Germany complete comprehensive win against Norway to give themselves a chance to overtake Jersey. Craig Meschede making 28 of 19 and Michael Richardson with 35 of 25 balls.

Italy will also try to hammer Denmark by 200 runs in the hope that Germany win by a small margin. Exciting league, I make Germany favourites now.
Found some live streams, incase it gets interesting: (they seem to have commentary too!)

Germany smartly went about their business, losing 7 wickets but winning with over 30 balls to spare, so I assumed they'd edged it on the NRR. But had a look at the live stream and it turns out nobody knew what was going on (surely the Germans would get their calculators out to have a look before starting?!). In fact, Jersey have edged through - tremendous achievement to overcome populations the size of Germany and Italy and head off to the UAE to face the big guns!

Unbelievable finish! Jersey qualifies for the Global Qualifier by the most narrow of margins. Germany win the match but fail to score the runs in the required overs missing out by only 3 balls.

Netherlands might be doing it again! Definitely one to follow for Somerset fans...
EDIT: 90mph Yorker jinx from yours truly!

Wow. Netherlands and Zimbabwe serving up more treats... 13 required off the last over, Zimbabwe start with two sixes... then proceed to not score off the remaining four balls (dot, bowled, bowled, run out) and tie. No matter, as they score a pretty formidable 18/0 in the super over!

Having won the first Oman’s lot are now going around the proverbial park. Coetzer is better than your favourite batsman.
EDIT: Bloody Hell Scotland I take my eyes off you for JUST A MINUTE

Oman rinsed them in the end. Don't think many would have had them as 2 and zip early on.

Women's 2020 t20 (yes indeed, the t20 t20) World Cup qualification has just concluded, and one name from the 10 teams stands out a tad...
Australia, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka, West Indies, Bangladesh, Thailand
Exciting to see a new name break through and huge result for them!
Thailand women played their first ever match in July 2007. Today was their 119th match. Nattaya Boochatham has played in EVERY SINGLE ONE. Somnarin Tippoch has missed just one match, and has been captain in all but three.

Great to see Thailand qualify, hopefully they can cause a few problems for the big sides with their strong bowling.
