Sun 4 Sept Wimbledon Lost by 6 wkts
We 122/7 in 25 overs (Shanker 27, D.Behar 17, N.Nayar 17*, Raja 17,
Thom 3/14, Wright 2/15)
They 123/4 in 21.5 overs (Thompson 39*, Hunt 33, Eaves 20, Raja 2/19,
Amar 2/19)
A match blighted by rain, which arrived when we did and increased in intensity for the next two hours. Although our other match at HAC was abandoned,Wimbledon’s excellent facilities meant that we continued to hold out hope, and finally the clouds parted in time to allow a 25-overs a side game. Kensington ‘batted’, in the loosest sense of the word, and put up 122 in the allotted time. It was never going to be enough and despite good spells from Sunil and Ali Raja Wimbledon cruised home with overs and wickets in hand.
We hope for better weather next year.
