Havant are well and truly fastened to the ECB Southern Premier League basement for the first time in their long history after Lymington beat them by five wickets at The Park.
They have not won since beating Burridge, last year's champions, since the opening day and, after nine rounds of games, are effectively 16 points adrift at the bottom.
Gareth Berg (5-52), back after leading Italy to further ICC success in Rome, marked his return by demolishing Havant's top order - the dismissal of Robert Woolley (22) triggering the loss of five quick wickets, four with the score stuck on 34-1.  
Pete Hopson (37) dropped himself down the batting order and, with Richard Hindley getting 50 at the other end, matters improved considerably with a stand of 93.
Hindley, a popular first choice to resolve a crisis, went on to score 84 not out (13 fours) and, with late assistance from Arun Tubman, saw Havant through to 193 before Hampshire 50s prospect Asad Abbas (4-18) cleaned up the tail.

​Lymington, always unpredictable, promptly lurched to 10-3 - Chris Morgan (3-61) striking twice - before Monam Abbas (83 not out) and Kamran Dhariwal (53) came to the rescue with a century stand.   Conor Moors (28) added useful runs as Lymington guided to a five-wicket win.
