Olumide Akintokun
Captain
“Olu'tokun” made a relatively late acquaintance with cricket. Having never heard of the game, his first contact came in his second year at the University of Ibadan, after a muscle injury ended his hopes of making the 2002 NUGA swimming team. He fell in love with the game and made the cricket team for the same games, though he did not get a match. That disappointment spurred long hours in the nets. His hard work paid off with selection for the Oyo State team at the 19th National Sports Festival in Abuja in 2004, and an international call-up in 2005 to fly the Green-White-Green for his country.
