WI vs PNG Key Players

Charles Amini

Guyana is expected to keep slow. PNG though look like they only have one spinner in their ranks and that is where Charles Amini will have to make an impact. He is a handy batter as well and his all-round abilities will be key.

Nicholas Pooran

Nicholas Pooran has been in fine six hitting form this year. He was at his best in the IPL and is off to a good start in the World Cup Warm-ups as well.

WI vs PNG Match Tips

West Indies are the in-form side and the bigger side and they start as clear favorites.
