Notes
--> Mazhar Hussain passed his previous highest score of 14 in World Cup matches
--> Saleem Raza made his debut in World Cup matches
--> NMK Smith made his debut in World Cup matches
--> NMK Smith achieved his best innings bowling analysis in ODI matches when he dismissed Arshad Laeeq in the United Arab Emirates innings (previous best was 2-46)
--> NMK Smith retired ill in the England innings having scored 27 (team score 59/1) (after vomiting on the field in the 13th over )

C White was unable to complete his second over (side strain), over completed by NMK Smith. White likely to be replaced for the rest of the tournament.
