Oman weren't able to post a challenging enough total thanks to Afghanistan's spinners who dominated the middle 30 overs of the game, Man of the Match Samiullah, Nabi and Hamza conceding just 90 overs between them while taking 8 wickets. Oman's bowlers weren't as consistently threatening today as they have been up to now in the ACC Premier League and Noor Ali's 67 in partnership with others, took the game away from the Gulf nation. Afghanistan now join Oman at the top of the table while we await the result of the rain-affected game between Hong Kong and Nepal. Rain just beginning to fall here at the Selangor Turf Club too. The last round of matches on Wednesday - including Afghanistan v Nepal - will decide who wins the ACC Premier League.

Thanks for being with us today, we look forward to welcoming you back from Kuala Lumpur then.
