South Wilts teenager Jack Stearman has struck his first century on Australian soil, scoring 121 for his adopted Melbourne club Parkdale against McKinnon in the Southern Bayside League Division 3.
Stearman, who is spending a gap winter in Australia before studying Russian at university next autumn, previously hit 108 for South Wilts against the Hampshire Academy in 2018, prior to which he twice hit hundreds in U15 cricket and two more in the Hampshire League.  Parkdale posted 264-9 before bowling McKinnon out for 111.
South Wilts teammate Will Harries is also playing his trade Down Under this winter and has taken seven wickets and made some handy down the order knocks for Parkdale's first grade side.
With 15 wickets, including a 4-25 return against New City this weekend, South Wilts’ pace bowler Luke Evans is St Patrick’s leading bowler in Albury cricket, close to the NSW/Victoria state border. He served up his best delivery in early November when his daughter Ella Sophia was born.

The five Southern Premier League clubs who have entered next year's ECB Royal London national club championship have all landed juicy first round ties, two of them away to 2018 title winning sides.
In the ties on Sunday 10 May 2020 -

• ​South Wilts will travel across Salisbury Plain to visit West of England Premier League winners Potterne, who are based just south of Devizes;​
• Burridge go to three-times ECB Home Counties Premier League champions Henley;
• 2019 Southern Premier League champions Bashley (Rydal) host Bath;
• Havant are drawn away to Oxfordshire-based Aston Rowatt, who finished fourth in the Home Counties Premier League this past summer; and
• competition debutants St Cross Symondians play at home to powerful Surrey Championship club Weybridge, who have beaten Havant several times in recent seasons.

Only clubs from accredited ECB Premier Leagues will play in the 2020 Royal London Cup, which again has its final at Lord's, with 128 team participating.

Former Havant all-rounder Andy Gorvin will captain St Fagans next summer, having played  a lead role in Cardiff club’s ECB South Wales Premier League championship triumph this year.
He hit five fifty-plus scores in a 467-run aggregate and captured 41 wickets as St Fagans celebrated their first title success in 14 years.  Gorvin also played regularly for Wales Minor Counties side.
The Hayling Island raised Gorvin is studying for a Masters Degree at Cardiff University.

Isle of Wight spin all-rounder Ben Attrill has struck his first fifty on Australian soil - but his battling 62 for his adopted WA club Denmark proved in vain as the Danes fell to a 57-run defeat by Royals in the Albury & District 45-over competition.
Batting first wicket down, Attrill [left], who plays his Southern Premier Division cricket on the mainland for Lymington, batted almost the entire length of Denmark's 156 and was tenth out, having struck five boundaries in scoring 62 off 106 balls. The Danes, chasing Royals 213-7, collapsed from 83-1, with Attrill holding the innings together.
Having spent last winter playing near Queenstown on New Zealand's South Island, Havant's Harry Gadd has crossed the Tasman Sea and pitched up with Charlestown, who play in the Newcastle District competition in Northern New South Wales.
Gadd has so made made scores of 42 (Waratah Mayfield) and 44 (University) besides taking five wickets for Charlestown, who lie third in the log.

Hartley Wintney groomed Will Phillips has been appointed to skipper 2018 champions Richmond in the ECB Middlesex County Premier League next season.
With 716 runs, including seven fifties, Phillips finished third in the Middlesex CPL batting averages this summer, having helped the Old Deer Park club lift the title in his previous debut season.
Phillips, who weighed in with a handy 11 wickets, cut his teeth in recreational cricket locally with Hartley Wintney, before moving on to play at Alton and Basingstoke & North Hants while he was studying at Durham University.  
Havant raised Robert Gibson will be Phillips’s on-field adviser as Richmond bid to regain their crown from 2019 winners North Middlesex.

