SIN vs KUW Match Prediction, Asia Cup Qualifier 2022 – Who will win today’s match between Singapore and Kuwait?

Singapore will be locking horns with Kuwait in the fifth match of the Asia Cup Qualifier 2022 at the Al-Amerat Cricket Ground, Oman on Wednesday, August 24. Singapore’s performances have been forgettable as they have disappointed in both of their qualifier matches. Now, with the qualification hopes vanished, they would be hoping to sign off with a consolation win.

Singapore, who had come into this tournament on the back of underwhelming performances in the last few months, miserably failed to live up to the expectations with both the bat and ball. They first suffered an eight-run loss to Hong Kong in the opening fixture before going down to the United Arab Emirates by 47 runs.

Kuwait, on the other hand, have started on an impressive note with a hard-fought one-wicket win over an in-form UAE. They would now be eyeing a second straight win as the competition heats up and more importantly, deliver a knockout blow to an underfire Singapore. Just a couple of days after their victory over the United Arab Emirates, a determined Kuwait outfit would now be looking forward to showcasing much-improved batting and bowling performances.

SIN vs KUW Pitch Report

The wicket at Al Amerat is expected to be good for batting and the batters would be hoping to make merry on this track early on. A run-fest will be on once the batters are well set at the crease. While there is plenty of assistance on offer for the spinners, the pacers might find it difficult. Batting in the second innings seems to be relatively easier and therefore, the captain winning the toss will be bowling first.

SIN vs KUW Probable Top Performers

Probable best batter

Aritra Dutta

Singapore opener Aritra Dutta has been a good batter so far but has not succeeded in converting his good knocks into impactful scores. He was really impressive in the last game against the United Arab Emirates as he provided a good start for his side chasing a stiff target of 161. Dutta scored 42 runs off 29 deliveries at a striker rate of 144.83.

Probable best bowler

Janak Prakash

Singapore would be hoping Janak Prakash to showcase yet another consistent performance with the ball in hand. He was outstanding in the last game against the UAE where he bowled a good line and length to finish with a three-wicket haul. Janak finished with figures of 3/35 from his four overs. Janak would be expected to maintain the same amount of consistency against Kuwait.
