5th v 6th WCL2 playoff | Canada v HK live blog

Cricinfo scores | ICC match centre

Canada require 117 for victory. Hong Kong won the toss and batted first.

IT’S ALL OVER – 114/6 AFTER 16.5 OVERS! CANADA HAS FIFTH PLACE

13th Over 86/4 – Ehsan take another wicket and that’s lunch!

14 OVERS 81/3 – Canada has lost their third wicket in the 13th with 83 on the board – Ehsan Khan takes the catch at mid on after Patel tried to heave it over mid on. Ghazanfer’s first List A wicket!

36TH OVER 116 ALL OUT. A disappointing effort from the Hong Kong side.

33rd – 101/9 Tanwir Afzal nicks off.

32 OVERS 101/8 – Zafar has 4! Ehsan Khan skies one.

30th over 97/7 Wicket! Zafar with his third – Aizaz goes for 4

27 OVERS 90/6 – Hayat and McKechnie had built a nice partnership with some crisp boundaries but both have been removed by Zafar – the left arm spinner getting some decent turn on this United CC wicket. Tanwir and Aizaz at the crease

16 OVERS 53/4 – Babar Hayat starting to unwind, two boundaries in that over.

11 OVERS 31/4 PATEL STRIKES TWICE! Abbasi tries to go over the top and Heyligers hangs on to his second lofted chance. Then Atkinson goes to work the ball to the leg side and is smartly caught by short-straight mid wicket

7 OVERS 17/2 – An understandably lackadaisical start from both sides; Heyligers drops Atkinson of Patel and then Pervez removes the leg stumps of WCL2 leading run scorer Rath in the 4th then dismissed Kinchit Shah LBW in a decision that doesn’t seem to have impressed the Hong Kong left-hander.

No Davy Jacobs for Canada today.
