Papua New Guinea will take on Scotland in the first match of the ICC Men’s CWC League 2 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai on Saturday.
With only one win in 16 league matches, Papua New Guinea are at the bottom of the standings and have to pull up their socks at any cost. They lost their match against Nepal in the previous game and failed to defend a score of 173. Assad Vala and Chad Soper will be the key players for the side.
Meanwhile, Scotland are in the third position in the points table as things stand. They have won seven of their 12 matches and are coming off a win over Papua New Guinea in their last encounter. Hamza Tahir and Kyle Coetzer have been in impressive form for them.
