Canada beat Denmark to maintain their 100% record in the CWC Challenge League Group A tournament in Kuala Lumpur.

Denmark’s target was revised to 221 from 33 overs after a rain delay. They were in a promising position at 101/1 after 25 overs but then 3 wickets apiece from Dutta and Saad Bin Zafar halted their progress, and they finished on 172/9.
