Wimbledon United v Clapham Nomads - 6/5/18

FULL REPORT TO FOLLOW.

Wimbledon United 166 all out from approx. 38 overs

Nomads top bowler was KK with 4 for 20something

Clapham Nomads passed the total for the loss of 4 wickets with about 8 overs remaining

Top scorer was Hasan with 40 not out.  Responsible and elegant batting

Riaz made approx. 38. Several big hits.

Zia was not out for something in the 30s - he hit some enormous sixes. He almost hit it over the trees; the ball just clipped the top branch on its way out of the ground.

Emil not only opened the batting and made 8 out of an opening stand of 41 with Darwin, but also took an incredible one-handed catch as Square Leg.  I compared this to Andrew's one-handed catch from 2000 and John said; "Yeah, well they've both got big fleshy palms."

Zia engineered a magical run out at a crucial stage by knocking out the only stump he could see - from 20 yards back.

A great win for Nomads by 6 wickets.

Nomads' team - Darwin, Emil (capt), Javed, Hasan, Riaz, Zia, KK, Sami, Abbas, Nick, John (wkt)

Man of the Match - Zia
Fielder of the Day - Emil
