Clapham Nomads v Burgh Heath - 2/8/15

Nomads lost a gruelling, run-packed match by 52 against Burgh Heath at Raynes Park on Sunday.

The visitors completely dominated early on with their openers racking up a 1st wicket stand of over 150.  Nomads came right back into it with 9 wickets in the last 15 overs but never really pegged back the scoreboard completely and the Surrey side closed on a daunting 251 for 9 off 35 overs.

Nomads, led by Mark Bradshaw with 47 and Riaz with (?) his best-ever Nomads score of 57 - an exhilarating innings made a very decent fist of the reply and were 157 for 2 at one stage and, shortly after this, needed around 7.5 an over with a fair bit of batting to come.  However, the fading light, less than brilliant batting late on and an astonishing spell of 5-0-17-7 (possible the best figures recorded against the Nomads) from Off-Spinner Hasan reduced us to 198 all out

Full report to follow.
