I of course meant DAVY Jacobs, who has led Canada to victory.
Oman really struggling now, 4/115 after 35. HK similar, 6/130 after 39.

The batting numbers look disturbingly low for a team of the tournament. Or was the bowling that good across the board?
Outfields aren't the standard you would expect at test level, either.Pitches in Associate cricket are rarely batsman friendly, particularly when the WCL tournaments take place on the same pitches on multiple days in a row.

Yeah I'd expect that the US, Canada, Netherlands would have fairly slick outfields.Depends on the ground, but yeah the Namibian grounds were fairly bumpy.

You'd think the first world countries could get the outfields to the standard of premier cricket grounds in Australia though? Hell, some of the suburban outfields out here beat some of the FC outfields in the likes of Sri Lanka.It's a mixed bag. The VRA Ground in Amstelveen is great. VOC's Hazelaarweg is decent too. Fort Lauderdale's the only ground in the US, it's also good.
Canada's main international ground is King City, which is pretty ordinary.

Huh, fair enough. What European countries (other than the Dutch and Scots) are fairly high up in terms of Associate nations?The best Associate ground is Kinrara in Malaysia. Often the quality depends a lot more on how they're getting the income to build/maintain the ground.

The Danes would be interesting, from memory it's pretty popular for Aussie ex pats.The three European teams in the new Challenge League (ie. tier 3 of ODIs) are Denmark, Jersey and Italy. Jersey has a pretty excellent venue as well.
With the shrinking and end of WCL, everything below Challenge League is T20, for the most part.