Sparsholt have welcomed the decision at the recent Southern Premier League’s annual meeting not to introduce the ‘white ball’ and coloured clothing element into 50-over Division 1 cricket next season.
The ten SPL1 clubs had been given the option to switch from traditional ‘red ball’ cricket and mirror the Premier Division by playing either the whole or part of the 2020 season in coloured kit, with black sight-screens and with a white ball.
But the idea didn’t catch on – so ‘red ball’ cricket will stay, certainly next summer.
Sparsholt chairman Andy Worth, whose side finished runners-up to champions Hook & Newnham Basicsin their inaugural season back in SPL1, said: “We are not against white ball cricket as a club.
“However, in today’s climate we have to be very careful where we spend our limited funds and looking at a cost of between £2k to 3k to do white ball properly with the impact on logistics is not something easily managed. 
“We have a coloured kit currently for t20 which some might think can be transferred straight to ‘white ball’ cricket, unfortunately this is not the case as our coloured kit is only used 4 or 5 times a year and returned after each game. 
“With ‘white ball’ cricket, players will want their own gear which we feel would need to be subsidised. “With nine clubs who have played Division 1 cricket over the last 3 to 4 years receiving some form of pitch warning, including Sparsholt, I certainly believe investment should be in the pitches, with perhaps some funded support from the league. 
“We’ve invested heavily in our ground and are still paying the ECB for a loan for equipment but have seen massive benefits from this at our club in both players skill levels and recruitment. We’re not clear on whether white ball cricket would bring similar benefits.”
• Sparsholt’s Norman Edwards headquarters at Locks Lane topped the SPL1 Ground League table in 2019.

Andover talent Alex Ayers is beginning to find his feet after an inauspicious start to his cricketing winter with Sydney Grade club Parramatta.  
Ayers flew to Australia in late September on the back of a particularly fine summer locally,  scoring some 1,200 runs for Jon Ayling’s Dauntsey’s School, near Devizes, and almost 500 in half a season for Southern Premier League Division 1 side Andover, including two centuries, 135 against Rowledge and 122 v Ventnor. 
The Amport-based 18-year old immediately found himself plunged in at the deep end with Parramatta, where the late great Richie Benaud cut his teeth in District cricket before going on to captain Australia in 28 of his 63 Tests.
He pouched more victims (nine) behind the stumps than he scored more runs with the bat in his first four knocks for Parramatta’s second grade side.
But a half-century, which helped set up a seven-wicket win for Parramatta IIs over Hawkesbury, has given Ayers a timely confidence boost and got some much needed runs under his belt.
He confessed: “I only got seven runs in those four knocks and it took me longer than expected to adapt to play over here, probably the best part of two months, if I’m honest.
“Playing Grade matches over two Saturdays, you have to get used to not batting every-week. Sometimes 3 weeks without a bat. In terms of the wickets they are better to bat on in theory. Hopefully I’ve found a way now.”
                                                                                   Right direction
Since making 59 as Parramatta chased down Hawkesbury’s 236, Ayers has made 26 (v Sutherland), 47 against Sydney University, and 29 in last weekend’s Shield match with Fairford-Liverpool.
“My form has turned in right direction perhaps because earlier I was overthinking it a bit. I’ve gone back to basics and hitting in the V,” he explained.
“Second grade is pretty good. Sydney, apparently, is best in Australia. I think top second teams would challenge those of the Southern Premier and it seems as though we could go on a decent run in the competition this winter.”
Ayers, whose elder spin bowling brother Charlie also plays for Andover, certainly isn’t homesick or getting bored.
“I earn my pocket money coaching and doing the odd day’s work helping an electrician out. Other than that I try and train as much as I can,” he said.
“Grade cricket clubs train hard twice a week as well, so I’ve got plenty to do.
“I’ve really enjoyed exploring Sydney and it’s beaches. Thankfully, we are not in proximity to the fires that have devesated large parts of New South Wales, but there’s been plenty of smoke in the city.
“The coming month will be busy and exciting, with the Big Bash starting and Pakistan playing in the New Year Test at the SCG, so there will be plenty to do.
"But my over-riding want is to do well here. I've been given a terrific opportunity to play in a sport crazy city and I intend to make the most of it.
"I tasted a bit of county Second XI cricket with Hampshire this past season and want some more. If I can improve my all-round game while I'm in Australia, it will hold me in good stead for 2020 in England."

