Afghanistan won the tournament, with Uganda coming in second. Both teams qualified for the 2011 World Cup qualification tournament. Afghanistan and Uganda each won four matches and lost one, as did Papua New Guinea; the rankings tie was broken by net run rate.
Papua New Guinea were the first to reach four wins, as Afghanistan and Uganda both had their fifth matches abandoned due to rain and had to replay them the next day. The rain also resulted in the cancellation of the finals round ranking matches (which would not affect promotion or relegation in any case), and the group round result table was the final standings.
Teams
The six teams for the tournament had been decided according to the results of Division Two and Division Three in 2007, and Division Four in 2008, and were as follows:
- Uganda (5th from 2007 Division Two)
- Argentina (6th from 2007 Division Two)
- Papua New Guinea (3rd from 2007 Division Three)
- Cayman Islands (4th from 2007 Division Three)
- Afghanistan (1st from 2008 Division Four)
- Hong Kong (2nd from 2008 Division Four)
The top two teams from this tournament qualified to play in the 2009 ICC World Cup Qualifier in South Africa.
