In match 7 of the ongoing T20 World Cup Qualifier, the United Arab Emirates will take on Germany. The UAE beat Ireland in their opening game, while Germany went down to Bahrain comprehensively. It was a must-win game for Germany to make it to the semi-finals of the tournament.
UAE played well against Ireland in their first game. Vrittya Aravind single-handedly helped them post 157 runs on the board, scoring a 97-run knock off 67 deliveries. Their bowlers, led by Karthik Meiyappan, then did a good job, striking at regular intervals and not letting Ireland settle in the middle, to win by 18 runs.
Meanwhile, Germany’s batters disappointed a lot, as they only mustered 107, with Junaid Aziz of Bahrain returning magical figures of 5/5. Germany could also cross the 100-run mark, due to the exploits of Vijayshankar Chikkannaiah, who scored a 43-ball 50. Bahrain won by six wickets.

Muhammad Waseem, Chirag Suri, Vriitya Aravind (WK), Rohan Mustafa, Basil Hameed, Zawar Farid, Kashif Daud, Karthik Meiyappan, Ahmed Raza (C), Zahoor Khan, Junaid Siddique.
