​Sparsholt captured five middle-order Sarisbury Athletic wickets for 14 runs at one stage of their Southern Premier Division 1 match at the Norman Edwards ground.
But the visitors, having stumbled from a powerful 179-2 to 193-7, recovered to post 286 and win by 131 runs.  They dismissed Sparsholt for 155.
Left-hander Sam Floyd put Sparsholt’s bowlers to the sword, cracking 14 fours and two sixes in a run-a-ball 89 until Dan Sumner (2-38) bowled him.
Youngsters Tom Ley (3-35) and Ash Lovell (3-71) then carved through the Sarisbury middle-order, removing the dangerous Josh Hill (41) amid the five-wicket salvo.
But fourth placed Sarisbury bat deep and a boundary strewn 84-run eighth-wicket stand between Rob Franklin (52) and Jordan Wright (32) retrieved the situation

​Lacking any real confidence, Sparsholt dropped to 52-4 (Will Berrill 22), rallied through Callum Doran (who battled hard for his 50) and Sumner (25) - only to fall away again from 92-4 to 143 all out.  Left-arm spinner Sam Hill (3-35) and Jordan Wright (3-38) shared six of the wickets.
