58 from P Budin helped Malaysia to 226/9, but the real culprits were the Argentine bowlers, who sent down a staggering 26 wides in the innings; AH Gooding took 4-35 from six overs. In reply Argentina fell to 44/7 and DA Culley's 41 could do no more than delay the inevitable as they were bowled out for 88 to lose by 134 runs.

Argentina surprisingly reduced Zimbabwe to 98/5, but then a stand of 174 between Rawson (125) and Gary Wallace (77) saw the Africans through to a daunting 357/7. Argentina were never likely to threaten such a target, and so it proved as they were bowled out for 150 to lose by a massive 207 runs. In the other Group A game, Jahangir ShahJahangir Shah

23 June
Despite no player reaching fifty, East Africa's 261/8 was always likely to be too good for Argentina, and so it proved as the South Americans were dismissed 84 runs short for 177, A Kumar claiming 6-26. The other match on this day saw Malaysia bowled out for 89 by Zimbabwe (Brandes 4-13, Rawson 4-22) who reached their target with little drama for the loss of just two wickets.25 June
Extras top-scored with 29 in Argentina's poor total of 122 against Bangladesh; the Asians had no problem knocking off the runs, Raqibul Hasan hitting 47 not out as they glided to an eight-wicket victory with more than 20 overs in hand. An exciting second match saw Denmark overcome Kenya by one wicket: some tight bowling from Mortensen (3-23) had restricted the Kenyans to 121, and although Denmark fell to 96/9, an unbroken last-wicket stand of 26 saw them through. For East Africa, GR Shariff made 72 and BR Bouri 31, but no-one else passed 7 as Brandes (5-37) wreaked havoc to dismiss them for 140. In reply, Zimbabwe reached 143/0 with 33 overs to spare, with David Houghton scoring 87 not out and Paterson 55 not out.27 June
Solid contributions throughout the order (six men passed 20; Mortensen an unbeaten 55) guided Denmark to a good-looking 265/8 against Malaysia, despite Stevens' haul of 4-48, and it was too much for their opponents, who lost their first three wickets for 18 and were eventually dismissed off the penultimate ball for 178, 87 runs behind, despite V Vijiyalingam's 51, his only Trophy half-century. Anil Patel made 65 out of Kenya's 209/9 against local rivals East Africa, who had no chance once they had slumped to 33/5 and lost in the end by 63 runs.30 June

top-scored with 48 as the Africans reached 228 all out against Argentina, who were unable to cope with the bowling of Zahoor Sheikh (4-25) and could do no better than 141, thus losing by 87 runs. Nehal Hasnain's 56 stood out for Bangladesh as Mortensen's 4-31 prevented their getting beyond 147; 49 for Johnny Jensen ensured a four-wicket victory for the Danes.

18 June
Bermuda made 224/9 (Hill 58, Manders 56), but despite no-one reaching 50 most of the USA team chipped in with useful runs and they won by three wickets with 16 balls to spare. 87 from Stearns and 80 from Myles helped Hong Kong to a good 261/7 against Canada, but a century opening partnership between Omadat Dipchand (76) and Prashad (40), plus 51 from IF Kirmani, got them to their target with four wickets and three balls remaining. Papua New Guinea obliterated Gibraltar by the little matter of 369 runs, amassing a Trophy record 455/9 (B Harry 127, Charles Amini 97, Api Leka 69, Renagi Ila 60 not out). De'Ath took five wickets, but his 12 overs cost 88 runs. In reply Gibraltar had no chance, subsiding to 86 all out with Maha taking 5-12 and G Ravu 4-16.

20 June
Gibraltar were humiliated by Canada: Abraham took 5-9 as the Gibraltarians were dismissed for 46, the lowest total of the tournament, and it could have been worse as they were 17/7 at one point. In reply the Canadians smashed 48 from just 23 balls to record the easiest of ten-wicket wins. CAC Browne made 57 as Fiji posted a competitive total of 251 against the United States, but an unbeaten 104 by Lashkari and 74 from Kamran Rasheed ensured a five-wicket win for the Americans. The Dutch put on 200 for the second wicket against Hong Kong (Atkinson 107, Gomes 101) and their opponents could only manage 157/9 from their allotted overs. Finally, Harry made 162 and Maha 52 as Papua New Guinea (377/6) destroyed Israel (100); Amini took 5-19 for the Papuans.23 June
Gibraltar's 143/7 included 33 extras, but Bermuda still recorded a comfortable seven-wicket win. Canada made their way to 328/7 against Israel, with 120 from Prashad the highlight and support from captain Clement Neblett (63) and IF Kirmani (57). Their opponents could manage only 94 in reply (D Singh 4-34). Papua New Guinea beat Fiji by 195 runs, PNG's 381/8 boosted by 113 from W Maha; N Tiana claimed 4-50 in Fiji's innings as they were bowled out for 186. And despite Chris Collins' 53 pulling Hong Kong up from 58/6 to 143 all out, the USA secured a five-wicket win inside 25 overs.25 June

