The boat journey itself was an exhilarating way to start the day, as we went south and passed through the straight where Atlantic met Caribbean.
And the beautiful volcanic island of Nevis came into view.
We arrived in good time and waited for our opposition to arrive, a side that had never lost to a touring side.
The side was selected and once again we lost the toss and found ourselves in the field on a searingly hot day.
After early wickets with the new ball by Tom Purwar and Dom Fraser it was left to Darsahn to take another 5 wickets and a good team performance meant we had just 71 runs to chase. Some good spin bowling however had Dulwich under pressure at 28-5, but Ali Neden and Peter MacCormack led the fight back and saw Dulwich home for their 5th win on tour with just 1 game left.
At the end of the game we had the chance to enjoy the wonderful volcanic water on the island....
Even Mr Greenaway found time to enjoy it's healing properties...
before we embarked on the beautiful boat journey back to St Kitts and had a chance to reflect on another successful day, with just one game remaining ....
Well done boys so far it sounds like you have been playing brilliantly well - beating sides never before beaten by t oruing teams as well! I hope you might have won the toss in the last game and get the chance to have a proper bat and show them what you can do, I look forward to hearing the final update.
