He also impressed against Lahore Qalandars' development side earlier in the month, scoring 132 runs in two matches. Although his fitness is a concern, he should be one to watch out for in this game.

Charles Amini (31 matches, 768 runs, Average: 24.00)

Charles Amini has been one of PNG's go-to players for quite a while now. Although he scored only 28 runs in two matches against the USA, Amini has fared better with the ball. With four wickets in his last three games, Amini could be a good pick in your PNG vs NAM Dream11 prediction team.

Assad Vala is in the midst of a good run of form, scoring over 100 runs and chipping in with key wickets in the last three matches. He averages nearly 30 with the bat in this format with eight 50-plus scores to his name. With the conditions suiting him as well, Vala is a must-have in your PNG vs NAM Dream11 prediction team.

Top Bowler Pick

Bernard Scholtz (22 matches, 29 wickets, Average: 19.41)

Bernard Scholtz is one of Namibia's best bowlers in this format, averaging just 20.92 with an economy of 3.58. He impressed against the USA, returning with figures of 3/5 and 3/19 in the two matches. With Scholtz likely to be the focal point of this attack at Amini Park, he is another top pick for your PNG vs NAM Dream11 prediction team.

PNG vs NAM match expert tips for CWC League-2 One Day Match

Namibia's pacers have not been used as much with Ruben Trumpelmann, in particular, bowling 10 overs across two matches. However, PNG's batters have seemingly struggled against left-arm pace in the past, with USA left-arm pacer Netravalkar picking up three wickets against them. With Trumpelmann capable of scoring quick runs too, he could be a game-changing selection in the PNG vs NAM game.