27 June
Papua New Guinea subsided to 48/6 before 73 from number eight batsman Raki Ila restored some respectability; nevertheless their final total of 184 was not enough, 65 from opener Ricky Hill setting Bermuda on their way to a six-wicket triumph. 6-11 from slow left-armer Bharat Gohel resulted in Fiji's dismissal for a paltry 87 against Hong Kong, who won by seven wickets. Gibraltar were all out for 134 against the Dutch, who then launched an astonishing assault against the Gibraltarian bowling, reaching 137/2 from just 11 overs. Against Israel, the United States ran up 396/4 (Kamran Rasheed 143 not out, H Blackman 83, Shivnarine 66, K Lorick 50 not out) before Prabhudas took 4-34 as Israel slipped to 149 all out.30 June
Gibbons made 51 out of Bermuda's 217 against the Netherlands, who lost their last four wickets for 12 runs to lose by 30 runs (Lightbourne 4-44). Canada's openers Dipchand (105) and Prashad (129) shared an opening partnership of 233 as their country made 356/2; Fiji made 109 to lose by a mammoth 247 runs. Israel made a highly respectable 262 against Gibraltar, with Z Moshe making 77, Perlman 69 and S Nemblette 63, but P White's 5-48 for the Gibraltarians proved important; they won by three wickets with eight balls to spare thanks to five scores of between 35 and 49. Hong Kong's 257/8 (Brian Catton 63, Ray Brewster) against Papua New Guinea looked good, but 55 from Vai and 50 from Maha was enough to get PNG home by two wickets with two overs in hand.Final group tables

Bermuda v Zimbabwe
Bermuda batted first and fell to 41/3, but thereafter recovered somewhat to put up a reasonable total of 201/7 from their 60 overs. Gibbons held the innings together with 58, while number seven OW Jones added a useful unbeaten 35; Rawson (3-28) had the best bowling figures. In reply, however, Zimbabwe sailed to an ominously impressive ten-wicket triumph inside 39 overs, with Paterson cashing in for 123 not out while his batting partner Robin BrownRobin Brown (cricketer)

Denmark v Netherlands
Denmark were in difficulties at 62/4 early on against the Dutch, with Elferink claiming 3-28, but then a stand of 99 between J Morild (who was eventually run out for 86) and Henriksen (42) righted the ship and guided the Danes to 224/8. The Netherlands also had their own problems and were 96/4 at one stage, but their scorecard was dominated by Gomes. He made 127 not out, 56.4% of his team's total, as they overhauled their target with five wickets and 5.4 overs still remaining.Third-place play-off - 4 July - Bermuda v Denmark
Denmark won this consolation game easily. Batting first the Bermudians put on an opening stand of 51, but struggled badly thereafter against Henriksen (4-26) and Mortensen (3-29), losing five wickets for 24 runs. A partnership of 60 between captain Arnold Manders (45) and his namesake Andre (26) restored some respectability, but a further collapse followed with the last five wickets going down for 20 to leave Bermuda 155 all out. Their bowlers had some early success as they reduced Denmark to 17/2 and 50/3, but A From-Hansen's timely innings of 78 made sure of a six-wicket victory.Final - 7 July - Netherlands v Zimbabwe
The Netherlands won the toss and put Zimbabwe in to bat, the African team making 243/9 from their allotted overs, with Brown hitting 60 and future Test player Andy Waller 59. Lubbers' 3-44 from 11 overs kept the total down to a gettable one, and the Netherlands had reached 11 without loss in reply when the rains came. On the reserve day, the Dutch went well at first to reach 109/1 before disaster struck with five wickets falling for 30. Lubbers and Elferink tried to repair the damage with a defiant stand of 67, but it was too late and the Netherlands fell 25 runs short as Iain ButchartIain Butchart
