Thailand, Pakistan seal victories in final outing

Dubai, November 28, 2021 (PPI-OT):Thailand and Pakistan emerged as victors in the final outing at the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifiers, with the tournament called off amid Covid concerns. Due to the emergence of the latest Covid-19 variant in South Africa and the introduction of travel restrictions from a number of African countries, including the host country Zimbabwe, the ICC decided to call off the qualifying event on Saturday, 27 November.

The qualification slots were decided as per team rankings, in keeping with the tournament’s playing conditions, with Bangladesh, Pakistan and the West Indies progressing to the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in New Zealand, and Sri Lanka and Ireland occupying the other slots for the 2022-25 cycle of the ICC Women’s Championship.

USA v THAILAND – THAILAND WON BY 9 WICKETS

SCORECARD

Opting to bat first, things didn’t go USA’s plan as they would have planned. They got off to a shaky start, and kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Opener Mahika Kandalan (2) was the first batter to fall in the fifth over and that triggered a collapse.

Nattaya Boochatham, who starred with the ball for Thailand with 4/16, struck in the next over accounting for the wicket of USA captain Sindhu Sriharsha for 3.

Only three batters – Shebani Bhaskar (13 off 13), Lisa Ramjit (26 off 64) and Tara Norris (10 off 33) – scored in double digits as the rest of the line-up crumbled as Thailand bowled them out for 93.

Chasing a paltry target, Thailand made no mistakes. Openers Sornnarin Tippoch (29* from 46) and Natthakan Chantham (48 from 53) shared a solid 89-run stand. Chantham missed out of a fifty by two runs as she was bowled by Akshatha Rao.

Tippoch and Boochatham (2*) took the side across the line in the 17th over, sealing a convincing nine-wicket win.

PAKISTAN v ZIMBABWE – PAKISTAN WON BY 114 RUNS

SCORECARD

Sent in to bat, Pakistan got off to a steady start. Their openers – skipper Javeria Khan and Muneeba Ali – shared a half-century stand, laying a good foundation. Audrey Mazvishaya drew the first blood for Zimbabwe, sending Muneeba back for 19.

Pakistan lost Omaima Sohail soon for 5. Despite losing wickets from one end, Javeria remained firm at the crease. She shared crucial stands with Iram Javed (24), Nida Dar (17) and Aliya Riaz (48*) before she was run out by Esther Mbofana for a well-made 48.

Riaz and Fatima Sana’s unbeaten 36-run stand helped Pakistan finish their 50-overs quota on 195/6.

While defending, Pakistan bowlers kept the pressure on Zimbabwe batter from the get-go. They kept snaring wickets at regular intervals, giving no chance to Zimbabwe for a recovery.

Opener Sharne Mayers (18 off 16) and No.5 batter Ashley Day (17 off 32) were the only two batters to score in double digits. Pakistan wrapped up Zimbabwe innings in the 27th over for 81, sealing a big win.

Anam Amin (3/9) and Sadia Iqbal (3/4) led the onslaught while Fatima Sana and Omaima chipped in with two wickets apiece.

ROSEN, TOP RANKED GLOBAL COUNSEL, Encourages Höegh LNG Partners LP Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in First Filed Securities Class Action Commenced by the Firm – HMLP

NEW YORK, Nov. 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Höegh LNG Partners LP (NYSE: HMLP) between August 22, 2019 and July 27, 2021, inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important December 27, 2021 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action first filed by the firm.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Höegh securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Höegh class action, go to http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases-register-2140.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 27, 2021. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) Höegh LNG Partners LP (the “Partnership”) was facing issues with the PGN FSRU Lampung charter; (2) as a result, the PGN FSRU Lampung charterer would state that it would commence arbitration to declare the charter null and void, and/or to terminate the charter, and/or seek damages; (3) the Partnership would need to find alternative refinancing for its PGN FSRU Lampung credit facility; (4) the PGN FSRU Lampung credit facility matured in September 2021, not October 2021 as previously stated; (5) the Partnership would be forced to accept less favorable refinancing terms with regards to the PGN FSRU Lampung credit facility; (6) Höegh LNG would not extend the revolving credit line to the Partnership past its maturation date; (7) Höegh LNG would reveal that it “will have very limited capacity to extend any additional advances to the Partnership beyond what is currently drawn under the facility”; (8) as a result of the foregoing, the Partnership would essentially end distributions to common units holders; (9) the COVID-19 pandemic was not the sole or root cause of the Partnership’s issues in Indonesia, in 2019, before the pandemic, there were already a very low amount of demand in Indonesia for the Partnership’s gas; (10) the auditing, tax, nor maintenance of PGN FSRU Lampung were not the sole or root cause(s) of the Partnership’s issues in Indonesia; and (11) as a result, defendants’ statements about its business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
