17/7/2018

Trojans are rooted to the Southern Premier League Division 2 basement after a nine-wicket Stoneham Lane pasting from promotion chasing Waterlooville.
Shot out for 86 and comprehensively beaten inside 12 overs, Trojans are 18 points adrift of the nearest safety rung.
They fell from 34-0 to 86 all out – all ten wickets falling for 52 runs, with spinner Archie Reynolds (4-20) and former Gosport Borough seamer Conor Regan (3-25) doing the bulk of the damage.
Australian Alex Smith lashed nine fours and four sixes in a 35-ball 68 not out for the Ville.

Trojans troubles were enhanced with wins for Totton & Eling and Tichborne Park, the latter’s victory dumping Paultons into the mire.
Totton chased down Langley Manor’s modest 195 to win by four wickets at Southern Gardens.
The majority of the Manor’s top order made starts without going on, including Sam Thomson (30) and skipper Jack Budd (26), the innings falling away after double strikes by Sam Beer (4-33), left-arm spinner Ethan Taylor (3-31) and father James (2-42).
Steve Harris (46 not out) was left to paddle the canoe, with Dylan Hatton (22) offering the only late support.
Totton themselves were struggling at 56-4, but Owen Morris (49) and Ollie Perrin (40) steadied the ship before Billy Lighfoot (25) and Oli Thomas secured the victory at 196-6.

Martin Cheyney (100) and Tom Allam (87) plundered a 172-run opening partnership as Tichborne Park piled up 307-4 against visiting Paultons.
The pair breached the boundary rope 25 times, with Cheyney, left, (11 fours) scoring the only six in the stand.
Queenslander Ryan Brooks (47 not out) and Ben Allen (35) piled on the agony before Jake Bristow’s SPL best 6-32 sent Paultons tumbling from 62-1 to 128 all out, with Robbie Pike and Tony Richman each making 29, Andrew Denney earlier taking 3-49.
A seventh defeat in ten outings leaves Paultons (91) eight points adrift of Totton & Eling (99). The pair meet at Southern Gardens on Saturday week, July 28.
