Victory denied by the elements and ...
Denied by the rain but also by some mismanagement and unnecessary bloody mindednes by the usually very friendly catering staff who did not have tea ready resulting in a fifty minute break.
With the exception of Milne and Berry the Buccaneers batsmen were no match for Nomads bowling, the pick of which was young Mark Firth slow left arm with a fourfer.
On resumption Nomads batsmen struggled against some good bowling losing 6 for 113. However Firth and Arora built a partnership which was worth 49 when play ended early because of steady rain. Nomads were but 11 short of victory with ample overs remaining. The Kitchen staff were not the toast of the evening!.