Bournemouth University’s cricketing students are through to the southern regional finals of the BUCS indoor sixes tournament after winning all seven qualifying round matches at Eastleigh’s Fleming Park.
Basingstoke & North Hants spin all-rounder Ash Neal led the way as Bournemouth defeated teams from Brunel, Chichester, reigning national champions Portsmouth, and Southampton to win the pool with an unblemished 100 per cent record.
Neal, left, clocked up 197 runs in the seven matches, without being dismissed once. His run tally included a maiden 50 against Portsmouth, alongside six ‘retired’ knocks and several tidy spin bowling performances.
Arsalan Abbas, Brad Currie and Neal were all unbeaten with the bat as Bournemouth completed a double over Brunel’s two sides - before Dan Goodey (3-18) and Neal (2-19) shot Chichester out for 90 – a total the tournament winners chased down with some comfort.
Beating 2019 BUCS winners Portsmouth proved the pivotal result in Bournemouth’s pursuit of a place in January’s southern regional finals.
Currie and Neal both made 25 not out as Bournemouth posted 97 – a score they successfully defended with leg spinner Lawrence Snookes claiming a hat-trick as Portsmouth were dismissed for 77.
Bournemouth cruised to later victories over Portsmouth II and Southampton University’s A and B sides to reach the southern regional finals in style.
Results –
​Bournemouth 99-0 (Currie 25*, Neal 25*) beat Brunel A 97 (Currie 1-18) by six wickets.
Bournemouth 58-1 (Abbas 25*, Neal 22*) beat Brunel B 57 (Currie 2-6, Goodey 2-12) by five wickets.
Bournemouth 93-2 (Abbas 25*, Neal 25*) beat Chichester 89 (Goodey 3-18, Neal 2-19) by four wickets.
Bournemouth 97-4 (Currie 25*, Neal 25*) beat Portsmouth A 77 (Snookes 3-8) by 20 runs.
Bournemouth 124-4 (Neal 50*, Abbas 25*) beat Portsmouth B 100 by 24 runs.
Bournemouth 83-0 (Currie 25*, Neal 25*) beat Southampton A 82 (Currie 2-25, Snookes 1-14) by six wickets.
Bournemouth 152-0 (Currie 25*, Neal 25*, Charlie Davies 29*) beat Southampton B 101 by 51 runs.
 
 
 

​Basingstoke & North Hants vet Keith Harsham bowled an immaculate ten-over spell with the new ball to set up a four-wicket victory for England Seniors over their Australian counterparts in the opening Sixties One Day International at the Bradman Oval in Bowral.
The May's Bounty all-rounder returned a miserly 2-15, trapping top order pair Mark Gaskell and Wayne Broad before the Australians were contained to 152-7 off their 50 overs.
England got home with nine balls to spare, Harsham seeing the tourists across the line with an unbeaten 11 after the tourists had wobbled at 123-6, still needing 30 to win when he came to the crease.
Interestingly, neither side bowled a wide or a no-ball in the entire match.

Hampshire will return to the Isle of Wight’s county ground at Newclose in a Royal London Cup 50-over match against Lancashire on Sunday August 9.
It follows this year’s successful County Championship match against Nottinghamshire in May, which Hampshire won handsomely. 
The one-day match, Hampshire's last in the group qualifying stage, will start at either 1045 or 1100 and coincides with the start of the Cowes Week yachting regatta.
Hampshire reached this year’s Lord’s final, where they were beaten by Kent, whom they will host at the Ageas Bowl in the opening round of County Championship matches, beginning on Sunday 19 April, before then travelling to Taunton to face Somerset on Saturday 25 April. 
Next year’s Vitality Blast competition will begin earlier than previous seasons with Hampshire’s quest to reach a record-breaking eighth T20 Finals Day beginning on Friday 29 May against Sussex Sharks. 
Kent Spitfires will be Hampshire’s hosts for the first away contest in the competition on Sunday 31 May. Nine fixtures will be played in total across June before the final three South Group fixtures arrive in July whilst T20 Finals Day will be held at Edgbaston on Saturday 5 September.
Following an impressive 50-over title defence in 2019, Hampshire will start the Royal London Cup campaign later this year, with the competition curtain-raiser seeing Worcestershire Rapids visit the Ageas Bowl for the first time in the competition since 2014, on Sunday 19 July.  
In a change to the group structure for 2020, next summer’s List A competition will no longer be divided into two divisions geographically with teams instead playing a selection of counties from across the country.
The Hundred will get underway for the first time in 2020 with the first men’s match scheduled for Friday 17 July. 
The Ageas Bowl-based Southern Brave are one of eight teams featuring in the competition, with their first home match taking place on Wednesday 22 July against Manchester Originals, one of five fixtures (four men’s, one women’s) to be hosted at the venue. 

