Hampshire West Division Two
ANOTHER blistering innings from Jason Cooper set up Godshill's massive 208 run victory over BAE.
Sharing in stands of 75 for the third wicket with Chris Chatwin, 37, and 79 for the fourth with Alan Pollard, 31, Cooper smashed twenty fours in his 115-ball 136 as Godshill amassed 278-6.
Nine-man BAE lasted just 22.3 overs as they tumbled to 70 all out with only Phil Storr, 21, in touch against Clive Beeley, 3-25, and Pollard, 3-36.
Eastleigh and Otterbourne got a tremendous start against Wood-green.
Openers Mike Hurst, 62, and Steve Ward, 69, put on 134 off 24 overs before they were both out in quick succession.
The last 15 overs of the innings produced 98 runs with 50 coming off the last four overs as Les Baldwin, 71 not out, and Steve Paul, 29 not out, shared in an unbeaten third wicket stand which took them to 245-2.
With memories of achieving their huge chasing target the previous week fresh in their minds, the Woodgreen batsmen were soon into their stride.
They lost an early wicket before the in-form Steve Richards, 67, put on 89 for the second wicket with Dave Naish, 41, and 43 for the third with Tom Venn, 43.
Jason Holderness, 23, and Andy Parker, 42 off 27 balls, kept the runs flowing and ten were needed off the last over.
Parker hit a six but was then caught and it was left to Jason Naish to hit a four to win the match with one wicket and one ball to spare.
Mark Day claimed 6-35 as Ringwood restricted Ordnance Survey to 146-8 with only John Clark, 51, in form.
Opener Mark Brockway made 40 and then Graham Bowater, 43 not out, and Day, 32 not out, shared in an unbeaten fourth wicket stand.
They won by seven wickets off 25.5 overs.
Alderholt were indebted to Mike Jackson, 49 not out, Michael Park, 27, Ian Newman, 27, Marcus Locock, 20, and Tom Morris, 18, for their 201-9 against Exbury.
Tony Shelley, 4-39, and Dave Storey, 3-59, were the wicket takers.
