Full commentary
The tournament's proved the coaches' adage, 'it's not how well you start, it's how well you finish'. Saudi Arabia in having their top order rolled over today and then being powerless in the field against Man of the Match Mohammad Irfan lost to Kuwait and with Singapore racing to victory against Maldives earlier, it is Singapore who finishes top and wins the ACC Elite League.
Sets them up nicely for Pepsi ICC World Cricket League Division 4 which starts in eight days' time again in Singapore. Thanks for being with us all through the past week, we've seen some competitive Associate and Affiliate cricket and it's been our pleasure to bring it to you yet again.

Bit of a brains trust discussion between Afzal, Abdullah and Hammad before Nadeem comes on at the Sports Hub End. Saudi Arabia surging from Day 1, are now looking down the barrel and seeing second place. Need five quick wickets
