In damp and humid conditions the Exiles bowlers were hammered all over the place by the kamikaze Vishwa batsmen. No-one escaped punishment and the Exiles didn't help themselves by dropping several catches.
Facing a target in excess of 200, Keith Roberts and Mark Bradshaw opted for a safety first strategy, before Keith holed out for 20. In partnership with Dom Herrington (37no), Bradshaw made the game safe before edging behind for 48.
One or two wickets fell quickly before Nick Creak enlivened the game with some bold strokes as the Exiles easily secured the draw. Vishwa's very poor over rate counted against them as it gave them little opportunity to bowl out a strong Exiles batting line-up. Man of the match was top scorer, Mark Bradshaw.
