Pakistan crush UAE to qualify for U19 tri-series final

DUBAI: A combined team effort helped Pakistan to thump the United Arab Emirates (UAE) U19 by a huge margin of 191 runs in the fifth match of the U19 tri-series tournament at the ICC Cricket Academy Ground in Dubai on Friday.

The win also confirms Pakistan’s place in the final, scheduled against Afghanistan U19 on Tuesday, 26 November at the same venue. The match will begin at 09:30 AM local time.

This was Pakistan’s second successive win over UAE in the tournament, after beating them by 10 wickets in the opening match.

The Saad Baig-led side also defeated Afghanistan in their previous encounter by 13 runs but faced a defeat against Afghanistan earlier in the tournament.

After opting to bat first, Pakistan U19 scored 314 for five in 50 overs – their best score in the series.

The left-handed opening pair of Shahzaib Khan and Usman Khan continued their fine form, knitting a 96-run partnership for the first wicket.

For UAE, Noorullah Ayubi and Uddish Suri bagged two wickets apiece.

In turn, UAE were beset by a top-order collapse as they were reduced to 52 for five in 16 overs.

At that stage, Ayaan Misbah (17) and Suri (32*) added a 21-run partnership for the sixth wicket before Misbah got out to Umar Zaib in the 26th over.

UAE were eventually dismissed for 123 in the 37th over. Naveed Ahmed Khan led the bowling attack of Pakistan U19 with three wickets, while Umar ended up with figures of four for 51.

The last group match of the U19 tri-series will be played between Afghanistan and UAE on Sunday, 24 November.

Aliya, Muneeba star as Pakistan thrash UAE in Women’s Asia Cup

SYLHET: Aliya Riaz and Muneeba Ali led the charge of Pakistan batting as the Green Shirts thumped the United Arab Emirates (UAE) by 71 runs in the Women’s Asia Cup 2022, here on Sunday. 

Aliya starred with a brilliant half-century as she blasted 57 off 36, laced with five fours and three sixes, aiding Pakistan to raise a respectable total of 145/5 after they were put to bat by UAE.

Set to chase 148, UAE batters put up an impressive show and consumed too many dot balls as they only managed 74/5 in the allotted 20 overs.

For Pakistan Sadia Iqbal, Aiman Anwer, Nashra Sandhu and Omaima Sohail took a scalp each.

Earlier in the first innings, Muneeba played a cautious knock of 43 off 45 amid a dismal show by the top-order as opener Sidra Ameen (2), skipper Bismah Maroof (7) and Omaima Sohail (0) fell cheaply on a paltry total of 41.

Muneeba was then joined by Aliya on the crease and moved the scoreboard to 77 before  Esha Oza dismissed Muneeba in the 14th over. 

All-rounder Nida Dar, on the other hand, played a superb cameo of unbeaten 25 off 17 balls as she combined excellently with Aliya for the seventh-wicket partnership of 67 runs and took the national team to a comfortable position in the game.

For UAE, Oza remained phenomenal with the balls as she produced the remarkable bowling figures of 3/22, while Mahika Gaur and Vaishnave Mahesh took a scalp each.
