Ord and Wood hustle Sparsholt to third successive defeat Mike Vimpany - 17 June 2001
Jeremy Ord took 6-33 and left-arm spinner Nick Wood 4-18 as Old Tauntonians & Romsey rushed Southern Electric Premier League Division 2 rivals, Sparsholt out for 81 to chalk up a 48-run victory. OTs made full use of their 35 overs, rattling up 172-7, with Max Smith scoring a run-a-ball 49 not out after Richard Rapley (25), Keith Trodd (22) and Ian Tulk (21) had got the innings off to a positive start. Malcolm Ball (3-39) and Will Mariner (3-48) took the bowling credits for Sparsholt, whose reply caved in around Tim Richings (35). With Jerry Frith and Rob Savage among a host of unavailable players, Sparsholt crumbled from 62-2 to 81 all out - the last eight wickets falling in 12 overs. No play was possible in the other four Premier Division 2 games. Premier 3 was a total washout. © SEPL
