11.10am And it is official. Defending champions Bangladesh are eliminated from the Asia Cup because the umpires have called off their game against UAE without a toss. The washed out match, however, has secured a semi-final spot for Thailand. How the top four line up, though, depends on the result of the Pakistan v Sri Lanka game in the afternoon.

Phoenix: "As a Bangladeshi supporter, that would make me very sad indeed but best wishes to Thailand for the semi finals. Looks like both the male and female teams of Bangladesh require jump-starting if possible somehow."

10.30am local Hello from Sylhet, and if you were a Bangladesh fan tuning in, the news isn't good from over here. The Bangladesh v UAE game hasn't yet started due to rain and if it continues this way, then Bangladesh will definitely be eliminated. They need a win and nothing else to climb to fourth, and as the points table would stand with a washout, Thailand would become the fourth team to confirm their semi spot, alongside India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
