Japan vs Cook Islands 2025: Full schedule, squads, match timings, and live-streaming details

The Japan Cricket Association (JCA) is all set to host a thrilling T20 series between the host nation and the Cook Islands at the Sano International Cricket Ground in Sano. The three-match T20 Series will commence on May 13 (Tuesday) and conclude on May 15 (Thursday).

Both teams, along with Thailand, recently featured in a tri-series. Hosts Japan registered a comfortable 34-run victory over the Cook Islands in their first encounter. However, the next fixture between the teams was abandoned due to rain.

Japan finished as runners-up in the series after losing to Thailand in the final. Sabaorish Ravichandran emerged as the top performer for Japan with both bat and ball, finishing the series with 64 runs and taking five wickets.

Cook Islands, on the other hand, finished third in the points table after losing two of their three games in the group stage. Thomas Parima top-scored for the team with the bat, scoring 49 runs in three games at an average of 16 and a strike rate of 90.

Oscar Taylor led the bowling attack and picked up four wickets in three games. The Cook Islands will look to turn things around against Japan after a disappointing show in the tri-series.
