The United Arab Emirates (UAE) retired the entire team in the Women’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier. On Saturday, the UAE scored 192 runs in 16 overs against Qatar at the Tradthi Cricket Ground in Bangkok. But when the team felt that there was a possibility of rain, it retired his entire team out.
The rule of declaring the innings in the T20 International match does not apply. So openers pilgrim Satish and captain Isha Rohit Ojha informed the umpire and went towards their pavilion. The team did not play the remaining 4 overs.

192 runs was enough for Qatar

The two together shared a 192 -run partnership. In such a situation, the team felt this score is enough for Qatar and it happened because Qatar was all out for 29 runs in 11.1 overs. Isha also took a wicket in bowling and was the player of the match.
