Match Report Date - 26/04/09 Oppo – Middlesex Tamil Sports and Social Club (h) Type – 40 Overs Report by Dave Revell. The O's were totally Tamiliated by a team using this fixture as a practice match for the start of their league season. Right from the off the MTSSc batsmen set about the O's bowling. Only Mulholland and Richardson showing some respectful figures. The MTSSC team making 304-6 off 40 overs. In reply Glenn Evans went for 0 off a 7 ball over. This brought Kane to the crease and he batted well to make 47 off some very good bowling. That and Mulholland's 53 not out, ensured the o's made 163 for 4. Best part of the game was Coops being whacked on the ankle last ball of the 39th over and dancing in pain around his stumps before collapsing in a heap and having to be carried off the pitch on a stretcher with splints on his leg and sitting in the dressing room with a bag of frozen chips on his ankle for 2 hours, which annoyed the rest of the team as they had nothing to eat in the bar afterwards,
