Canada and PNG are set to lock horns in the 15th match of the Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off at the United Cricket Club Ground in Windhoek on Wednesday, April 5.
Canada, led by Saad Bin Zafar, were cruising after beating Jersey and the United States of America (USA) in their first two matches. They looked like one of the strongest contenders to finish in the top two.
However, two losses on the trot meant that they dropped to fourth in the table. They not only need to beat PNG, but secure a win by a big margin to improve their net run rate and break back into the top two.
Trending
PNG, on the other hand, have struggled throughout the tournament, despite batters playing their hearts out. Having lost all four of their games, PNG are placed at the bottom of the table.
They will go into the match after losing to the USA by 117 runs. Semo Kamea picked up three wickets and helped PNG restrict their opponents to 235/7. Skipper Vala scored 42 runs, but PNG were bowled out for 118 in 34.5 overs.
