Cheema heroics help Canada to big win over Namibia

Namibia’s batsmen appeared too fragile to test the well-oiled Canadian bowling unit. Saad Bin Zafar was the pick of the bowlers for Canada. He scalped four wickets for 16 runs from three overs, while Cecil Pervez and Satsimranjit Dhindsa bagged a couple each to help Canada bowl Namibia out for just 75 in 11.4 overs. Only two batsmen – Gerrie Snyman and Sarel Burger – were able to make it to double digits in the run chase.

Over at Stormont in Belfast, Alex Cusack and George Dockrell picked up three wickets apiece to help Ireland bowl Oman out for just 91 in 18.5 overs. But before Ireland could come out and have a crack at the chase, the rain came down and the game had to be called off.

Elsewhere, Kenya’s clash against the United States of America at Bready and Afghanistan’s tie against Hong Kong in New Williamfield were both washed out.
