Nur Aishah top scored with 47 - the tournament's highest individual score so far - and took three wickets in Malaysia's 82-run win over Kuwait, one which pushed them to second place behind Nepal in Group B. She added 92 with Zoe Landry (38 not out) to take Malaysia to a tournament-high 144 at the Chiang Mai Gymkhana. A curious feature of the Malaysian innings was that all four dismissals were run-outs. Kuwait's chase began poorly with Landry removing Alina D' Silva off her first ball. Then Aishah struck thrice, including twice in successive overs, in a period of eight overs where Kuwait added only 15 runs. They limped to 62 in their 25 overs - captain Priyada Murali top scoring with 21 - helped on their way by 19 extras.

It took Qatar 10.3 overs to overhaul Oman's 64 for their first win of the ACC Under-19 women's tournament at the Prem Oval in Thailand. Shruthi Srinivasan, Safa Patel and Nahan Arif took three wickets each to bowl out Oman in 21.1 overs after which the Qatar openers set up the win with a 35-run stand. Srinivasan gave them the early breakthroughs with a triple-strike that reduced Oman to 16 for 3. They had barely recovered from that when Patel took two in two overs. She and Arif wrapped up the tail, with Arif dismissing top scorer Arzoo Sattikar for 14. Arif also chipped in with an unbeaten 17 and was named the Player of the Match for her efforts.

Despite Wang Wenfei's 4 for 11, China could not prevent Singapore from chasing down 75 at the Prem Oval. Wenfei took her wickets - all bowled - in her first four overs, including two in the space of four balls. But the target was too small for China to defend. Apart from Yu Miao (13), no other batsman reached double figures.
