4th July 2026 Round Up. One’s and Two’s Draw. Fours Still searching!
Ones Move up to 4th after Horntye Draw. Sussex Premier League
Nav and the boys made that long trek west to Hastings to take on the team battling relegation. On a traditional batsman’s paradise under warm sunny conditions the hosts decided to bat. Spinners AOB 6 wickets and Nick 4 wickets made headline news as the Hastings middle order capitulated 7 for 50. Unfortunately, Man of the Match Captain Harry Scowen had already done the damage with a wonderful opening ton. Billings chipping in with a half century. At 206 for 2 Nomads were in a spot of bother.
In reply our overseas NG got a great start 39 but wickets fell quickly. At 95 for 4 the unthinkable might have been on the cards. However, Archie once again sorted things out with a 67 then Rudy Northcott (54 n.o.) held out for the 14 point draw. Nomads 216 for 7.
Is that a good point gained on the road or is it two points dropped? I will ask Nav later.
Twos Might Rue this one Come late August. Worthing somehow find a batting vibe. Div 2
Adam Takes 5!
Worthing came into the SCMG match gasping for air having scored just 290 in three inns nursing some bruising losses. However they found our square much to their liking as Ballamy, Watkins and Rebbetts all scored healthy runs in a score of 253 for 6 off 53. Adam Ibs was outstanding with the ball taking 5 wickets.
Two’s batting is starting to become an issue as we fell to 120 for 5 and 136 for 8. With Worthing crowding the bat Nomads clung on for a draw but a measly 8 points.
Guys that trap door is catching up with us. Our Twos need a lift!
Four Play well Again but Nurse 8th Loss of the Season. SCMG
Our Fours will win soon but will be sore today after a bruising encounter with Horsted Keynes. Our visitors chose to bat with the two openers Bacon and Dennis both going to 50s. Crowson also grabbed a 50 as the team made 278. Mal 3 for 47 and Jamie four for 50 the picks. But what is going on with extra’s in this club ? 61 offered!
JP scored 31 up top then Oscar 38 and Luke 42 gave sheen to 242 for 8.
Guys I am going to take a break next Saturday. Hopefully my absence will bring about something magical. Good luck.
