UAE will play against PNG in today's ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off match. Compared to PNG, the UAE team is quite strong. The UAE team has several talented players. Their batting line-up is stronger than PNG's. But their performance is erratic. In the last match, the UAE team scored 310 runs against Nepal, but still, they could not win the match. But PNG is not a strong team. If the batsmen of UAE do not bat very badly, then there is no possibility of UAE losing this match. And I think the UAE team will be able to top the points table.
There are two ODIs going on at the moment as part of ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off. Canada is playing with Jersey (until now to my knowledge Jersey is a state in USA). After winning the toss Jersey decided to bowl fast and in 28th over half of Canada team is back to pavilion with just 128 runs on the board. Jersey will have a bright chance to win this game if they can limit Canada under 200.
PNG once again on top against UAE as Chad Soper has picked 4 Wickets. PNG was last in recent ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 but there performance against UAE was impressive.
UAE mustered only 110 runs in 25 overs. They lost 5 wickets. The team is not playing well. Their batsmen have lost form. And if UAE gives a target of less than 200 today, their chances of winning are slim. However, the PNG team is weak. It is not possible to predict the performance of this team. Even then, UAE needs to collect 200 runs today if they want to stay in the safe zone.
In the Canada vs Jersey match, I consider Canada as the favorite. Because even though Team Canada is weak now, this country has long been associated with cricket. Canada collects 145/5 in 33 overs. I can't call it a bad collection. I have no idea about the performance of the jersey. However, I expect Canada to win this match.
