Innings 1

Wimbledon won the toss, and after some deliberation, opted to bowl. They have had the luxury of being tested over the season as both target-setters and target-chasers. Would the experience of successful chases in the last 2 rounds pay off?

The first over set the tone for the entire Spencer innings - all action! There was rarely a dull ball in an innings that seemed to be set to "fast forward".

In pursuit of a lower-than-usual score, Wimbledon had one hand on the Indoor League trophy. However, as the evening progressed, and a little fatigue set in, every run appeared twice as difficult to come by - a low score being fiercely defended by an inspired Spencer bowling attack.

Early wickets caused nerves to jangle, before Eric Anand steadied the Wimbledon ship. But breakthroughs never looked far away.

This game - against all odds at halfway - went to the wire, Watch below to see how it ended!
