Oman have been seriously impressive.

It would seem the UAE is currently being rocked by a corruption scandal.

 

[Daemon]

Dire stuff. Good thing they were caught before the T20 WC qualifiers start

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Where are the Qualifiers held? In the UAE?

Yep.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Yep.

UAE shooting themselves in the foot with these corruption allegations.

 

[mr_mister]

Ya dun goofed UAE

 

[CricAddict]

Ya dun goofed UAE

Yeah, and it is their 3 main players who have been suspended. Suspect the whole team is in it.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

I kinda liked Naveed, their only bowler who could operate at a pace not most accurately measured by a theodolite. Shame he turned out to be a crook.

Anyway Cricinfo are pretty dim. Definitely under rating this Namibian team somewhat

Singapore doing ok against Scotland today despite the loss of Tim David for 1

Is this being streamed anywhere?

 

[Daemon]

Also Nepalese fans are seriously awful.

Every post on Singapore’s page is swamped by them because they’re upset Nepal was knocked out by SG. They hate Tim David so much lol.

Nope, played at the academy ground without cameras.

HK-Ireland and Oman-UAE will be streamed though.

That's a bit disappointing. Oman-UAE is the only one on TV here tonight.

Janak injured after one over

Should be a simple chase for Scotland from here on. 70/2 in 7.

 

[_Ed_]

They should still get there, but they've lost a fair bit of momentum in the last few overs - 33-3 from the last five.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

big six from MacLeod

 

[Daemon]

Stop giving David the ball ffs

 

[_Ed_]

Another wicket! They possibly needed it to be MacLeod, but this could still go down to the wire.

 

[Daemon]

19 off 12. I’d say advantage Singapore if MacLeod wasn’t there.

 

[Daemon]

8 from 6

Need some magic from the boob
