Kings’ of Winchester are Hampshire Schools’ Under-15 champions after beating hot favourites Priestlands by 12 runs in a thrilling final at Hursley Park.
They beat Eggars, Test Valley, John Hanson and Shanklin to reach the final, but were underdogs against their Lymington opponents, who won the cup in 2015 and paraded three Hampshire Under-15 players.
After a cautious start in damp conditions at The Quarters, Kings’ accelerated to post 129/7 with key contributions from Harry Trussler, Ashley Lovell and Josh Corner.
With their strong batting line-up, Priestlands were expected to win with some degree of comfort but Kings’ bowled and fielded superbly checking the run rate with frequent wickets.
Going into the last five overs the outcome was poised on a knife-edge but Kings’ held their nerve to triumph by 12 runs and so add to the school’s impressive tally of County Cup sporting victories.
