PLAYER OF THE MATCH
So that is all from this one. You can hop tabs to follow all the action from the match between Sri Lanka and Hong Kong. Cheers!
Muhammad Waseem: (On the loss against India and comeback here) The past is the past and we wanted to show this caliber to everyone with the way we can play. Very happy with today, we prepared ourselves for three days and executed well as a batting and bowling unit. We wanted to attack in the powerplay and then bat deep. (On scoring 3000 runs) It is a very proud moment for me, my family and my country. I want to continue the same way.
Jatinder Singh: I believe credit goes to the UAE batters, they had their plans and executed well. When we started, we were on target but we lost too many wickets in crunch situations. The team is picking up but we lack a bit of experience. The track was placid and the ball was coming on nicely, we wanted to target the first six overs but we lost wickets and that put us on the backfoot. (On his wicket) He played as per plans, it was a slower one and I was a bit too early on the shot.
Alishan Sharafu | Player of the Match: It was quite fun and was an important game for us. Glad we could do it today. It was a 4pm start so the pitch was a bit slow, so we had to use the crease a bit. That’s something I try to do often - hit straight down the ground, and also make room to hit over covers. The plan was to accelerate in the powerplay and one of us had to bat deep.
19:39 Local Time, 15:39 GMT, 21:09 IST: Oman were never in the hunt in the run chase. They lost four inside the powerplay, there was a brief partnership for the sixth wicket, but that didn't last long enough to threaten UAE who were always in control. Junaid Siddique finished with four-fer while Jawadullah and Haider Ali picked up a couple of wickets each to wrap things up. It was the fifties from both openers that set UAE up nicely when they were put in to bat earlier in the day. Sharafu and Waseem shared an 88-run stand, helping their team post 172 on the board. Proved to be more than enough. With this result, Oman are out of the race for the next round while India have qualified.
