Miserly bowling proves to be the Nomads undoing

N

The Nomads came up against an attack determined to give nothing away. Bryant bowled straight through to record outstanding figures of 8-5-6-3, finishing with 5 maidens in a row. Even the normally fluent Moss found scoring difficult making 30 from 52 balls. A score of 60-5 at drinks did not offer much hope of setting a challenging total. Contributions from Hutton (19), Lloyd Taylor (15) and Rolfe (14*), aided by 25 extras left the final score at 127 all out, with 3 overs left. It did not look to be enough.

Moss and Heslington opened the bowling and both started with a maiden. Hopes soared. The next two overs saw 27 scored. Hopes dropped. The Nomads needed wickets, and lots of them, to stand any chance.  64-0 at the end of the 8th over was the nadir. The introduction of Lloyd Taylor made an immediate impact with a wicket in his first over. In the next over, Cartwright joined the party. Stanley rediscovered the lost art of catching as Asam departed for 57, off the bowling of Taylor. 

With wickets and overs to spare, it was always going to be difficult to apply enough pressure. Cartwight made an excellent catch off Hutton, who followed up by clean bowling the No 7. Alas, too little too late. Coftonians clinched victory with 20 overs to spare.
