Bermuda lose again

United Arab Emirates made quick work of knocking off Bermuda's 138 run total in the Island's fourth tour match, ending the game after 34.4 overs with only one wicket down.

The nine-wicket defeat for Bermuda came after the tourists were held to 138 for eight.

Bermuda, batting first, struggled to score runs, with number eight batsman Ryan Steede sharing the top scoring with 22. Opener Stephen Outerbridge followed up his 40 in the previous match with 20 while Daniel Morgan, batting for Saleem Mukkudem, matched Steede's 22.

Dean Minors, batting at number 6, steadied the middle order with 21 after Irving Romaine and Janeiro Tucker were out for eight apiece.

Lionel Cann, who opened the innings with Outerbridge, was out for five.

If there was a silver lining anywhere in the low score, it was the increasing confidence of Outerbridge and the fact Bermuda batted out the full 50 overs.
