LONGPARISH put a dent in the promotion hopes of Petersfield last weekend as they picked up an impressive five wicket win.

Harry Martin picked up an early wicket but Petersfield batsman Simon Blanks dug in and ground out 46, before falling to the bowling of Alex Coetzee.

Coetzee, above, finished the match with career best figures of 6 for 39 as Petersfield were all out for 173.

The Longparish reply got off to a flyer with Michael Taplin smashing 60 from 32 balls while his all of his fellow batsmen reached double figures in an impressive five wicket win.
