Ali Naseer says the pressure of having their World Cup dream dashed prematurely could yet bring out the best in the UAE, after their sorry start in Zimbabwe.

Two days after suffering a 175-run loss to Sri Lanka, the national team were beaten by Oman in their second match at the Cricket World Cup qualifier in Bulawayo.

The side from across the border claimed a comfortable five-wicket win with 24 balls still to spare at the Bulawayo Athletic Club.

It means the UAE are on the brink of elimination from the tournament, with first-round matches left against Scotland and Ireland remaining.
