Sanil Babu got the team off to a flyer with fantastic shots, including a huge six to make 16 in the first 20 balls.

Wickets started to fall, but then captain Shaun Iddles and Luke McWhirter combined for a 35 run middle innings partnership.

It gave the team a solid 101 off its 20 overs.

Sam Breed tore the heart out of the Exies Eagles side with the ball, taking 3/6 off three overs.

Andy McIntyre (3/10) and Iddles (2/22) were also important contributors to bowl Exies out for 66.

Jacob Breed had an unbeaten 101 not out in Friday's night's game.

The club congratulates Jacob Breed for an amazing innings of 101* off 82 balls on Friday night in the Griffith District Cricket Association competition.

Mr Consistent has been in fantastic form for a few seasons, and it was great to see him raise the bat for a century.

Before play was abandoned due to a technical issue with the lights, the Nomads scored 7/180 against the Ex-Servicemen’s Diggers off 35 overs.

The Diggers got through five overs, scoring 27, before the game was stopped.
