GROUP B

In Amstelveen, Jersey comfortably chased down Spain’s total in the morning fixture, before dispatching a determined Isle of Man side looking to capitalise on their victory from the previous afternoon. In the other group matches, Finland suffered defeat twice in a row. In the first match against Belgium, defeat came with the penultimate ball of the innings, leaving Finland to rue their first innings collapse which saw the loss of 8 wickets in just 16 balls. In the afternoon game, Italy proved too strong for the Finns and successfully defended their total of 147.

Jersey 93/0 (14.4 overs) defeat Spain 92/8 (20 overs) by 10 wickets
Belgium 125/7 (19.5 overs) defeat Finland 122 all out (19.4 overs) by 3 wickets
Jersey 156/4 (20 overs) defeat Isle of Man 102 all out (18.2 overs) by 54 runs
Italy 147/2 (20 overs) defeat Finland 91 all out (18.5 overs) by 56 runs

GROUP C

Despite determined batting from the Israel team which saw them twice bat out their overs in full, Guernsey and Sweden proved too much and both secured wins against the Israelis. Over at VOC, Norway chased down Czech Republic’s total of 41 in a morning match that was reduced to 9 overs due to a wet pitch from the night’s rainfall. Norway then repeated the feat against Gibraltar, first restricting them to 58 and then chasing down the total within 10 overs. Today’s results leave Group C clearly divided, with three teams battling it out for the top two spots all on equal points, whilst the other three sides will each be hoping to record a first victory in their coming fixtures.

Guernsey 80/3 (15.1 overs) defeat Israel 79/8 (20 overs) by 7 wickets
Norway 42/0 (5.2 overs) defeat Czech Republic 41/9 (9 overs) by 10 wickets
Sweden 142/8 (20 overs) defeat Israel 102/8 (20 overs) by 40 runs
Norway 62/2 (9.1 overs) defeat Gibraltar 58 all out (18.2 overs) by 8 wickets
