The Mill Hill Village Cricket Club allrounder, who will soon be donning the white coat of a newly qualified doctor by weekday, spent the weekend in a different kind of whites — and promptly rewrote the script on what it means to be in form.

On Saturday, mere days after receiving his medical licence, Sadozai took to the field for the club’s 2nd XI and struck a blistering century — a relatively measured by his standards 100 off 104 deliveries — in a commanding 132-run demolition of Datchworth CC in the Hertfordshire Premier League Division 7 East. Six sixes punctuated a knock of composed aggression, setting the tone for an extraordinary 48 hours. (Scorecard here.)

If Saturday was clinical, Sunday was surgical.

Opening once again, this time for Mill Hill Village’s newly-formed Sunday 1st XI, Sadozai tore into the Friends United CC bowling attack with the confidence of a man entirely at peace with the bat. He compiled an astonishing 195 runs from just 120 balls, carving 24 fours and launching 12 sixes in a whirlwind display that lit up Burtonhole Lane. His efforts powered the Village to a colossal 358 for 6 in 40 overs — a total that proved 149 runs too many for the opposition. (Scorecard here.)

With that win, Mill Hill’s Sunday side cemented their place at the top of the table, undefeated in three matches and buoyed by the strength of their new recruits and returning members. It is the first time in a decade that the Village has entered a Sunday league side.

Speaking to millhillvillagecricketclub.co.uk, Sadozai said: “It feels unreal, honestly. Everything just clicked this weekend — timing, confidence, and a bit of luck too. I’ve never scored back-to-back tons on consecutive days before.

“I scored 184 on April 19, just a day before taking a major exam in Manchester. That innings gave me a real boost going into a very intense test.”

With 602 runs already to his name this season from just seven innings — including three centuries and an average north of 120 — Sadozai is arguably one of the most in-form recreational cricketers in Herts/Middlesex.

But he was quick to credit the team culture at Mill Hill Village for his exploits: “I attribute my early season form to the support, love and appreciation I’ve received from my teammates — especially 2nd XI captain Hamdard Jan Temori, as well as Mushtaq Ahmed, Bakhtiar Sahil and 4s skipper Ken Shakoor. They all keep pushing me to go one better.”
