Wow, we're through to the qualifier! Not very convincingly though. Batting was pretty bad on a good pitch, a rare sight from Shakib who took a bit too many balls to get going. Thankfully the skip came up with a timely ton. Bowlers were outstanding, great stuff from Taylor and Patel.

A big game against a big team next up and we're high on confidence, so let's see what happens. :)
