ACC Asia Cup Qualifiers 2018 - Malaysia

[Daemon]

Yeah we're ****ed unless Chetan does something special. Poor effort with the ball.

Interesting fact - Aryaman is 17 years old, about 195cm tall and weighs 90kg. Massive kid (think Tremlett). One of the fastest bowlers in SG.

HK should win from here. Already nabbed Faiz and the only one quality bat left is Virandeep.

Malaysia 55/3, already a third of the way there. This Shafiq bloke playing a blinder.

His highest score for a while

 

[cnerd123]

75/3

We're ****ed. Losing opening game to Malaysia - that's basically the campaign over on game one.

 

[cnerd123]

**** yea Nadeem. We needed that wicket desperately.

Need to get these guys to collapse now.

Aritra and Rezza playing ahead of Navin has got to be the biggest joke. I hope you're reading this ****s.

haha what are the odds of anyone in the Singapore Cricket community being able to trace back who you are based on your CW posting

Possible, but highly unlikely. For once my sheer volume of posting comes to good use.

Doesn't look like Singapore will get close to the target

 

[Daemon]

Lmao we're 19/5

 

[cnerd123]

Losing to Malaysia is pretty bad, but if we lose to Singapore...

Your kids already lost to both (despite fielding overage players). The future is bleak for HK cricket.

105/5, game isn't over yet. Only 56 runs to play with tho.

 

[cnerd123]

one man show atm - Nadeem Ahmad 4/24, Malaysia 118/6

Gotta hope the last few guys don't know the right way to hold a bat. Just 33 runs away.

 

[cnerd123]

21 runs away, this is almost done.

Depressing really. Kudos to Malaysia tho - huge win for them in their home tournament.

Seems like UAE and Nepal the early favorites to get that Asia Cup spot.

Wow great win for Malaysia. My partner is from Ipoh and I’ve seen cricket pitches there but they seemed pretty rough and there wasn’t a lot of knowledge about the game - while her family at least know what cricket is, the details are a mystery to them. I understand there are nicer grounds elsewhere in the country, and when I saw the Ipoh stadium (where they play the Azlan Shah tournament) I thought it was a shame the sultan played hockey for Malaya rather than cricket

Quite fancy trying to find a game next time we are over.

 

[cnerd123]

Oman with the upset victory over the newest ODI nation Nepal!

UAE now the favourites. HK and Nepal need to win everything from here on out, whilst Malaysia and Oman are suddenly in contention if they can beat another one of the those three.

 

[smash84]

so, the UAE win by 215 runs. Not too shabby

 

[sledger]

If we win I will go back to Melacca and try and revise my opinion that Chicken Rice Balls are crap.
