UAE Women's team collapsed from 192/0 after 16 overs to 192 all out after 16 overs. Full details inside

The ICC Women's T20 World Cup Asia region qualifier match between UAE and Qatar in Thailand's Bangkok witnessed a weird incident. 

United Arab Emirates opted to bat first and smashed 192 runs without losing a wicket in 16 overs. India-born Esha Oza scored 113 off just 55 balls. Her opening partner Theertha Satish made 74. At that point, rain was believed to be the bigger threat than the opponents from stopping UAE's victory.

Ahmed Raza, the former UAE international and the current head coach of the women's team, and the team management decided to retire out all batters at that moment, so that they could bowl to Qatar before the arrival of rain.
