MILTON MISERY CONTINUES AS SCOTT HITS LYMINGTON TON

Ryan Scott celebrated his second ECB Southern Premier League century as Lymington heaped more misery on their New Milton neighbours with a crushing 156-run victory in a one-sided derby at the Sports Ground.
Scott brought up his unbeaten 101 just as Lymington declared at 285-3 off 57 overs – a total the Green & Golds had little hope of matching.
They were bowled out for 129, the last five wickets falling for seven runs.
Scott (photo courtesy of Lymington Times) built on the 79-run platform Oli Calcott (40) and Dom Hand (34) secured to compile his run-a-ball hundred, which contained a six and nine fours.
The son of Middlesex head coach Richard Scott, he enjoyed a 48-run stand with debut-making Henry Edwards (31) which tended with Milton teenager Luke Mortimore taking his third catch of the innings.
That was New Milton’s last bit of joy as Scott and Queenslander James Grady (71 not out) added a further and unbroken 150 before the declaration.
Such are New Milton’s current playing resources - they do not have an overseas player this summer and were without lead batsman Tom Arnold at Lymington – there was little hope of them putting up more than token resistance and so it proved.
Lee Beck (54) and James Haggaty (39) battled manfully from 14-2, but once they were parted at 73 wickets fell at regular intervals.
Grady completed his best Lymington match so far with a 3-27 return, while Dimitri Adams added a wicket brace to his two earlier catches as Milton crumbled from 122-5 to 129 all out.
A fifth straight defeat has effectively left New Milton 55 points adrift at the basement.
