Canada and the UAE will aim to revive their campaigns when they clash in Group D, with both teams struggling to draw positives from their opening matches. Heavy defeats first up have left them playing catch-up early in the tournament, making this encounter crucial not only for points but also for rebuilding confidence.
Canada were outplayed by South Africa, who amassed 213 for 4 before limiting them to 156 for 8. Their bowlers were unable to contain the scoring once South Africa found rhythm, and although Navneet Dhaliwal fought back with a half-century, the chase never truly threatened. The loss underlined the need for greater discipline with the ball and a more cohesive batting effort if Canada are to challenge stronger opponents.
The UAE endured a similarly one-sided result, despite some promise with the bat. They posted 173 for 6 against New Zealand, a total that appeared competitive, but were left searching for answers as their opponents chased it down without losing a wicket. While the batting unit displayed intent and depth, the bowling attack struggled for breakthroughs and control against top-class opposition. Like Canada, the UAE must quickly regroup and deliver a more balanced performance in what has become a pivotal fixture.
