Oli and Vic Steer Nomads to win
It is eight years since Nomads single win at Hambledon. This match saw Nomads win for the second time in sixteen encounters. The bowlers bowled well and the fielding was good including two run outs. For several years Spencer Le Clerq has been a thorn in our side and he threatened to rescue Hambledon this day. Coming in late he found a partner in young Alfie Hitchin and these two put on 71 runs taking the innings to respectability. Luckily for Nomads Spencer lost his touch in the final over missing five balls and being stumped off the fifth. So Hambledon were all out for 156 with Spencer contributing 70. After a very good Tea Nomads lost four wickets for 89 but then Vic Kandampully joined debutant Oli Thornley and these two steered Nomads to a six wicket win with a stand of 71. Oli top scored with 56*. In years gone Nomads batters, great and good, have taken the aerial route and been caught. This time no one was out caught. Several Nomads and a lot of Hambledon lingered on a warm summer’s evening with a fine sunset over an ale or two and then four dropped into the historic Bat and Ball to further mull over the day’s events. This year’s trips to deepest Hampshire have been most worthwhile with wins over Broadhalfpenny Brigands and Hambledon and draws at Hampshire Hogs and Old Wykehamists.
