Marcus Braggington (60) and [right] Owen Morris (56) shared a 127-run fifth-wicket partnership to put Parley firmly in the driving seat and ultimately knock Fawley off their top overnight Southern Premier Division 3 perch.
Parley's innings was at a potential crossroads at 77-4 (Tom Saunders 37) when the pair came together but bhy the time Raminer Singh (5-33) had removed the pair the hosts were headed towards 241-8.
Fawley were sent reeling at 42-6 by a new ball spell by Bo Powell (4-20) and only Bailey Parratt (31) put up much resistance before becoming a victim of Braggington (3-36).  Fawley were 112 all out and beaten by 129 runs.

Tom Pearce hits a four over mid-wicket [Roy Honeybone]
​Tom Pearce struck a season's best 71 and Sam Pittman snared five victims behind the stumps, but neither was able to prevent South Wilts II slipping to a four-wicket defeat by Southern Premier Division 3 newcomers Hursley Park at Bemerton.
Pearce, who has been in particularly good form bowling his left-arm spin, hit eight fours and a six and shared a 72-run partnership with teenager Alex Vincent (31).
But South Wilts' eventual 186-9 was below par as Hursley recovered from 49-3 to reach the target with his 11 overs to spare, Melbourne-based all-rounder Paddy McNamara following his 3-17 return with a key 60 with the bat.

Andrew Galliers (68) and Stu Ransley (59 not out) hit half-centuries as Havant II celebrated a first SPL3 win of the summer with a comfortable six-wicket win over fellow strugglers Fareham & Crofton at The Park.
Alongside Simon Loat (33) and Pete Hayward (32) they chipped off  Fareham's 227-5 largely built around openers Tom Kent (75) and Craig Jeffery (42).
