Havant, three points ahead of BAT Sports in the Southern Electric ECB Premier League leadership chase, will be at maximum strength as they bid to further their ambitions at local and national level.

The Premier Division 1 champions face erratic Liphook & Ripsley tomorrow, and then leave straight afterwards for an ECB Club Championship showdown with 1999 Lord's finalists, Bath.

Paul Gover names a full strength team to take on Liphook but, due to competition regulations, has to leave Australian teenager Shawn Gillies out of the sixth-round tie at Bath.

"It's a key weekend for us, but I believe we've got a good enough side to beat Bath and go through to the quarter-finals of the national," says skipper Paul Gover.

"This side is probably the best Havant have ever put into the field. We bat in depth - and the top order is in really good nick - and have a very well balanced bowling attack."

Havant ought to extend their league ambitions against Liphook, but West of England Premier League Bath will be a far tougher nut to crack.

"They've won their league three years in a row and went to Lord's a couple of years ago," Gover explained.

"But we are a very good side and, given a rub of the green on the day, can win at North Parade."

Second placed BAT Sports aim for a fifth all-day Premier League win against inconsistent South Wilts at Southern Gardens.

Dave Banks again expects to name a full strength side, but is uncertain what to expect from South Wilts.

"They gave Havant a real run for their money a fortnight ago, but then collapsed and lost badly to Calmore last week," he said.

Calmore Sports host Burridge, who piled up 301-5 against Andover at Botley Road last week.

Australian all-rounder Glen Motchall, with 12 wickets in his last two games, spearheads the Calmore attack.

Hampshire Under-17 captain Ed Brogan gets the wicketkeeping position, while Neil Cunningham expects to return to the Burridge top order after a hand injury.

Martin Miller misses the Bournemouth-Bashley (Rydal) derby, but youngsters Chris Park and Tom Webley return for the Chapel Gate clash.

Kevin Nash (hamstring) looks set for a lengthy stay on the Bashley sidelines after breaking down in last Friday's New Forest cup final win over Hythe & Dibden. Ross Grierson is also missing.

Wiley left-arm spinner Andy Hooper gets the nod for Andover against Premier strugglers Hungerford, who are stranded at the bottom.

If Hungerford - Southern League champions only two years ago - lose at London Road, they will almost certainly be relegated.
