- BATSMENRB4s6sSR9.4 oh dear, Patel got a little ambitious after his two boundaries in the over and gets a leading edge as he attempted another, spooning a catch to Qais Farook at mid-on 48/26.3 an inspired bowling change for the UAE as Amjad Javed gets through the forward defensive push of Ouma and knocks back his off stump 31/137.2 oh Karim, what a waste! Lovely shot the previous ball, he gets carried away and lofts the next without any timing and Amjad Ali takes the comfortable catch. Karim goes for 67 off 107 balls but he will be cross with himself as he was the guiding light for the Kenya innings 139/536.1 Naveed gets it right this time and Nelson O cuts to a deep gully where Ahmed Raza pouches the catch - and once again the Kenyans lose a wicket right on the drinks break 133/438.5 Nehemiah O continues his aggressive style but falls on his sword as he skews a drive to the cover fielder Mohammad Tauqir and yet again Kenya lose a wicket when they need to buckle down to see through the overs 149/6Extras18 (b 2, lb 6, nb 4, w 6)TOTAL270/6 (50 Overs, RR: 5.4)Fall of wickets: 1-31 (Morris Ouma, 6.3 ov), 2-48 (Narendra Kalyan, 9.4 ov), 3-63 (Collins Obuya, 14.6 ov), 4-133 (Nelson Odhiambo, 36.1 ov), 5-139 (Irfan Karim, 37.2 ov), 6-149 (Nehemiah Odhiambo, 38.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.4 having had a few nibbles outside off stump, Oluoch finally gets Amjad Ali to get a feather of a touch to keeper Karim - although he didn't seem overly happy about it 21/114.3 a smart catch from the skipper Rakep Patel at mid-wicket sees the end of Mohammad Shahzad and it is yet again the peril of the drinks break that strikes 61/328.2 big big wicket for Kenya as Shaiman Anwar backs away and exposes his stumps to James Ngoche's second ball and is bowled middle and off - that could signal the end of UAE's hopes 118/619.1 lofted and caught by Collins Obuya of his first ball - a great bowling change that 72/422.3 Bangash nibbles at one which turns away from him from Shem Ngoche and Karim completes the formalities 83/532.5 that is a cracking delivery from James Ngoche. Amjad Javed played for the turn and there wasn't any, going straight on and clattering into off stump. James liked that wicket as he scooted off in celebration!! 134/742.3 Raza attempts an almighty heave into the leg side but Karim spotted he was just out of his ground and smartly stumped him 196/844.3 it was just one big hit too many as Tauqir doesn't quite get hold of the shot and finds Nelson O on the long off boundary who takes the catch and ends the innings giving Kenya victory by 65 runs 205/1042.4 Another attempting something drastic across the line but completely missing it and Shaun George answered the appeals with the trusty right index finger - 2 wickets in 2 balls 196/9Extras11 (lb 3, nb 2, w 6)TOTAL205 all out (44.3 Overs, RR: 4.6)Fall of wickets: 1-21 (Amjad Ali, 5.4 ov), 2-37 (Qais Farooq, 9.3 ov), 3-61 (Mohammad Shahzad, 14.3 ov), 4-72 (Swapnil Patil, 19.1 ov), 5-83 (Abdul Shakoor, 22.3 ov), 6-118 (Shaiman Anwar, 28.2 ov), 7-134 (Amjad Javed, 32.5 ov), 8-196 (Ahmed Raza, 42.3 ov), 9-196 (Mohammad Naveed, 42.4 ov), 10-205 (Mohammad Tauqir, 44.3 ov)
