Preview

Vanuatu will take on Japan in the ninth match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Asia Pacific Qualifier. This match will be played at Amini Park in Moresby. Vanuatu have lost all 4 matches and are placed bottom of the points table. They suffered a 39-run defeat against Papua New Guinea in the previous match and are struggling in all departments. They will look to give chances to the fringe players and look to put up a good outing in this match. 

Japan on the other hand, have three wins and a loss in four matches. They beat Phillipenes by 33 runs in the previous match. Their only loss has come against Papua New Guinea. They have an outside chance of qualifying if they win their last 2 matches with a good margin. This promises to be a closely fought game between these two sides and Japan are expected to win this match.

10.5

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8

Apolinaire Stephen

VAN | BAT

Apolinaire Stephen failed to make much of an impact in the opening match against PNG. With plenty of better options he can be left out.

9

Obed Yoseph

VAN | BOWL

Obed Yoseph went wicket less and was expensive in the opening match and might not feature in this game. Hence avoid him for this match.
