Left-armer Tom Grant celebrated his fourth red ball 'five-fer' wicket return in five matches - but his efforts were in vain as rain washed out South Wilts' prospects of beating ECB Southern Premier Division rivals Totton & Eling.
Grant took 5-54 as Totton were dismissed for 159, but rain swept in off Salisbury Plain with South Wilts' 27 without loss after five overs.
The Shrewton diary farmer now has 27 league victims and, with the season at its halfway point, already has one more 'five-fer' return than 48-wicket Josh Croom achieved in his award winning 2022 summer.
Grant cut through Totton's middle-order leaving Billy Blyghton (46) and, after his dismissal, Josh May (35) to hold the innings together before Jack Mynott's off-spin ripped through the tail. He took 3-11. James Degg (20 not out) hit four boundaries as South Wilts hit 27-0 in reply before the rains came.
