I'd rather see Zimbabwe and Scotland cement their places at the world cup.

Would be a most wonderful mockery of the whole system.
I dunno. I think more than any other nation Zimbabwean cricket needs to play in this world cup. They've had a good system in the past and are building something good again but not making the world cup will probably kill it.
Yeah there was an article saying they are $19 mil in debt and need to make this world cup otherwise they'll cancel series against Pakistan and Australia. If they make the world cup teams will be more willing to play them. Windies will have plenty of Cricket either way. Scotland won't be in the ODI league so 9 matches against full members would be massive. Great for getting sponsors and funding as well.

Scotland being at the 2019 World Cup would be the best way to force the issue of how badly the ICC board is treating teams that aren't full members. If the Dutch had made it, it would've had less impact because they'll be in the 13 team ODI Championship and have guaranteed fixtures. But Scotland? Scotland have nothing, despite finishing a close 2nd in the same championship and bordering two full members.
Absolutely and i reckon they'll get good attendances at their matches being so close.

Bas de Leede giving a good account of himself. He and Zulfiqar bode well for the future.

PNG win their first match of the tournament in the 4000th ODI, which will also be the last ODI that they and Hong Kong play for a while. A long while.
HK really needed another decent batsman this tournament, and this last placed finish came after finishing third in the WCL Championship behind the Netherlands and Scotland, and very nearly finishing first if not for two close losses to the Dutch at home.

Lot riding on this game. Scotland win and that's it for both Ireland and probably Afghanistan as well.
Well that was a bit piss poor.

Anyone else see a few Glenn Maxwell mannerisms in Balbirnie’s stance and leave?
