Shanaka: I would throw up first too. Junatilaka is wounded, and Asalinka arrives. We have a balanced team. Had a bad day at the office – let’s forget it. We never underestimate any aspect.
CB Rizwan: He will deliver. Today is a hot day, play dew. Lots of positives from the last game. I made it to the end. We hope you build on it and put on a great show.
The United Arab Emirates chose to participate by winning the lottery.The Netherlands just crossed the line against Namibia in today’s opening match.
This makes NRR even more important as the group could come down to a triple tie. Or maybe the UAE has something to say about that. We will find out.
