Congrats to all four qualifiers, and to Afghanistan for arguably the greatest achievement of all.
Scotland must be gutted and relieved at the same time, but for them retaining ODI status but not going to the WC I'd say the gut reigns atm.
Namibia fought well in the S8's, but their strength is in FC cricket and it showed.
UAE...good riddance I say, one total expat team in the second tier is enough.
To the Dutch, they made it more difficult than should have been necessary, especially with the horror results against UAE and Scotland, games they should both have won.
Ireland is clearly by far the best of the Associates.
End random thoughts here. I'll update the predictor comp later and don't forget to hand in your predictions for the final round of matches!
