Alex Senneck finished with Premier League best figures of 7-42 as South Wilts took five wickets off the last 22 balls without a run conceded, to snatch a 115-run win over Hursley Park at The Quarters.
"It was an unbelievable finish," said South Wilts skipper Rob Wade. "It was such a good track that it looked impossible to bowl a side out, but Alex had other ideas and bowled superbly."
A 157-run fourth-wicket partnership by James Hayward (88) and Jo Cranch (71) put the game beyond Hursley.
"We were 46-3 at one stage in the morning, but James batted beautifully and, but for a crazy run-out, would have scored a century," Wade said.
Wade added 29 after Stu Wilson (5-55) had made his mark.
Prospects of Hursley Park reaching South Wilts' 261 disappeared by 29-3 Senneck, above, removing Adie Aymes and Jimmy Taylor. Safety first was the Hursley game plan thereafter Paul Marks (38), Paul Edwards (35) and James Kennedy (42) seeing them to 146-5.
"I think we'd all settled for a draw at that time except Alex !" Wade said.
The former Army and Combined Services player removed Kennedy and, after Hayward's left-arm spin accounted for Andy Marks, Senneck blew the lower order away.
