  • 363 - Summer 2017
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER No. 363 - SUMMER 2017 THE SOCIETY’S DAY AT THE CRICKET SATURDAY 3 JUNE 2017 Society members enjoyed another splendid day at the cricket on 3 June. Some members renewed acquaintances from the inaugural event in 2016; new friends were also made as the conversation flowed around the tables at breakfast, lunch and tea. As with last year, the occasion coincided with eventual Hampshire victories. In 2016, the county overcame Nottinghamshire to record their first win of the season. Their only other win in the Championship last year was also against the same opponents at Trent Bridge in mid-August. On the day itself, members watched Jimmy Adams move from his overnight 104 to 166, scoring prolifically on the leg-side, and Sean Ervine complete the second double century (203) of his career. The pair added 367 for the third wicket, a partnership for that wicket exceeded for Hampshire only by the Michael Carberry/Neil Mckenzie epic of 523 against Yorkshire at the Ageas Bowl in 2011. Also noteworthy was the performance of the young Warwickshire off-spin bowler Sukhjot (Sunny) Singh, who bowled 50 overs and finished with figures of six for 144 on only his second Championship appearance. Is he one for the future? Many thought Hampshire had batted too slowly in progressing from their overnight 294 for three to 515 all out. However, they quickly made up for any potentially lost time by reducing Warwickshire to 49 for six by the close. The post-tea session was therefore the pivotal session of the match when debutant Mark Salisbury claimed two wickets, as did the exciting Mason Crane; Australian raised, Wisconsin-born Ian Holland also took a wicket; Michael Carberry contributed in the field with a superb run out.
