Here we are; back on Associate Cricket's Never-Ending tour as Oman, the UAE and Namibia Rock up in Dubai. As I have mentioned before there is a HUGE disparity regarding how many fixtures each team has played out. Oman top the table but have lacked 24 games, the UAE are 4th having played 11 with Namibia a place below them having played 2 fewer games. The best way to look at form is probably win ratio; which still puts Oman as top with 62.5% but Namibia are better value than they look have won 55.6% of their games. The UAE have won just 45.5%.
This form book played out as you'd expect in the first game today as Oman best the UAE. After posting 225-7, the UAE put up a fight but regular wickets from Bilal Khan (5-31) saw them fall 12 runs short. These five wickets sees Bilal Khan increase his lead at the top of the wicket taking charts to a huge 8 wickets.
Oman are back in action against Namibia tomorrow.
