased the leather !
Chris Evans (110 not out) and Nigel Angus (63 not out) added an unbroken 189 for the second wicket as Surrey won with 17 overs to spare.
