Match 2 in Group B of the European Cricket Championship will see Portugal take on Hungary at the Cartama Oval in Cartama on Monday.

Hungary come into the tournament as the lowest-ranked team in the T20 rankings but with ample ECS experience, they should have a fair idea of how the T10 format works. They will come across a decent Portugal side who boast a good mix of experience and youth in their squad. With both teams looking to get their campaign off on the right note, a cracking game beckons at the Cartama Oval.
