Elsewhere, Zimbabwe crushed the USA by 191 runs, thanks to a second-wicket partnership of 214 between David Houghton (135) and Kevin Curran (126 not out) that set them on their way to 332/4. The Americans were never remotely in the hunt, and 4-34 from Peter Rawson

. Gibraltar's 129/8 off 40 overs (Gordon Bacon 4-37) proved well short of what was required, as Des Greenwood and Reeve both made unbeaten scores of 56 to guide Hong Kong to an eight-wicket triumph. Finally, Israel slumped to 65 all out against Zimbabwe, with only Perlman reaching double figures and John Traicos
taking 4-22. In reply the Africans scorched to a nine-wicket victory from a mere 7.3 overs, Houghton making 43.

Hong Kong dived to 47/7 before recovering to 105, but 39 not out from Hitesh Mehta saw Kenya home by three wickets. Finally, Papua New Guinea could manage only 94 in their game against Zimbabwe, and Houghton (44 not out) and Curran (30 not out) ensured a simple nine-wicket victory for the African side.

A hopelessly one-sided game saw Bermuda amass 348/9 against Malaysia, with Gladstone Brown (100) and Winston Reid (128) sharing an opening stand of 211. In reply, Banerji made a brave 34 but none of his team-mates reached double figures as the Malaysians were rolled over for just 64 to lose by 284 runs. Elvin James recorded astonishing bowling figures of 7.1-5-2-5
for Bermuda. And the Netherlands' 150/8 was sufficient to hold off East Africa (127) in a match that produced no fewer than 52 extras between the two sides.

Rain stopped play when Fiji were 79/2 in reply to the Netherlands' imposing 251/6, RJ Elferink hitting a fine 154 not out, but the Dutch had done enough to win on faster scoring rate. The East-West Africa clash was a disappointment, however, being called off after East Africa had reached 53/2 from 25.1 overs.

An opening stand of 94 between KW Arnold (54) and DC Patel (52) laid the foundations for East Africa's 220/7 against Fiji, and 4-21 from Desai made sure of an 88-run victory. Malaysia put up 128 in an all-south-east-Asian clash with Singapore, but their opponents glided to a six-wicket win with more than 15 overs to spate thanks to a knock of 67 from FJR Martens.

Finally, there was no result in the game between Malaysia and West Africa, the Malaysians having made 219/9 from 58 overs (S Elliott 75, J Onyechi 57; K Kamalanathan 4-45) when the players were forced from the field.

The Papuans were inspired by this to reach their target with three wickets and three overs remaining, W Maha hitting 60 in a three-wicket victory despite Bangladeshi captain and wicket-keeper Shafiq-ul-Haq

Zimbabwe looked in a spot of bother at 30/2 with both openers gone, but the match and the Trophy were decided by half-centuries from Andy Pycroft, who made 82, and Craig Hodgson (57 not out); the Africans won with more than five overs to play with.

Kenya recorded an easy nine-wicket win over Gibraltar. The Europeans were dismissed for just 80 (RCR Patel 3-13) and their opponents rushed to victory in 14.2 overs, with Rehmann making 53 not out.

made 38 for Hong Kong and took 2-26, but the Papuans overhauled their target of 100 with 34.4 overs in hand. Elsewhere, Zimbabwe crushed the USA by 191 runs, thanks to a second-wicket partnership of 214 between David Houghton (135) and Kevin Curran (126 not out) that set them on their way to 332/4.

restricted their total to just 141.
18 June
Gibraltar were in trouble at 42/4 against the United States, Shamshad Durrani having taken 3-12, before the rains came and put paid to any chance of a result. In a match reduced to 45 overs a side, Hong Kong's 207/7 (Andy Lorimer 53) was good enough, though Nissam Reuben's 6-2-7-3 was noteworthy, and the Israelis collapsed to 84 all out. In an all-African affair reduced to a 25-over game, Zimbabwe posted a highly competitive 192/4 (Houghton 71, Jack HeronJack Heron

50) which Kenya never got anywhere near, making just 72/4 to lose by 120 runs.
21 June
The game between Gibraltar and Zimbabwe saw no play at all, and nor did the matches between Kenya and the USA or between Canada and Hong Kong. The other game did produce a result, however, with Israel recovering from the depths of 32/5 to post a reasonable-looking 167/9, bolstered by 75 not out from Stanley Perlman. Despite losing an early wicket, however, the Papuans cantered to a nine-wicket win as Nigel Robert Agonia (86 not out) and Taunao Vai (75 not out) added an unbroken 157 for the second wicket.23 June
Israel were in dire straits at 74/6 against Kenya when the weather intervened, but that was the only action on this day, with Canada v Gibraltar and Papua New Guinea v the USA seeing not a ball bowled between them.25 June
Yet another rain-affected day saw no match reach a positive result. Canada had made 8/0 from nine overs against Zimbabwe when the players left the field, while Gibraltar reached 42/2 against Israel from ten. There was no play at all between Hong Kong and the United States.28 June
At last the weather held off for long enough to allow all three matches to reach a conclusion, albeit from a reduced number of overs. In a 55-over game, Papua New Guinea won against the odds by 30 runs against Canada, an unbeaten 101 from Vavine Pala guiding them to 231/7 from 83/6 while K Kalo took 4-26 as the Canadians could manage only 211 despite 50 from Tariq JavedTariq Javed

