Sparsholt players and supporters pictured with the Southern Premier Cricket League Division 2 championship trophy which they clinched with a comprehensive nine-wicket triumph over relegation threatened Tichborne Park.
With Dave Banks taking 5-26 and Stuart Taylor 3-24, they rushed Tichborne Park out for a meagre 72 before polishing off the target, with Lewis Mitchard (pictured) hitting 33 not out.
It was Sparsholt’s 13th successive win since the opening day of the season when Trojans beat them by two runs.
Skipper Jeremy Frith has led from the front all season and currently leads both the SPL2 batting and bowling.
He has scored 735 runs (Tichborne’s Tom Allam is second, with 699) and is the top wicket taker, with 28 victims, one more than team-mate Liam Doran and St Cross Symondians’ spinner Matt Perry-Lewis.
Tichborne Park, meanwhile, fear a second consecutive relegation.
Rock bottom of SPL1 last summer, Tichborne are effectively 13 points behind Totton & Eling in the log and must win both their last two games against Waterlooville and Langley Manor.
