Longparish powered into next Monday's Winchester & District CA Tichborne Trophy semi-finals - and a juicy home tie with Fair Oak - with a 21-run victory over Bishops Waltham.
Will de Cani hit an unbeaten 50 (retired) for LP and, alongside Alex Coetzee (45*), was particularly brutal on Ross Bullard, whose 14th over batting 'power play' was smashed for 42 (sixes counting double), mainly into the adjoining field.
The LP total of 157-5 was beyond Bishops Waltham, who made 136-8 in reply, with Henry McGhee (28), Adam Wymms (25) and Don Quincy (22) top scoring.
In the other semi-final, Sparsholt will host Tichborne Park. The final is at St Cross Symondians later this month.
