I have updated the list of eliminations (and yes, I went back and recalculated when teams could no longer reach the new qualification mark) but rather than post it all out again, I've just put it in one blogpost.

Jim Maxwell will go down as one of the greatest commentators to grace Australian sport when all is said and done.
But someone at the ABC needs to sit down with Jim and tell him it's time to retire. He's getting worse with every passing game and isn't up to it any more. #AUSvBAN

It is utterly baffling to me that following the Laws of the game is perceived as being contrary to the much-lauded Spirit of the same game
If the number three isn't ready for the second ball of the innings then they should be out. Pathetic for CAN to apologise too. Back your players!
Bhutan's Ritshi Choden became the first batter to be timed out in women's international cricket.
The Cricket Association of Nepal apologised for the decision, saying while the dismissal was within the laws, it did not reflect the "spirit of the game"
