Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! 🍗

Feels good to be a winner!

Tour Match 4
Vs Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
Result: :dance :clap :D
🇦🇪 win by 13 runs

The Match in a tweet: 🇦🇪 🇦🇪 🇦🇪 🇦🇪 🇦🇪 What an absolute rollercoaster. Big score that didn't look comfortable for a while there. Mathematically a chance for promotion.

Man of the Match: Rashid Oohood 🇦🇪

Our best:
Rashid Oohood - A very solid 70 runs and at a quick clip too.

Aden Talib - A steady 75 that gave a great platform to a large total. Also performed with the gloves, taking a catch.

Faraz Rashid - 2/48 and a maiden off his 9 overs. One of these wickets being an established opener too.

Wakil Turk - 3/55 off his 10 overs including two middle order batsmen that had made decent starts.

Now for a new segment.

MATHEMATICAL METHODS WITH MR MOOSE
If we beat Canada 🍁

✅ Avoid the Drop

IF Zimbabwe beat Scotland AND New Zealand beat Sri Lanka

2nd Spot aka Promotion to Div 1 will come down to net run rate between us, Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka.

If we lose to Canada 🍁

IF Scotland beat Zimbabwe

5th spot aka Drop Drop will come down to net run rate between us, Scotland and Zimbabwe.

TL;DR: we can finish anywhere between 2nd and 5th.

Tune in very shortly (match starts shortly) as we take on Canada in the final tour match of the week.

Trust in the process 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪
