Exiles made it 1-1 in their recent double header against Streatham & Marlborough CC on Sunday, winning by 119 runs at Dundonald Rec.

Exiles batted first and lost a few early wickets before a fine 67 from debutant Manzar bolstered the score, supported by 34 from Hasan and a belligerent 33 not out from skipper-for-the-day KK. 210 for 7 seemed a decent score from the Exiles’ 40 overs.

Ansar (4 for 20) struck 4 times early in the Streatham reply and the match was as good as over. Wickets thereafter were shared round – with Naren taking a club record equalling 390th Exiles wicket – as Streatham were dismissed for 91.

Onwards to Kenley next week.
