What the **** is Gaznavi playing for? Dude is just there because he’s the president’s son. ****. Can’t believe Rohan sat out for him.

Jersey and Canada winning are such huge results for HK

HK could still somehow finish in the Top 4 if they beat all three of Canada, Jersey and Nigeria. Gives them 6 points.

Jersey are on 4. If they lose to Ireland and Oman (likely), they stay on 4.
UAE are on 4. if they beat Nigeria and lose to Canada (quite possible), they finish on 6.
Ireland are on 4, and with wins over Nigeria and Jersey (likely), they finish on 8
Oman, with win over Jersey, will move to 6 points.
Canada, with a win over UAE and a loss to HK, will move to 8 points.
Nigeria, losing all their remaining games, finish on 0 points.

If Canda beat Oman, then Oman, UAE and HK will all be on 6 points each and fighting for two slots.
If Oman beat Canda, then UAE and HK will both be on 6 points, fighting for one spot on NRR

There is still hope! GA YAU HONG KONG!

HK batting first. 4th time in a row. I think we should try bowling first for a change. We're not scoring enough to put the chasing side under enough pressure. We should try to bowl them out for like 100 and then back ourselves to chase it.

Fun innings from the Kat. The batting has been chaotic today, but maybe that's what we needed. 76/3 after 10. Could possibly get 150 here.

HK lucky that they didn't have to go through qualifiers for this tournament because they would have most likely lost it

not good. Seems like we've overcompensated from a lack of urgency to now just going after literally everything. 6 wickets for just 33 runs.

This team has only 5 out of the 11 players that played in the Asia Cup around this time last year. Most Associates would suffer with a loss in talent to that extent.

And only 7 out of that 17 man squad. Geez.

UAE and HK. Both teams heavily involved in fixing and performing pathetically in this tournament. At least HK have a youth setup but there's literally nothing to like about UAE team
