Sparsholt drop 100% record to rampant Trojans - Division Two Review
Mike Vimpany - 3 June 2001
Sparsholt's unbeaten Premier Division 2 start ground to a halt with a nine-wicket defeat by Trojans at Stoneham Lane.
Against Trojans nagging seam attack they were pressed to reach 136-8 (Tim Richings 46) and, with a depleted bowling force, were unable to prevent Nigel le Bas (53) and Mario Mohammed (43) guiding the Stoneham club home.
Old Basing sent down a staggering 51 wides - and effectively bowled eight additional overs - as Hambledon rattled up 291-5 at Ridge Meadow.
Adrian Magrath (68) and Reg Norris (45) shared a century second-wicket partnership before Kelvan Finch (28), Matt Jones (27) and Alan Smith (26) put Hambledon out of sight.
Gary Shotton (3-23) and teenager left-armer Dan Anderton (3-51) shared the spoils as Old Basing reached 164-8 (Dale Summers 48 not out).
United Services are still searching for their first win, despite South African John Geoghegan cracking 90 before being run out against Cove at Burnaby Road.
The US total of 204-8 (Gary Hounsome 44) was easily bettered - Hampshire Under-19 left-hander Neil Randall hitting an unbeaten 64 to ease Cove towards a seven-wicket win.
Old Tauntonians collapsed to 107 all out after Easton & Martyr Worthy had notched 198-5.
