Namibia batting first v Sri Lanka.

Consistent wickets seemed to keep Namibia in check for 14-15 overs.

The last 4 however have been a slog fest from Freylinck and Smit. Bowlers bowling pies.

68 from the last 5 overs.

A handy 163/7 should at least make it entertaining.

Great stuff from Namibia.

Of course this means the ICC will reduce the number of teams in the competition to make sure it can never happen again.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

UAE doos drops a sitter. If they go on to lose this now he will forever be nicknamed Herschelle.

Yaaaassssss

Fucking aye.

Go on Scotland, what a terrific result! Really good all round performance, great knock from Munsey, with a couple of hndy wee in ings to support it. Watt the pick of the bowlers and Leask and Wheal also excellent. Good catching and all round support in the field. Need to fire into the next two games now to make sure we get through to the next round. Would be very Scotland to win this game then not qualify...
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

ICC will definitely be re writing the rules now though.

West Indies have a couple of tricky games to come as well. Ireland definitely capable of beating them. Got no idea what state Zimbabwe are in tbh.

These results just give more and more evidence that the distinction between Full and Associate members is a lot of nonsense. Whole system needs looked at.

It won't be though. The ICC are more likely to change it so that these results are less likely.

Good contest this. If Raza is there at the 20th it'll be a very decent total.
