Exiles suffered their second defeat of the 2025 season, losing by 66 runs at Morden CC on Sunday.

Exiles unusually lost a toss and were fielding first and found wickets hard to achieve as Morden built steadily with two of their top four passing fifty. A late 4 wicket blast by Nadeem (4 for 33) kept the home sides total in check as they finished on 226 for 7 from their 40 overs.

Exiles reply started off okay with contributions from most of the top order with Hasan top scoring with 37, but were never on top, best positioned at 73 for 2 and 103 for 3 and ultimately the final 5 wickets were lost for 24 as Exiles subsided to 160 all out.

A tough match against lately arranged new opposition. Kings Road at Dundonald Rec next Sunday.