2 July
An innings of 107 by IF Kirmani enabled Canada to make 242/8 against Kenya, and despite 53 from GA Musa 4-26 from Clement Neblett meant that the Africans fell 45 runs short. Gibraltar made a mere 55, the lowest total of the tournament, against Papua New Guinea with Pala taking 4-30, and the Papuans made short work of their target as they cruised to a nine-wicket win. Against the United States, Israel made a creditable 157, but NS Lashkari (76 not out) and Kamran Rasheed (65 not out) guided the Americans to a comfortable eight-wicket triumph.5 July
Israel declined to play Canada, who won by a walk-over; the teams did however play a friendly match, which the Canadians won by three wickets.

for Bermuda. And the Netherlands' 150/8 was sufficient to hold off East Africa (127) in a match that produced no fewer than 52 extras between the two sides.
18 June
Rain destroyed any chance of meaningful play on this day. The matches between East Africa and Singapore and between the Netherlands and West Africa were abandoned without a ball being bowled, while the one game that did get underway saw Fiji reach 31/2 off 14 overs before a halt was called to proceedings.21 June
The match between the Netherlands and Singapore was abandoned with no play possible, but the other two games produced results. Bangladesh were restricted to 143 against East Africa thanks to William Bourne's 4-33, but no-one but Extras passed 20 in reply and Bangladesh won by 26 runs. Elsewhere, in a game reduced to a 20-over thrash, Bermuda's 153/5 (captain Colin Blades 45 not out) proved too much for Fiji, who could manage only 102/6 to lose by 51 runs.23 June
All three matches scheduled for this day - Bangladesh v Singapore, East Africa v Malaysia and Fiji v West Africa - were abandoned without a ball being bowled.25 June
The weather proved the only winner once more, as again all three games - Bangladesh v Fiji, Bermuda v the Netherlands and Singapore v West Africa - saw no play whatsoever.28 June
The most exciting of the four games scheduled for this day was a thrilling one-run victory in a 25-over match by Bangladesh over Malaysia. Raqibul Hasan made 35 in the Bangladeshi's 122/7, but Malaysia were closing on their target at 113/4 before two quick wickets fell; they ended just short on 121/6.

helped Bermuda to 240 in a 56-over game, and despite 64 from DC Patel, East Africa could manage no more than 176, 64 runs adrift. Finally, there was no result in the game between Malaysia and West Africa, the Malaysians having made 219/9 from 58 overs (S Elliott 75, J Onyechi 57; K Kamalanathan 4-45) when the players were forced from the field.
5 July
West Africa batted well against Bermuda to post a total of 249, with Elliott making 67 and Onyechi 53 despite Elvin James' 4-41. An unbroken partnership of 125 between Brown (78 not out) and Blades (82 not out) settled the matter, however, as the Bermudians won by seven wickets with more than 11 overs in hand. M Rajalingham took 5-39 for Singapore to restrict Fiji to 219,but it was not quite enough as the Singaporeans were bowled out 14 runs short for 205. In the other match, a massive opening partnership of 257 between centurions Rene Schoonheim (117) and RE Lifmann (155 not out, the tournament's highest score) propelled the Netherlands to 301/3 and gave Malaysia no chance of victory, and the Asians were dismissed for 176 to give the Dutch a 125-run win.Final group tables

Bangladesh v Zimbabwe
Batting first, Bangladesh stuttered to 45/4, and a fifth-wicket stand of 52 was in vain as 4-31 from Kevin Curran restricted the team to an inadequate 124. David Houghton fell for 1 in the Zimbabwean reply, but once Heron (63 not out) and Curran (44) had added 103 for the second wicket there was only one winner, and they reached their target with more than 30 overs to spare to record an easy eight-wicket victory.Bermuda v Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea were in all sorts of trouble after collapsing to 48/6, but Pala stopped the rot with 72 and they eventually reached 153 before being bowled out in 39 overs. Despite losing Brown before a run had been scored, Bermuda ran out six-wicket winners despite losing three wickets for four runs at one stage. Blades hit 69 not out in an unbeaten hundred partnership with John Tucker.Third-place play-off - 9 July

. From the commanding heights of 170/0, though, they lost all ten wickets for 54 runs (and their last six for 16) as La'a Aukopi returned outstanding figures of 5-14 from 11 overs.

making three stumpings in the innings.
Final - 10 July
No batsman reached 50 in the Bermudian innings, but solid contributions from Brown (48), Blades (45) and Douglas (36) guided them to a reasonable 231/8 from their 60 overs. Duncan FletcherDuncan Fletcher

was the pick of the Zimbabwean bowlers with 3-34 from nine overs. Zimbabwe looked in a spot of bother at 30/2 with both openers gone, but the match and the Trophy were decided by half-centuries from Andy Pycroft, who made 82, and Craig Hodgson (57 not out); the Africans won with more than five overs to play with.
