*STOP NOWHERE*
This is just absolutely uninteresting for a lot of people. Because both of the teams are absolutely made out of foreign players. Basically no native players in the team for both of them. It would have been interesting if this was a close match. But the match was not even that close. I know that ICC is expecting a lot from the USA. But the performance of the USA team basically reassures that they are not going to be having too much success. I know that Canada is a better team compared to the USA. But this was a good chance for the USA to prove themselves.
Teams such as the United States of America and United Arab Emirates are given preferential treatment by the ICC. The global body tries hard to get them included in the ICC tournaments. For the 2024 T20 World Cup, the ICC has provided USA with direct qualification. But all this bias in their favor hasn't done them any good. Cricket remains almost unknown among the natives, and the performance of these two teams hasn't improved despite additional funds from the ICC and a massive influx of foreign players.

I cannot agree that USA and UAE's performance is not improving. I didn't know the USA team a few years ago. But this group is now known worldwide. Maybe their performance is not stable yet, but I think this team will be stable gradually. The UAE team also has several talented players. However, their performances are not regular as the players are not experienced enough. These two teams are getting a lot of benefits from the ICC, and it is expected that the performances of these two teams will be more stable in the next few years.

An impressive bowling performance from USA, helps to restrict Canada under 200 runs. In response, things didn't go as planned for USA batters, because of falling wickets at regular intervals. Despite some valiant efforts from USA batsmen, Canada's disciplined bowling help them secure a victory by 26 runs. It was a low scoring match, but both teams putting up a tough fight. So, Canada's consistent performance helped them clinch their second consecutive win in ICC Cricket World Cup qualifiers, while USA team failed.
USA lost a match they should have won. If they can't chase down a target of 199, and that too against a weak team such as Canada, how they are going to perform while playing against the full members? And the ICC want to provide them with direct qualification to the 2024 World Cup. I wasn't much interested in the match, because USA team was comprised of 100% foreigners, and the Canada squad had only one native player (Matthew Spoors). But at this point, Canada is at the top of the table, with 4 points from two matches. They won against Jersey in their inaugural match.

It is not a surprise as every team that chased failed to chase down the score in this ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play off. Lowest happened to be in this match but Canada defended against Jersey as well and even the odds makers were suggesting that Jersey would win easily as they were 117 for the loss of 1 wicket at one point chasing 238 runs and they were all out for 207 and cashed out at a loss when they lost their 6th wicket.

That's unexpected USA lost the match,  on 117 runs they have 5 wickets in hand and on 177 they lost all of them. This is some disappointing batting by them, Canadian ballers definitely nailed in this department specially boys like kaleem sana and Saad bin zaffar who took 3 3 wickets and earn this victory for Canada.

Well.. you can't expect the lower order to score one-third of the runs, right? The US team contained several players, with first class experience in test nations, such as Monank Patel (former Gujarat player), Aaron Jones (Barbados), Gajanand Singh (Guyana) and Saurabh Netravalkar (Mumbai). Despite that they lost the match in such a disappointing manner. Canada team on the other hand had hardly any experienced players. Even the captain Saad Bin Zafar hasn't played a lot of matches for Canada. This was his 2nd ODI.

Canada collected 146 runs at the end of 40 overs. Giving a target like 220 will make the match competitive. The USA team cannot be called weak. Their batting was good enough against Namibia. The USA scored 232 runs. If Canada sets a target of less than 200 in today's match, the USA will have a better chance of winning.
That is really a great move with only remaining 4 wickets. Now Canada has made 198 runs and gave the target of 199 runs to USA team. And I think this target is also little bit difficult to chase by the USA team. Because Canada team will try to their best to bowl well and try to collect more wickets. And by doing this the Canadian team can win the match easily.  But USA will also try best we can't underestimate the both teams at this time.
Canada batting was not up to the mark USA is chasing target very smoothly,  at 33 overs they have made 117 runs on loss of 5 wickets .
Now they just need 80 runs in 17 overs which is easy one  USA I'd going to win this match.
USA batting and bowling wad good today .
The game between Canada vs United States players is quite intense. Canada batted first and set a target of 198 runs in 49.2 balls. Canada batsman Aaron Johnson was out for 47 runs off 52 balls. If Aaron Johnson could have scored 3 more runs, his 50  Run would have been completed. United States is now batting.  110 runs scored in 32.4 overs. United States has lost 5 wickets so far. United States team needs 89 runs to win.

