A half-hour delay before Namibia chose to bat losing Zane Green in Sana's first over. JP Kotzé and Nicolaas Davin added 70 for the second wicket but both out to left-arm spinner Shahid Ahmadzai, who claims Malan Kruger and JJ Smit to make it four. A struggle for the hosts against the four Canadian spinners before Sana returns and adds three more to his tally leaving Jan Loftie-Eaton unbeaten on 47. Steady start by Yuvraj Samra and Navneet Dhaliwal safely on to 'drinks'. But the resumption sees both edging Erasmus to keeper Zane Green. Another for Erasmus, Pargat Singh top edging a sweep to Kruger at short fine leg, pressure now on Canada with 24 required from 3 overs. SIX! that helps. Wicket next ball doesn't, and a run out adds to the agony. Finally Kumar, batting one-handed, is given lbw, to say 'close' would be generous!

A sixty run partnership between skipper Gerhard Erasmus and Malan Kruger was all Namibia had to show for their decision to bat first. Three early wickets for Aryan Dutt and three also for both Kyle Klein, who made the initial breakthrough, and Paul van Meekeren who wrapped the innings up, the last six wickets falling for just 32 runs. In the chase Bernard Scholtz caused a wobble with the wickets of Zach Lion-Cachet and Max O’Dowd in quick succession. From 40/3 Colin Ackermann and Scott Edwards steered the Oranje to the win and second place in the table, their unbroken partnership worth 112, both completing half centuries in the process.

Poor weather continues to plague the games in Windhoek with overnight thunderstorms making a 7.30 scheduled start impossible. Indeed such were the ground conditions the match has been abandoned without a ball bowled.

Canada’s openers Navneet Dhaliwal and Yuvraj Samra battled through the opening overs in an opening partnership of 54. 82/2 at the halfway stage but with wickets falling to Scholtz and Shaun Fouché there was little chance for any acceleration before the threat of rain brought the covers on and an end to the innings three overs early. In the chase Namibian skipper Gerard Erasmus and JJ Smit both fell at 111 and with boundaries drying up even a modest 5 an over from the last 10 seemed too big an ask for the host’s tail. Somehow they got it down to 7 required off Sana’s final over - 0,0,2,4,0, then Leichman parried the ball back to Sana and was just short as the bowler broke the stumps. Sana bowled the Super Over taking 2-2 plus a leg-bye. Not enough as Smit goes for 1,2,4, Pargat Singh with the winning boundary.

Netherlands openers Vikram Singh and Max O’Dowd battled through to the halfway stage of the reduced game posting 84 before both fell in quick succession. The innings turned into a procession after that with only Teja Nidamanuru offering any resistance but thirty-two precious runs added for the final wicket gave the Netherlands something to defend and defend it they did with some ease. Two wickets for Kyle Klein in his opening over, then three from off-spinner Ayran Dutt removed the middle order, before Zach Lion-Cachet wrapped things up with ten overs to spare.

No play was possible after the Netherlands won the toss and elected to field in this first of the Tri-series involving today's teams plus Namibia. Friday's fixture will see the hosts in action against the Netherlands.

First blood to the hosts in this top of the table clash, winning the Toss and reducing the USA to 31/5, with three wickets for Shakeel Ahmed and two for Aamir Kaleen. In the end all five Omani bowlers took wickets with the only resistance coming from Milind Kumar who did what he could to marshall the tail to some sort of total. And amazingly it’s more than enough! Hammad Mirza the only batter to reach double figures as five fell to Nosthush Kenjige’s slow left arm spin. Like snow off a ditch with final six wickets falling for just eight runs. USA four points clear at the top of the table as the round of matches ends.

A disastrous start by Namibia after choosing to bat, slumping to 19/4 as the Omani opening bowlers, Ahmad and Odera each picked up two wickets. Jan Loftie-Eaton battled through to the twenty fifth over but was the seventh wicket to fall with the total at 74. Two more for Shakeel Ahmad leaves Namibia struggling to reach 100, and despite 14 from Ruben Trumplemann they don't quite get there. Oman though were made to fight all the way as five wickets from skipper Gerard Erasmus had them in trouble at 87 for 8 but they managed to scramble over the line.

USA skipper Monak Patel and Andries Gous added 96 for the second wicket after being asked to bat first. Late hitting Sanjay Krishnamurthi and Aaron Jones has set Namibia a challenging total. Bernard Scholtz with five wickets tor just 22 runs in his ten over spell. Namibia lost early wickets and despite half centuries from Zane Green and Ruben Trumplemann they were always behind in the chase. Three wickets apiece for Netravalkar and Kumar sealing a 70-run win,

It looked like a routine chase as Oman reached 58 for 1 in pursuit of their target but it all went wrong. Two wickets apiece for Jan Loftie-Eaton, JJ Smit, Bernard Scholtz, Rubin Trumpelmann and Gerhard Erasmus sealing a 23-run verdict.

Andries Gous and skipper Monak Patel added 110 for the second wicket but three wickets from JJ Smit stalled the USA's progress mid-innings. Milind Kumar takes the attack to Namibia with 54 off 34 (6x4,2x6) and USA set Nambia a challenging total in the reduced overs game. The Namibian chase simply never got going against a disciplined USA attack. Big win for the USA which reinforces their position at the top of the table.
