Tom Morton - back for South Wilts
Tom Morton is back in his favourite position this afternoon – opening the batting for South Wilts !
He wasn’t expected to play at all this season following surgery on a rugby related neck injury, but has recovered quicker than expected and had a run out for the club’s fourth team at Shrewton last weekend.
Today he’s back for South Wilts’ against Calmore Sports in the Southern Premier League Cup at Bemerton, 12.30.
Morton’s role will probably be restricted to that of batting as Ben Draper, despite an injured typing finger, will continue to captain the side and keep wicket.
South Wilts also give a first team debut to teenage off-spinner Tom Lewis, who took five wickets for the Salisbury club’s second team against Hythe & Dibden last weekend, and Millfield’s George Edwards.
South Wilts: Draper, Morton, Stearman, Mynott, Hayward, Rowe, Edwards, Warner, J Wade, Lewis, Burton.
Calmore Sports: Lavelle, Johns, Bailey, Newton, Fisher, Taylor, Rose, Woodhall, Blake, Wright, Lepervanche
The return of George Pardoe is one of three changes made by Bashley (Rydal), who host near neighbours New Milton at the BCG – the winners of which will wear the tag of undisputed Kings of the Forest following Lymington’s demise at Fernhill last week.
Teenage pace bowler Sam Crisp returns, while Jacob Gordon gets a call after impressing in the seconds.
New Milton’s Toby Edwards will be confined to a watching brief after suffering a knee injury in the win over Lymington.
Bashley (Rydal): Jacques, Turner, Walker, Porter, Fisher, Gordon, Pardoe, Digby, Clutterbuck, Currie, Crisp
New Milton: Watts, Golding, R Beck, L Beck, Griffiths, Loader, Hall, Humphrey, Gargaro, Mills, Baker.
Across the Forest and Lymington were given a double boost ahead of Bournemouth’s visit to the Sports Ground, where hard hitting opener Terry Crabb returns.
They also give a debut to Cheltenham raised Ollie Elliott, who made an impressive 80 for Lymington seconds last week.
Lymington: Royan, J Bailey, D Bailey, Tollerfield, Paxton, Scott, Schreuder, Smith, Robertson, Crabb, Elliott.
Bournemouth: N Park, Collins, Davies, Matthews, C Park, Nippard, Robinson, Hurley, Pack, Conway, Mixer.  
Andover’s match against Totton & Eling has been posted following yesterday’s Biblical storm which flooded the London Road ground.
The Hampshire Academy ring the changes for their (start delayed) visit to Burridge as four of their normal side, including the in-form Harry Broderick, are training with the Australian One Day squad at the Ageas Bowl.
Broderick, left-armer Josh Croom, James Trodd and Harry Petrie will all be bowling to Steve Smith & Co for the next week or so, giving academy boss Charlie Freeston the opportunity to blood some of the even younger members of his fledgling squad.
Burridge pace ace Oli Southon is also putting David Warner, as opposed to the Academy batsmen, through the mill.
Academy: Tomlinson, Prest, Mumford, Middleton, Wheeler, Metzger, Jackson, Kelly, Huntley, Khanna, Catherwood-Smith.
All-rounder Tom South is also with the Australians and misses Alton’s trip to East Premier leaders St Cross Symondians.  The start of a now 35-over match has been delayed until 1.20pm
Alton: Covey, Harris, Heffernan MP, Myers S, Wright, Gonella, Heffernan MJ, Myers J, Salmon, Scott, Paul.
Ollie Perkins, who will captain Havant in Monday’s Under-17 Cup final against Hook & Newnham Basics at May’s Bounty on Monday afternoon, will make his SL debut at Rowledge. 
Rowledge: B Wish, J Wish, Baker, Lloyd, Woodliffe, R Yates, E Martin, M Martin, Ryman, Sebborn, Swan.
Havant: Morgan, Hopson, Harry Gadd, Stone, Hindley, Perkins, Bulled, Taw, Freddie Gadd, Stares, Jerry.
Sarisbury Athletic give an opportunity to newcomer Elliott Smith, from Derbyshire, against Portsmouth at Allotment Road, where he is expected to open the batting with fit-again Sam Floyd.
