Player Picks
Nicholas Pooran WI | WK
The West Indian batter has been in prime form and his breezy knock against Australia in the warm up match was enough evidence as to why Pooran is one of the most dangerous batters in this format.
Assad Vala PNG | ALL
Assad Vala is one of the most experienced and the most noted players from the PNG team. The 36-year-old has scored over 1200 runs with the bat and also picked 34 wickets with the ball.
Brandon King WI | BAT
West Indian opener Brandon King has been giving his side amazing starts with the bat in recent games and his overall T20 game has also improved leaps and bounds. King was in good form during the recent series against South Africa and will look to impose himself against the PNG attack.
Tony Ura PNG | WK
The veteran PNG opener is their best batter and also has a T20 ton to his name with over 1600 runs in his career. PNG will hope that Tony Ura can strike some lusty blows and take the fight to the West Indian bowlers.
Andre Russell WI | ALL
West Indian all-rounder Andre Russell has been at the top of his game with the bat and ball as seen during the IPL 2024 campaign with KKR. The Jamaican will hope to add one more T20 World Cup title to his name in front of his home fans.
Sese Bau PNG | BAT
The 31-year-old all-rounder is a more than decent batter and a competent bowler with the ability to take wickets in the middle overs. Bau will be a key player for PNG in the upcoming tournament.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Akeal Hosein
WI | BOWL
Despite having a huge pedigree for his bowling, Akeal Hossein hasn't been in the form that he normally carries and this could be a massive concern for the home team.
Hiri Hiri
PNG | BAT
The 29-year-old batter has managed to score just 44 runs from his 4 innings and has been struggling for form in the T20 format.
