Anyone following the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off? United States of America has already qualified for the next phase (2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier), since they have 8 points from 5 matches. In all probability, United Arab Emirates will be the second team to qualify, as they have 6 points currently and have one match against Jersey remaining. Jersey has lost 3 out of their 4 matches so far, and is a foregone conclusion that UAE will win the match and qualify for the next phase with 8 points. Namibia will fail to qualify, after they only managed to win 3 out of 5 matches.
@Sithara007 so far it’s clear that USA should easily qualify, and Namibia will be praying that other results go their way otherwise they’ll fail to qualify and here I feel had they beaten UAE then they would be in a safer spot. Also at this stage I too expect UAE to win, but I hope that they don’t play in overconfidence and end up suffering an loss which could harm their chances of qualifying.
USA and UAE are most likely to qualify. I know that if other results go in favor of Namibia, they might have a chance. But that chance looks very slim right now. USA and UAE have good spots set up for them right now and there should not be throwing it away from this situation. UAE should understand that everyone they are facing in the playoff does have the ability to beat them, so UAE should in no circumstances be overconfident about their ability.
