Wimbledon United v Nomads - 28/6/09

Clapham Nomads beat Wimbledon United by 2 wickets in a closely-fought, high-scoring Conference game at Cottenham Park, SW20. Wimbledon notched approx 205 all out off approx 36 overs. Stand-out bowler was Hassan Khan who took a five wicket haul. Emil took 2 wickets, Amin also bowled well. For Nomads, Prasanth scored a 50 as did Jim Joyce. One Nomads player had to leave at tea for domestic reasons so when, with 7 wickets down, Emil joined Hassan at the crease there was only John Crossland still to come in and about 20 runs needed to win (overs weren't a problem.) These were achieved with Emil smiting a mighty 4 and Hassan completing his 50.
Man of the Match was obviously Hassan for achieving a rare double. Fielder of the Day was Jim Joyce.
Match stats and possibly a fuller report will follow.
In the meantime there are some match photos and there will be a match report on Wimbledon United's website http://wucc.org.uk/
For some reason, they think our club name is Clapham Bells. NL
