Bournemouth are only two points behind St Cross Symondians ahead of round seven of the ECB Southern Premier Division, with all ten clubs having lost at least once.
Narrowly beaten in the May 1 curtain raiser by St Cross, Bournemouth have Adam Davies back behind the stumps and batting four when Hook & Newnham Basics visit Chapel Gate, where Luke Matthews wears the captain’s armband as Chris Park is injured.
Teenage leggie Josh Balcombe comes in for his Hook debut and will operate in tandem with Aniket  Divecha, whose midweek visit to a Basingstoke faith healer has coincided with a recovery from the back injury that forced him out of the attack against Bashley last weekend.  Matt Love is also back, giving Hook’s batting greater depth.
Bournemouth: Matthews, N Park, Collins, Webb, Davies, Pack, Denham, Woodruff, Hurley, Conway, Brecken.
Hook & Newnham Basics: J Buckingham, Lockwood, Robson, M Buckingham, Love, Murrell, Divecha, Willcock, Hobday, Moore, Balcombe.

Absent St Cross Symondians captain Ed Ellis is waiting anxiously on a call from Harry Came to see if Derbyshire’s latest recruit can play against rock bottom Alton at the Jubilee Ground.
Came signed for the Falcons in midweek and could have Vitality Blast T20 matches against Leicestershire (tonight) and Birmingham Bears on Sunday.
Ryan Hale gets the call for Alton after scoring a Hampshire League century against Hursley Park last weekend, as does Harry Trussler (144 v Portsmouth) for the league leaders.
Alton: Gonella, South, Middleton, Hale, Harris, Myers, Wright, Heffernan, Walter, Salmon, Ballinger.
St Cross Symondians: Organ, Foyle, Came, Taylor, Trussler, Foyle, Haworth, Beetham, Haworth, Brooke, Woolvine.
Third placed champions Bashley (Rydal), six points adrift at the top, were hoping to have Bradley Currie back for the visit of the Hampshire Academy to the BCG.
But the left-arm quick, who hasn’t played since taking five wickets against South Wilts on the opening day of the season, is stranded in Scotland, where he has been trialling for Nichola Sturgeon’s team.
Rhodes Franklin is back and replaces Sam Kennett, who suffered from faulty glovework at Hook. 
Bashley (Rydal): Porter, Digby, Gordon, Fisher, Friend, Jacques, Franklin, ilson, Stroud, Crisp, Fletcher.
Academy: Albert, Eckland, Broderick, Kelly, Cheater, Trodd, Pritchard, Khanna, Tomlinson, Simpson, Cordery.
Havant, among the six teams with one loss, plan to take an unchanged side to Burridge, who also have a rearranged Sunday match against the young Hawks.
Burridge: Will Donald, Joe Collings-Wells, Will Candy, Hilio De Abreu, Chris Blake, Shu Chowdhury, Brad Griffiths, Matthew Norris, Daniel Stancliffe, Oli Southon , Sullivan White.
Havant: Ben Walker, Pete Hopson, George Metzger, Harry Gadd, Simon Loat, Chris Morgan, Jez Bulled, Richard Hindley, Fred Gadd, Alf Taw, Richard Jerry.
Matt Burton, who ripped through St Cross Symondians’ top order with a career best 6-45 return last weekend, will receive his Cricketer of the Week award when South Wilts go to Lymington.
He pipped centurions Tom Friend, Henry Glanfield (Hambledon), Ben Walker and seven victim Ben Draper in a closely contested poll.
Lymington, who have lost their last three matches, have opener Terry Crabb back to bolster their frail batting.
Lymington: Metcalfe, Royan, Mortimore, Crabb, Rogers, Scott, Du Plooy, Cox, Attrill, Proctor, Wade.
South Wilts: Morton, Stearman, Rowe, Hayward, Draper, Hussey, Godsal, Grant, Warner, Lewis, Burton.
