Andy Perry match winning 125* for Havant [The News]
Andy Perry carried his bat for an undefeated 125 as Havant bat hosts Bashley (Rydal) by 15 runs to record a second consecutive win at the start of the inaugural ECB Southern Electric Premier Division season.
He enjoyed a fruitful second-wicket stand with Luke Sears (38) and, more significantly, 90 with Simon Greenfield (22*) after Havant had dipped from a promising 83-1 to 124-6.
Neil Thurgood (79) responded for Bashley, who faced an uphill task from 56-4. Neil Taylor (43) rallied in a 99-run stand with Thurgood but with Stephen Foulger and Phil Loat sharing six wickets, the task proved too great for the New Forest club, who were dismissed for 199.
A dramatic finish at Loperwood Park saw Calmore Sports bowl Andover out off the penultimate ball to secure a thrilling two-run victory – the Lions losing their last four wickets for two runs when they were almost home and dry.
Rob Budd (48) and Martin Kellaway (36) guided Calmore to 108-2, but Andy Hooper (4-30) and Mark Miller (3-11) sent the last eight wickets tumbling for 56 runs and the innings to 164 all out.
Andover looked a good bet after the Miller brothers Mark (57) and Roger (44) took Andover’s reply to 119-2, but Charlie Freestone’s 5-16 rocked the boat and sent the visitors crashing from 160-6 to 162 all out.
South African David Pryke conceded just 12 runs off his ten-over stint but was unable to prevent Bournemouth from a five-wicket win over Hungerford at Chapel Gate.
Hungerford were defending 197-6 (Jim Ettridge 78, Steve Wyatt 44), but were effectively undone by Matt Swarbrick (69) and Mike Stonier (39), who eased Bournemouth to 127-1. Three wickets fell for 26 before Charlie Holcombe biffed a timely 35 to get his side across the line.
Totton & Eling were in a spot of bother at 128-9 (Chris Thomason 54) against Cove at Southern Gardens, but Dan Goldstraw (22) and the promising Simon Preston added precious runs to ensure a final 162-9 would be a winner. Thomason then struck with the ball, his 4-18 return sinking Cove for 132 (Jimmy Adams 40).
Buridge v South Wilts was called off due to an unfit ground.

Glyn Treagus [above] took four wickets and then struck an unbeaten hundred to carry Lymington to an eight-wicket win over Division 2 rivals Hursley Park, who had been dismissed for 171 (Dave Jackson 61, Paul Edwards 35). Zac Morris returned 4-30 and then hit 37* to partner Treagus, who brought up his 100 by making the winning hit.
Winchester KS crashed to 92 all out and an eight-wicket defeat by Portsmouth, with Lawrie Prittipaul (4-20) and Dean Oliffe (3-19) doing the damage. Jeff Pike (34) and Matt Scott (29) completed the formalities before the bar opened.
Guy Lewis (4-19), now in the Australian Navy, did his bit but was unable to spare United Services from a three-wicket defeat by Liphook & Ripsley. Rob Savage (35) top scored in a modest US total of 137, which Liphook overhauled after losing early wickets. The then promising Jez Bulled (48) and Duncan Berry (36) turned the tide.
One-time Hampshire Under-16 star Ian Tulk (* picture coming soon) top scored for the second consecutive week as OTs & Romsey got home by 11 runs against Alton, who lost their last four wickets for 11 runs, having been in a promising position at 107-2.
Tulk made 57 and elder brother Stuart (36) steered OTs to 188-7. Julian Ballinger (Ed: why does he bat 11 now-adays ?) hit back with 45 and Richie Morgan (41) as Alton hit back, only to collapse to 177 all out against Terry Azor (4-34) and Nick Wood (3-25).
Social media mogul Simon Williams (4-32) and Richard Bull (3-18) plotted the downfall of Hambledon and set up a 34-run win for Trojans, who posted 141 (Mario Mohamad 41). Former Hampshire left-arm spinner Ian Turner took 4-11 and Garry Shotton 3-22, but there was little prospect of a Hambledon win after seven wickets fell for 56. They rallied to reach 107.

Matt Perry-Lewis 5-38 in a losing St Cross Symondians cause against Eastleigh.
Gosport ace John Adams Eastleigh pulled off a nail-biting one-run win against Division 3 rivals St Cross Symondians who, chasing 184-8 (Matt Perry-Lewis 5-38), looked certain winners themselves after Graham Barrett (83) and Mark Padwick (39) had eased their reply to 157-3. But John Barnes broke through with a 4-33 return to leave St Cross marooned one short at 183-7.
