The Exiles got the 2012 season off to a winning start with a 7 wicket win over Cypos.
An excellent all-round bowling and fielding performance restricted the opposition to 140 all out off the last ball of the 40th over – wickets were shared round – with Chris Plume (3 for 32) the pick.
Exiles response was masterminded – as ever – by Keith Roberts with 58 not out, as we won with 5 balls of the last over remaining.
Full details to follow in the match reports section.
Exiles first game of the 2012 season – scheduled to be away to Wimbledon Corinthians on Sunday May 6 – fell foul to the weather; next up is Cypos at Chiswick next Sunday – if the weather allows..

As part of the Exiles 20 year anniversary – which falls in 2012 – the Energy Exiles are planning an inter-club friendly match or tournament on the 15th September 2012 at one of their grounds in Merton (which will be advised in due course).
All past and present Exiles are invited to attend. The format of the day will not be decided until actual numbers attending are known nearer the time, but a barbecue is planned.
Hopefully this day will provide an entertaining day to reminisce on 20 years of colourful Exiles cricket!
