SONNING CC Innings
Did not bat
Rain stopped play from 3.35pm.Lunch was taken from 1.30-2.20pm
The rain meant there was no Sonning innings and therefore Mike Wilkins did not bowl.Over the preceding five days he had bowled 102.5 overs taking 26 wickets for 241 runs. A Herculean achievement especially with his long run up.In his 'spare time Dr Wilkins is an Obstetrician.
This was the sixth successive day of cricket including the Sussex Tour and match at Ashtead. Four of this Nomads team were on tour as well.
