Gosport Borough have signed the former Royal Navy and United Services all-rounder Mark Toogood, who will beef up their top order batting and seam bowling units.
Toogood goes straight into the Borough side against Purbrook, who have lost both their East 2/3 matches, including a crushing 202-run defeat by Portsmouth & Southsea last week.
Gosport Borough: L Harrop, O Creal, J Harris, C Pennicott, M Toogood, C Creal, C Stares, G Kitchin, J Richards, S Prathapasinghe, S, Creal.
Alex Shephard, Waterlooville’s match winner at Hambledon, remains in charge against Tichborne Park at Rowlands Avenue, as Sam Hillman is still in quarantine following his Spanish holiday.
Dan Birch broke a finger fielding at Ridge Meadow, his absence adding run scoring pressure on the shoulders of the promising Matt Shaw.
Waterlooville: Shephard, Hudson, Reynolds, Shaw, Charman, Goddard, Connolly, Verma, Silva, Knight, Cook.
Its a big weekend for Liphook & Ripsley, who host Hambledon in an East group match before Sunday’s National Village Cup West Sussex county final showdown with Findon, 1pm.
Liphook beat Waterlooville in their only East group match so far, but piled up 350 in last weekend's Village Cup win at Balcombe, where Jonathon Pryce and Grant Rouse made big scores.
Hambledon began impressively against Gosport Borough, but came unstuck in last weekend's derby defeat by Waterlooville. They bring in Rory Morris at Ripsley Park.
Hambledon: Le clercq, Chakrabarti, Glanfield, Pratt, Marshall, Willoughby, Barnard, Morris, Parvin, Pearce, Khan.
