Some pretty good coverage from the ICC for the U19 CWC Asia Division 2 Qualifiers

https://www.icc-cricket.com/u19-world-cup/

Loving the video highlight packages. They've been doing quite a few of those for all these recent associate qualifying tournaments. It's great to see.

CHK posting up their own match reports for each game on their website too:

Under 19 Cricket World Cup ? Division 2 ? Asia - Match 1 - Hong Kong v China @ Prem Tinsulanonda International School - News - Media - Hong Kong Cricket
Under 19 Cricket World Cup ? Division 2 ? Asia - Match 2 - Hong Kong v Kuwait @ Gymkhana Sports Club - News - Media - Hong Kong Cricket

Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Hong Kong the 4 semi-finalists for the ICC U-19 CWC Asia Division 2 qualifiers.

HK play Oman, and Qatar play Kuwait. The two winners will make it to Asia Division 1, alongside Malaysia, Nepal, Singapore, UAE,

All four teams pretty evenly matched IMO. Should be an exciting Sunday. ICC coverage for the event has been pretty good.

Interesting to see that the final ended as a tie.

Czsarsport is pretty good

https://czarsportzauto.com/

website a bit clunky but FB/twitter output is good

Tim Cutler's website is worth checking out too.

Otherwise the best source of information just seems to be each Associate Nation's own website, news outlets and social media channels. ICC's website gives some decent coverage, and there are news outlets like Firstpost and Sport360 do put out a decent amount of content on Associate cricket.

This Czar website is not working properly (no pun intended)
Yes, it does come from so many different sources - we are working on bringing this all together with Emerging.Cricket - in the meantime though - if you are a Twitter person; I would suggest following these people/accounts for all Associate-related news:

Latest Emerging Cricket Podcast - this time on South Korea. Now on all your favourite podcast apps. Leading up to 2018 Asian Games Korea had full-time contracts for their men’s & women’s sides. When cricket was pulled from the 2018 event so was the funding and thus the players’ contracts. HK lost access to ~US$500k pa through its own sports institute with that decision, too.
