The Game:

The "friendly cricket" rules were in place with Phillip Traynor at the umpiring helm:  No LBW, first-ball Not Out, and bat all 40 overs, ensuring a fun-filled day for all.  Batting first, the President's XI somehow managed to put up 250 runs in 40 overs. Great contributions from Philip, Abbas, Yaser, and Richard. The Captain's bowlers divided all the wickets among themselves at a couple each.

The Captain's XI came too close for comfort in reply and ended their 40 overs with just 8 runs short of the target, thanks to great knocks by David, Noman, Farhad, Amir, and Jason.  The friendliest cliff-hanger of a game!
