Missed it ! Marc Campopiano has his off-stump knocked back by Luke Evans (Roy Honeybone)
South Wilts are back on top of the ECB British Gas Southern Premier Division table with three matches to go.
Hampshire all-rounder Ian Holland produced the stand-out performance as they replaced Lymington – surprisingly beaten by Andover - at the top with an eight-wicket revenge win at Burridge.
The victory took South Wilts ten points clear at the top ahead of Saturday’s Bemerton visit by New Milton – a match which coincides with Trevor Hayward’s lavish vice-president’s day lunch.
“New Milton is a hugely important one for us to win. Then it’s Havant – and that could be important ... very !” stressed skipper James Hibberd.
Holland, making only his fifth South Wilts appearance of the season, took 4-18 from a ten-over spell before hitting an unbeaten 32 to guide the Salisbury side home.
Reflecting on the game itself, Hibberd said: “it was a case of going there (Burridge) and getting the job done.”
“I won an important toss and our seamers bowled well on what, after the heavy midweek rain, was a predictably damp surface.
“Ian, Ryan Murray and Steve Warner all bowled nicely to get them out for 107 – a total we knocked off fairly comfortably as the pitch dried out and the conditions eased.”
Joe Collings-Wells (39) top scored for Burridge, while an unbroken stand of 69 beytween Holland (32) and Jack Mynott (29) eased South Wilts home.
* Holland hit form with the bat, scoring 159 on the opening day of Hampshire’s Second XI Championship match against Worcestershire on the Ageas Bowl Nursery Ground.
