What is the pitch report for PNG vs JPN, ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 East Asia Pacific Qualifier, Match 6?

The ball is holding a bit which is a good sign for the bowlers and the batters have to work extremely hard for their runs especially when they bat first. Since it’s a morning game, bowling first is a better option.

Pre-Match Analysis:

Papua New Guinea didn’t complicate things and easily got valuable 4 points from their first two matches. They beat Vanuatu by 9 wickets in their inaugural game and humbled Philippines by 117 runs in their next game. Batters had very little work to do as they restricted Vanuatu and Philippines to just 71 and 45 runs respectively. Their bowlers are hunting in a pack which is giving positive results for them. They occupy the pole position in the standings.

Japan are making steady progress at the International level and must play more than their abilities to beat inform PNG. An overall all-round display got them a flying start with 53 runs win over Philippines and repeated the same flow to their following game and thrashed Vanuatu in a low-scoring contest by 21 runs. Skipper Kendel Kadowaki Fleming looking in good form, scoring consecutive half-centuries and his performances will surely matter against PNG.
