Pre-Match Analysis:

Argentina lacked application with the bat in their last 2 matches and lost badly against Panama and Bermuda by 53 runs and 110 runs respectively. Alejandro Ferguson is the only one who showed resistance, scoring 32 and 25. Skipper Hernan Fennell showed his ability with the ball picking up 4 scalps. They are the only side who are yet to win a game in this competition and must win their remaining 2 games to move to the further rounds. They sit at the bottom of the standings with no points.

Bahamas who triumphed in their 1st outing against Panama by 4 wickets, lost their plot against Cayman Islands in their following game and went down by 31 runs. They did well to bowl out the opposition for 125 runs however lack of application with the bat cost the match as they were held for just 94 runs at the end of 20 overs. Kervon Hinds sparkled with the ball, picking up 5 wickets. Marc Taylor didn’t get much support from the other end and was top-scored for the side with 35 runs. They have a good chance to make a comeback as they are facing struggling Argentina.
