Ryan Scott - sidelined by injury
​Lymington have been hit by a triple blow ahead of the visit of ECB Southern Premier Division champions South Wilts to the town’s Sports Ground tomorrow, 1230.
Gareth Berg is enjoying a Northants run fest against county champions Warwickshire at Edgbaston, opener Conor Moors, who made 88 in the Bashley (Rydal) tie, is working, while all-rounder Ryan Scott has undergone surgery after sustaining a groin injury at the BCG.
Beaten by five wickets by St Cross Symondians last week, South Wilts are boosted by the return of hard hitting left-hand all-rounder Ben Huntley and give a debut to little known Indian left-arm spinner Aayan Sen, from Mumbai.
Lymington: Crabb, Rogers, Wheble, Royan, Hartshorn, Patel, Cox, Cowley, Layman, K Moors, Morgan.
South Wilts: Morton, Stearman, Rowe, Draper, Hayward, Godsal, Sen, Huntley, Grant, Croom, Burton.
With Ed Ellis and Brad Taylor missing, Tom Foyle skippers St Cross Symondians against Totton & Eling at the Green Jackets ground.
Hampshire’s Fletcha Middleton is absent playing against Sri Lanka DP, so Harry Stephensomes in for Totton, who give a debut to spinner Joe Bracey.
St Cross Symondians: T Foyle, Foster, Trussler, Gwynn, Bransgrove, H Foyle, Beetham, Hawkesworth, Barrett, Beer, Haworth.
Totton & Eling: Sam Bracey, James Taylor, Bothwell Chapungu, Toby Green, Connor Griffiths, Harry Stephens, Joe Bracey, Bright Mugochi, Jaidel Richardson, Ethan Taylor, Tom Varney.

Similarly, Bashley (Rydal) must do without Tom Prest at Hook & Newnham Basics, where Ben Francis will open after his 93 in the second team against Fawley last week.
Matt Love returns for Hook, who prefer Will Gardner to Liam Doran in the spin department.
Hook & Newnham Basics: Lockwood, Love, Robson, Buckingham M, Warner, Buckingham J, Moore, Murrell, Simpson, Gardner, Divechi.
Hampshire Academy give an opportunity to Lord Wandsworth College batsman Sam Ruffell against Bournemouth on the Ageas Bowl Nursery Ground.
Nick Park is due to bolster Bournemouth’s flaky top order, but left-arm spinner Robbie Pack misses a game due to his wedding. Teenager Connor Smith is his replacement.
Academy: Tomlinson, Cheater, Wright, D Wood, Ruffell, Fairfax-Ross, Baker, Martin, Pritchard, Cordery, Spink.
Havant have slapped a one-match ban on batting all-rounder Harry Gadd following last weekend’s astonishing defeat by the Hampshire Academy.  They host Burridge, who are strengthened by Will Donald’s return, but are without teenage wicketkeeper Nathan Schultz, who has made a brief return to Cape Town for a school dance.  
Havant: Walker, Whitfield, Hopson, S Ransley, Stone, Metzger, Hindley, Reynolds, Ward, Jerry, F Gadd.
Burridge: Shu Chowdhury , Joe Collings-Wells, James Hughes, Hilio De Abreu, Will Donald, Chris Blake, Charlie Creal, Daniel Stancliffe, Ollie Creal, Mo Abbas, Sullivan White.
Richard Warner hit a match defining 88 in Portsmouth’s impressive 151-run win at Sparsholt last week, but sits out tomorrow’s Southern Premier Division 1 match against Liphook & Ripsley at St Helen’s, Southsea with a broken toe.
With Jack Marston and James Christian also absent, Portsmouth will need President’s son Matt Shaw to take a lead role alongside skipper Ben Duggan.  Liphook took a 59-run beating from Rowledge in their opening match.
Portsmouth: Duggan, Shaw, Mitchell, Wimble, Daini, S Warner, Chakribarti, Woolf, Silva, McArdle, Rao.
Opening batsman Jonty Seeborn travels back from Exeter University and replaces Will Ryman who has returned to his studies in Durham.

Battered for 281 by Portsmouth last week, Sparsholt skipper David Banks will be anxious to win the toss and apply pressure on Ventnor at Steephill.
Sparsholt: Banks, Frith, Berrill, May, Doran, Sumner, Banks-Williams Oliver, Banks -Williams Joshua, Ley, Procter, Lovell.

Arguably the top match in SPL1 is between Sarisbury Athletic and Alton at Allotment Road, both sides having won their opening games.
Hampshire Women’s spinner Gemma Porter (left) makes her debut for the Brewers and is believed to be the fourth member of the county ladies team behind Katie George, Daniella Ransley and Emily Windsor to play in the SPL.
Sarisbury Athletic: J Hill, Smith, Grierson, Floyd, Rawlins, Feltham, Harris, Franklin, Wright, Degrussa, S Hill.
Alton: Harris, Gonella, MJ Heffernan, Myers, MP Heffernan, South, Blyghton, Crane, Walters, Porter, Appavoo. 
Left-hand opener Ben Johns will undergo a late fitness check on his injured groin ahead of Calmore Sports’ home match with New Milton.
Hambledon piled up 263-4 against Fair Oak last week but, even with Henry Glanfield back in the top order, may find scoring a tad more difficult against OTs & Romsey at the Romsey Sports Centre.
Hambledon: George Marshall, Daniel McGovern, Henry Glanfield, Matthew De Villiers, Chris Pratt, Spencer Leclercq, Mark Butcher, Curtis Dixon, George Harding, Shahryar Khan, Ben Harding
Andover will be looking to build on their 41-run win over OTs & Romsey when they travel to Hartley Wintney.
Andover: M Hooper, Knight, Adams, Souter, Smith, Ashman, Treagus, Jansen, Veettil, Ayers, Williams.
Fair Oak are unchanged against St Cross Symondians II, with skipper Gregor McKenzie elated with the form of new signing, Portsmouth University students Joe McNeeney, who has rattled off three successive fifties.
 “Joe has been a great addition to our side so far and has fitted in perfectly within the club and we are excited to see how he can further contribute throughout the season”.
Hook & Newnham Basics make enforced changes for the long ride to Bashley (Rydal) II, with Ben Allnut and Tom May unavailable.  James Balcombe is fit again.
Hook: Bruin, Willcock, Light, Franklin, Neville, Doran, Allnutt, Armstrong, Balcombe, Watts, O.May.
Waterlooville made a good start beating St Cross Symondians II last week but are without former Purbrook captain against Fawley at Rowlands Avenue.
Waterlooville: Birch D, Broadhurst G, Hillman S, Hudson J, Jackson C, Jackson T, McGregor J, Reynolds A, Robinson S, Shephard A.
No surprise Sway are unchanged for their SPL3 home bow against Purbrook – they thrashed Gosport Borough by 127 runs last week.
Sway: Noble, Prince, Crossley, Hall, Bernard, Steadman, Marshall, Grasham, Ramwell, How, Waller.
Likewise, Paultons made a winning start but are forced to make changes for the trip to Portsmouth & Southsea, with Tony Richman among the absentees.
