West Indies are favourites to win
West Indies will take on PNG in the Plate Quarter Quarter Final of the Under-19 World Cup. This 50-over match will be played at the Diego Martin Sporting Complex, Trinidad and Tobago on January 26 starting at 09:00 local time.
West Indies finished in 3rd place in Group D after losing to Australia and Sri Lanka with their solitary victory coming against Scotland. This was disappointing for the hosts who finished in 5th place overall in 2020 and had hopes of going all the way in this tournament. They have not been able to score enough runs with no batter scoring more than 57 in any innings. With the ball, right-arm medium pacer Shiva Sankar has stood out with 5 wickets but he only picked up 1 wicket in both games against the stronger sides.
PNG have looked out of their depth in the 2022 Under-19 World Cup and have been well beaten in all three of their Group C games. They lost by 228 runs to Zimbabwe, 135 runs to Afghanistan and 9 wickets to Pakistan.Their best performance came against Afghanistan when they bowled out their opponents for 200 in 38.2 overs with Katenalaki Singi ending with figures of 4-18. With the bat, they have not yet reached 100 in an innings and the highest individual score is 15.
The match will be played at the Diego Martin Sporting Complex, Trinidad and Tobago. As with many pitches in this tournament, slow left-arm spinners have enjoyed bowling on the surface.
