Suman Ganguly was left stranded and unbeaten on 99 as Liphook& Ripsley piled up 246-7 before beating Southern Premier League Division 1 hosts Hook & Newnham Basics by 51 runs at the KGV.
Liphook started well with an opening partnership of 70 between Rob Nicklin (34) and teen Gabe Broadhurst (48), but the middle order failed to take advantage.
Ganguly, who smashed three sixes and nine fours, repeatedly ran out of partners with only Sean Burton's invaluable late cameo of 12 ensuring his senior partner would be there at the finish.
Ganguly needed 16 of the last four balls of the innings to reach his ton. The first three went for 2, 6 and 6, but he could then manage only a single. Liphook 246-7. Harry Came and Richard Willcock each took two wickets for Hook.
Chaz Janczur (3-35) and George Neave (1-34) made early inroads into Hook's batting which was forced to be patient. Steadily, however, a partnership of 89 between Matt Love (60) and Nick Willcock (36) began to offer Hook the chance of what had seemed an unlikely victory. A lively spell of seam of 4-29 in 6.5 overs from Dan Wrenn decisively claimed the wickets of the dangerous Love and Willcock. He also took the last wicket to fall with Hook dismissed for 195 all out in the 45th over.