Namibia set a target of 382 runs. I would say it was a totally unexpected score. I never imagined that a team like Namibia would score 381 runs. In the last match, the Namibia team scored only 151 runs against the USA. They lost the match by 80 runs. Namibia batted brilliantly in the last 5 overs in today's match. Their collection was 72 runs in the last 5 overs. Thus if Namibia is able to perform in the earlier matches then they can be at the top of the table. In today's match, I predict Namibia to win by at least 150 runs.
Another high scoring game but this times its ODI. After Namibia set target of 382 I was not expecting a strong fight from PNG but they manage to score 333 runs in 46.2 overs. If they have few wikcets left towards the end of game they would have gone to win the game. Charles Amini of PNG score a century in just 66 balls that include 8 sixes and 8 fours.
Canada recorded there 2 win in the tournament and they are now at number one position. Its second time Canada fail to give big target but there bowing is strong enough to defend a low score.

I didn't expect teams like Namibia and Papua New Guinea to score more than 300 runs. When Namibia scored a huge total of 381, I thought they would win easily, but PNG managed to score 333 runs in today's match. And they collected 333 runs in 46.2 overs. If they didn't lose wickets too quickly and batted 50 overs, maybe PNG could have won the match. It was a very competitive and enjoyable match.

The USA won the first match against Namibia but failed to win against Canada. Canada set a target of just 199 runs. Opener Sushant Modani top scored for the USA with 64 runs. Besides, no batsman can stay at the crease for long. Canada now tops the table with two wins from two matches. The USA is second in the table.

More than 700 runs were scored today in the ODI match between Namibia and Papua New Guinea. In the end, however Namibia managed to win by 48 runs. Batting first, Namibia made a total of close to 400, with Gerhard Erasmus, Nikolaas Davin and Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton contributing significantly. In return, Papua New Guinea was on the target until they lost Assad Vala. At that point, they were at 282/4 after 37 overs, and they required exactly 100 runs from 13 overs. It was very much achievable at that stage.

Although the target was low, the match turned out to be competitive. Because they lost wickets very quickly. They lost the first wicket by just 1 run. And they lost their second wicket by 20 runs. So USA's batting has become slow. At the end of 20 overs, USA's collection was only 65/3. The USA still need 134 runs to win. The pitch does not look batting friendly. It is very difficult for batsmen to survive at the crease. And so it became challenging for the USA to score 134 runs to win the match. I think Team Canada will win today. Because their bowling is very controlled today.

Canada is playing now and the performance is really bad Canada has lost 6 wickets and made only 98 runs in 27 overs. And the Current Run Rate is 3.62. And if we see the progress so I am little bit sure that the Canadian team will not cross the 150 runs. And this will not a big target for USA team. If they will play wisely. By the way let see what will happen?

Namibia's batting against PNG surprised me. Namibian batsmen managed to collect 309 runs in 45 overs. Nikolaas Davin scored 90 runs off 79 balls and Erasmus was able to score 125 runs. Perhaps today Namibia will be able to deliver a target of 330. This is enough collection to win against PNG. The Namibia team will win today by a big margin.

@pakhittheboss what odds are you seeing for Srilanka, because I’m expecting really good odds for them as New Zealand will obviously be the favourites and thus was thinking of taking a risk and wagering on Srilanka if the odds are decent.

Kiwis are favourite to win the last ODI. I do not think Srilankan team would be able to defeat them. Almost every kiwi batter is back in form and since it is thier homeground it is natural for bowlers to perform well.

If you still want to take that odd risk then I think you should. As in the past Srilanka did some extra ordinary bowling and batting if I keep in my mind the last Asia cup. Although the format and the ground was different still they might outperform their performance in Newzealand

In this tour Sri Lanka didn't show any positive attitude towards the performance. They have not shown their dominance in either the Test or ODI formats and there is confusion about whether they will be able to do well in the coming days as well. In the 3rd and last ODI of the series, if their match is called off due to rain, they will still lose the series and if they come back with a good performance in that match and win, the series will end with a draw. But I am not expecting anything good from Sri Lanka in this ODI series.
The Sri Lankan team conceded a humiliating defeat in the first match. Setting the New Zealand team a target of 275, the Sri Lankan team lost all wickets in just 19.5 overs and managed to muster just 76 runs. New Zealand won by 198 runs. The second match was abandoned due to rain. The third match is also likely to be abandoned. The match will be held in Hamilton. And the weather is not very good. Perhaps this match may also be declared abandoned. But even if the match takes place, I think Sri Lanka will lose badly. Because the state of their party is very bad now. Batsmen are not in good form. They do not have the ability to win against a team like New Zealand.

I will say that as Sri Lanka lost the first match horribly, the second match not being played at all has been actually good for them. Because going into the third match, Sri Lanka will actually be able to potentially get a draw from this series if they win the third match. I personally don't think they will actually be able to win the third match.

But it still potentially gives them a good chance. Sri Lanka will have to do a lot better in the batting department if they want to actually win the last match. But as you said, the weather does not look good. So there is a chance of that match being abandoned.
