called off, with only Api Leka's 51 not out staving off complete collapse. Argentina's 147 proved to be inadequate, Ferguson top scoring with 44, as East Africa won by five wickets with more than six overs in hand, Narendra Thakker making 44 not out. Bermuda's win over PNG was a one-sided affair, PNG losing their last four wickets for five runs to collapse to 90 all out and the Bermudians reaching 92/3 from a mere 23.2 overs. The game between Argentina and Papua New Guinea was curtailed by rain, the South Americans having reached an unconvincing 86/4 after 33 overs when play was called off. Match was ruined by the weather and there was no play at all between Bermuda and Singapore. Argentina lost wickets at regular intervals against Bermuda to make an inadequate 81 in their innings, future Scotland List A bowler Clarence Parfitt taking 3–16; their opponents raced to their target, for the loss of just one wicket, inside 16 overs. Singapore crawled to 131/5 from their full 60 overs, although East Africa took more than 52 overs to record a five-wicket win. East Africa's 94 all out (Winston Trott 3–8) fell well short of a competitive total and Winston Reid's undefeated 59 ensured a simple nine-wicket triumph for Bermuda. Papua New Guinea put up a good performance in the other match, making 174 despite 4–30 for Young Ken Sen and then reducing Singaporeans to 15/5, a position from which they never recovered; Singapore were eventually bowled out for a mere 87 to lose by 87 runs. Group B Canada proved too strong for Malaysia, Rasiah Ratnalingham's excellent analysis of 12–5–18–3 not enough to stop the Canadians winning by 44 runs thanks to 77 from Cecil Marshall and 4–33 from John Vaughan. A strong Denmark side overpowered Fiji, Ole Mortensen taking 4–15 from 12 overs in a Fijian total of just 89 which the Danes cruised past with almost 25 overs to spare; Henrik Mortensen made 52 not out. Bangladesh were in desperate trouble against Fiji after good bowling (Konrote 3–14 from nine overs) reduced them to 54/8, but their last two wickets added 49 and their final total of 103 proved to be enough as they won by 22 runs thanks to Ashraful Haque, who destroyed the Fijian line-up with a superb haul of 7–23, figures which would stand as the best return in the ICC Trophy
