​Radley College teen Rory Acheson-Gray hit a boundary off the first ball of the final over to secure a two-wicket win for St Cross Symondians over South Wilts, who remain in the bottom three of the ECB Southern Premier League.
St Cross had been asked to chase 246 for victory in the last of the initial batch of five 'white ball' 50-over matches and achieved their target in comfortable style.
A third win in five leaves St Cross in third place in the log but South Wilts in difficulty having won only once so far.
Batting continues to be South Wilts' problem.  Not once in their five limited overs matches have they managed to bat the full 50-overs though they did manage 49 overs at the Green Jackets Ground.

​Harry Broderick (41) and Archie Fairfax-Ross (25) nudged the South Wilts score past the 20-run mark before Michael Haworth's late spell of 4-55 sent wickets tumbling.
Fielding a powerful top seven, St Cross raced away through Greg McKenzie (33) and Felix Organ (49) and by the 12th over when the Hampshire all-rounder was dismissed they had 95 runs on the board.
Kamran Dhariwal (44), Ed Ellis (23) and Michael Howarth (29) kept the clock ticking before a three-wicket spell by James Degg (3-30) kept South Wilts interested, but they didn't quite have a sufficient number of runs to play with. Rory Acheson-Gray ended it with five balls to spare.​
