Seamer Lewis Mitchard, pictured, took a hat-trick only to finish on the losing Sparsholt side as Liphook & Ripsley clung on to a seven-run win in the National Village Cup first round at Locks Lane.
Mitchard (5-31) struck after Ryan Covey (64) and Rob Nicklin ( 37) had eased Liphook into a strong
took their first step in the 2018 National Village Cup at Sparsholt in a potentially strong position.
Harry Munt, who made 54 not out, watched on helplessly as the tall Mitchard had George Neave caught, bowled Dave Oliver and trapped teenager Jack Campbell leg before wicket to change the shape of the innings.
Three more wickets fell in the last three balls of the innings to leave Liphook 186 all out.
Sparsholt skipper Jeremy Frith hooked impressively and shared a second wicket partnership of 71 of 71 with Mitchard  (42).
A mini-collapsed occurred at 111-3 before Nick Doubell contributed a useful 31.
However, the Liphook seamers steadily worked through the Sparsholt middle and late order with Ryan Covey 3-38, George Neave 2-28 and Sean Burton 2-36.
Sparsholt were just seven runs adrift on 179 all out as Covey claimed the last wicket with two overs remaining.