​The Hampshire Association of Cricket Officials will be running a number of training courses for Umpires over the coming winter, the first of which will be at the Ageas Bowl on Sunday 12 January 2020.
Courses last one full day and will cost £30. 
Anyone interested in attending this course can register using the following link http://booking.ecb.co.uk/d/9hqz6f 

Annual accounts posted on the ECB Southern Premier League website, to be presented at tonight’s AGM being held at Totton & Eling, reveal the League suffered a financial loss in excess of £9,500 over the past accounting year.
Clubs will be told that the SPL’s balances have dwindled to £49,005, primarily due to the loss of two main sponsors, Southern Electric and more recently British Gas plc.
The absence of a significant commercial sponsor – only £2,500 was received in 2019 and £5,000 (2018) compared with £21,000 in each of the two previous years – means that the Development Fund utilized by clubs for ground improvements and the like is not being presently funded.
Furthermore, the League’s presentation dinner has run at a loss for three of the past four years, with shortfalls of £521 and £716 on two of the functions.
The ECB’s contribution for Premier Division cricket has remained at £10,800 for the past eight years, with the SPL itself receiving £6,765.

The ten Southern Premier League Division 1 clubs could be dressing up in their pyjama coloured kit and playing ‘white ball’ 50-over cricket next summer.
The clubs are being asked at Thursday’s AGM whether they want to play either half or the full 18-week programme with a white ball, as opposed to the traditional red Dukes version.
Alternatively, they could decide to stay with red ball cricket.
The clubs in SPL1 in 2020 are Andover, Basingstoke & North Hants, Calmore Sports, New Milton, Portsmouth, Rowledge, Sarisbury Athletic, Sparsholt, and promoted duo St Cross Symondians II and Totton & Eling.
'White ball' cricket was introduced into the ECB Premier Division several seasons ago and has proved popular with the players, especially the batsmen !

Bashley (Rydal) left-arm pace bowler Bradley Currie has been named Southern Premier League 'Young Cricketer of the Year' after his 42 wicket haul helped the all-conquering New Forest club lift the ECB Premier Division title for the first time.
The 21-year old, who took 98 wickets in all senior cricket this summer, captured almost half his wickets in June, achieving a 6-14 haul at then leaders Lymington and 6-18 against Bournemouth two weeks later. He is the 39th winner of the John Millett Memorial Trophy.
Currie, pictured in action at Lymington by Terry Nash, said: "I'm just happy all the hard work from last winter paid off and getting the Young Cricketer award is a reward for all the hard yards I put in during the close season.
He regularly opened the bowling in Minor Counties Championship cricket for Dorset, who have earned a place in the top level of the new look National Counties CA Championship in 2020.
To cap a fine month for the Currie family, sibling brother Scott (who is on Hampshire's books) has been picked for England's Under-19 trip to the West Indies next month.

Hampshire League cricketers have boosted the Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal to the tune of almost £140 following a 'fines session' at the past weekend's County and Women's Division presentation awards dinner at the Ageas Bowl.
League chairman Denis Emery explained: 'Basically, we fine everyone £1 who turns up at the dinner without wearing a poppy - and we donate the proceedings to the RBL.
'It's a bit of fun on the night everyone goes home with their poppy having donated to such a wonderful cause.
'The first of our award dinners is always at Remembrance Weekend, so we are able to make a donation every year at this time.'
Mike Homer, Poppy Appeal of the Fareham Branch of the Royal British Legion, is pictured having received the Hampshire Cricket League's donation.

