Hayward heroics blasts Andover into SEC Cup Final
Mike Vimpany - 15 July 2001
Jerry Hayward blitzed 26 runs off the final over against Havant at London Road and sent Andover soaring into their first Southern Electric Contracting Cup final.
The Andover captain smashed three sixes as he laid into the 23rd and final over, bowled by Havant's teenage Western Australian all-rounder Shawn Gillies.
Hayward's unbeaten 33, which complimented Marc Kavanagh's earlier 65, took Andover on to a powerful semi-final total of 176-6.
Havant gave chase, with Richard Hindley (60 not out), Andy Perry (25) and Gillies (46) taking their reply to 128-1 after 19 overs.
But Havant lost four wickets for 12 runs in a desperate last gasp bid for victory and finished 15 runs behind at 161-6, Sam Miller (2-20) bowling a tight spell.
They will play either Rowledge or Lymington in the SEC final at the Hampshire Rose Bowl on Wednesday August 1.
Lymington, without Australian Brian Clemow, Neil Trestrail and probably Glyn Treagus, expect to be captained by former Hampshire left-hander Jon Hardy in tomorrow's (TUES) second semi-final at Rowledge, 6pm.
Lymington : (from) Hardy, Peacock, Craft, Griffiths, Young, Molloy, Treagus, Allen, Carr, Phillips, Smith, Pain.
