HILTON'S winning sequence was brought to an end by Sawtry II in the Hunts League Division Five on Sunday.
Sawtry batted first with number three Ian Bonsall blasting 91 runs as the visitors made a good start.
However bowler Tuddy Frost ripped his way through the top order with superb figures of 5-23, limiting Sawtry to 200-9 from their 45 overs.
Hilton looked to have a chance of making the target but were let down by their batting.
Bonsall took out the top three batsmen cheaply before a good partnership between Arnie Leader (46) and Mark Darlow (49) steadied the ship.
The pair put on 96 between them but Sawtry skipper Hubbard returned with a magnificent spell in which he took six Hilton wickets for one run in just 29 balls.
The home side had no reply and were bowled out for 159, 41 runs short of their target.