​Royal Navy and United Services cricket in the Portsmouth area has been saddened by the recent passing of Captain Derek Oakley RN MBE, aged 92 years.
Derek [left] was an incredible man of many parts, mainly in his 42-years where he served with distinction with the Royal Marines. A batsman/wicketkeeper, he represented the Royal Navy and Combined Services and, alongside cricket at Burnaby Road, played for his home town club Hayling Island.  He joined XL Club in 1969 and was chairman of the South District for some time and probably set a record of scoring a 50 every three matches. Remarkable consistency.  
He produced an 180,000 word memoir about his career which included him being in command of the first landing craft which started the Suez invasion on November 6, 1956 which was aborted when the US failed to support the operation, being an aide de camp to Lord Mountbatten, a guard of honour at the funeral of Winston Churchill, an officer during the Malaysian Emergency in 1950-1, the Brunei revolt (1962) and Sarawak (1963-6). He wore six medals and one was the MBE. He wrote six books including two about the Royal Marines.
Rear Admiral Roger Moylan-Jones said “He was known never to go anywhere without his whites and cricket bat in the back of his car and on business, it always seemed to coincide with cricket match somewhere. He played so much cricket, we used to joke that by early June, he’d scored 1,000 runs.”    ​Brian Scovell.

Bashley (Rydal) have won the ECB Southern Premier League's 'Ground of the Year' for the third time in the past four seasons and for a sixth time overall.
Their groundstaff are pictured on the roller proudly displaying the George Winkles Memorial Trophy they first won in 2001, again in 2002, and on three more recent occasions in 2016, 2017 and again this season.
Winning the Ground Award was the icing on the cake for the well run New Forest club, whose first three teams all carried off their respective league championships.  The 1st XI were ECB Premier Division winners, the second team topped Premier Division 3, and the thirds the Hampshire League County Division 3 South title.
Calmore Sports won the Paul Thompson Trophy for the most improved SPL ground.

ALTON AWARD WINNERS

​Ryan Covey climaxed his debut season at Alton by being named 1st XI and Player’s Player of the Year.
The season after playing for Liphook & Ripsley in the Village Cup final on the hallowed turf of Lord’s, he marked his first summer with the Brewers by scoring 437 Southern Premier League runs alongside capturing 13 wickets.  He also made his maiden SPL century (in a successful August run chase against Havant), having been run out for 99 at Bournemouth earlier in the summer.
Scott Myers, with 558 league runs out of an aggregate 807 (seven half-centuries), won the 1st XI batting prize, with Mike Salmon named 2nd XI Player of the Year.

​Bournemouth leg-spinner Jeremy Warner has made an early impact in Melbourne’s South East CA by taking five wickets in only his third bowling spell for his adopted Australian club East Sandringham.
He took 5-51 by the end of a lengthy 28-over stint as East Sandringham beat West Bentleigh (191) by eight wickets to halt a stuttering two-match losing start to their defence of the Longmuir Shield, which they won last winter.
Warner has also been in handy form with the bat, scoring 25 in an opening day defeat by Elwood.
Bournemouth saw little of Warner last season, the Swanage-raised leggie spending the opening half of the season with Castle Eden in the ECB North East Premier League, before graduating from Durham University.  He took 15 wickets in three separate bowls for Castle Eden, but managed only three SPL games for Bournemouth, taking five wickets, including 3-27 in the win over South Wilts.
South Wilts all-rounder Will Harries was Parkdale’s match winner in the dramatic one-wicket Southern Bayside Championship victory over South Caufield, who looked favourites to defend their 175 when Parkdale dropped to 159-9.  Enter Harries to hit an unbeaten 17 and win the game for Parkdale …

​Three members of the Bashley (Rydal) side that lifted the championship for the first time have been named in the ECB Southern Premier Division Team of the Year.
Skipper Michael Porter, leading run scorer Tom Friend and left-arm seam bowler Brad Currie are chosen alongside Str Cross Symondians trio Harry Came, Max Curtis and South African Marvin Williams.
Fellow Cape cricketer Hilio De Abreu, who took 30 wickets alongside his 678- run glut, shares the all-rounder spot with South Wilts’ James Hayward, whose left-arm guile accounted for 21 unsuspecting victims.
Lead wicket taker Matt Metcalfe, Brad Curie and Marvin Williams form a formidable front line attack, with South Wilts’ skipper Tom Morton taking the gloves and his regular opening batting slot.

South African Cameron Delport, who played in Hampshire’s 2007 ECB Under-17 County Championship winning side while he was in the Sixth Form at Portsmouth Grammar School, has been snapped up by Birmingham Phoenix. [The defeated Durham side at Hove included one Ben Stokes].
Derbyshire’s Wayne Madsen, who has played hockey locally for Fareham, joins the Manchester Originals franchise. 

Sarisbury Athletic brothers Josh Hill (left) and sibling Sam (right) have been named in the 2019 Village Cup Team of the Year following a public vote by The Cricketer magazine, organisers of the competition.
The pair helped Sarisbury reach the semi-finals, where they were beaten by Hertfordshire club Reed, who went on to lift the trophy for a third time in ten years at Lord's in September.
Josh Hill smashed an unbeaten 203 in the second round defeat of Bramshaw and later score a crucial 101 as Sarisbury Athletic knocked out WEPL side North Perrott in the quarter finals.
He made a total of 453 runs in the Village Cup, while left-arm spinner Sam took 16 wickets, including a 5-10 return against 2018 Lord's finalists Liphook & Ripsley in the Hampshire county final.

Sparsholt skipper Jeremy Frith can look back on another terrific season, topping the Southern Premier League Division 1 batting charts, finishing with the second highest number of wickets – and leading the Winchester club into the runners-up spot behind champions Hook & Newnham Basics.
No wonder he was an automatic choice for the SPL1 Team of the Year which, not surprisingly, contains four members of the champion club, led by Josh Buckingham.
Hook bowling team-mates Aniket Divecha, Martyn James and Jack Murrell were also named.
Selectors were spoiled for choice for wicketkeepers, with Sam O’Brien’s 505 runs tally for Sparsholt getting the Australian into the side, but into the field.  Andover teen Alex Ayers made 493 runs in nine knocks, one innings short of the qualifying criteria.
Calmore Sports pair Ben Johns, whose 651 runs contained two centuries, and Mark Lavelle, with an economic 33 victims at a miserly 2.78, were also selected.
Overall, the 11 players picked came from four clubs, Ben Duggan and Fraser Hay from Portsmouth.
Premier Division 1 Team of the Year –
Ben Duggan (Portsmouth): 590 runs
Ben Johns (Calmore Sports): 651 runs
Jeremy Frith (Sparsholt): 670 runs and 37 wickets
Fraser Hay (Portsmouth): 651 runs and 41 wickets
Sam O’Brien (Sparsholt): 505 runs and 16 dismissals
+ Josh Buckingham (Hook & Newnham Basics): 472 runs and 34 dismissals
David Banks (Sparsholt): 635 runs and 16 wickets
Mark Lavelle (Calmore Sports): 33 wickets
Jack Murrell (Hook & Newnham Basics): 32 wickets
Martyn James (Hook & Newnham Basics): 29 wickets
Aniket Divecha (Hook & Newnham Basics): 32 wickets

Veteran Basingstoke & North Hants all-rounder Keith Harsham has been chosen to represent England Over Sixties on an upcoming 14-match tour to Australia, which will include three One Day International 50-over 'Ashes' matches.
Harsham, who fired Hampshire Seniors to the ECB 50-plus County Championship quarter-finals with a breathtaking 98* against Berkshire this summer, will play a key all-rounder role for England with his hard middle-order hitting and seam bowling.
He will certainly need to keep fit on an exhausting 31-day trip, in which the England team will play in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, on the Gold Coast, and Northern New South Wales, Queensland, Sydney, and Tasmania.
"There are plenty of long coach journeys and a few internal flights, but the itinerary is superb, with seven warm-up games - the first against New Zealand - before we play Australia in three ODIs," Harsham smiled.
