Pitch Report
A good batting track is on offer at the Al Amerat Ground with help available for the bowlers as well. There should be ample movement on offer for the pacers, keeping the batsmen on their toes. The batters will look to bide their time in the middle before going big, but the spinners will pose a threat in the middle overs. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 230 being a good total at the venue.
Today’s PNG vs NEP Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Tony Ura: Although Tony Ura is one of PNG's best bets with the bat, he hasn't been in the best of form in recent weeks. Given his ability to provide fast starts at the top of the order, Ura is one to watch out for in this game.
Batsman
Rohit Paudel: Rohit Paudel came up with a good knock in the previous game against PNG to guide Nepal to a good win. With the youngster in good form, Paudel should be a popular pick for most fantasy teams.
All-rounder
Assad Vala: Assad Vala is PNG's best batsman, with his recent form also being decent. Apart from his batting talents, Vala can turn it up with the ball too, making for a good addition to your NEP vs PNG Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Sandeep Lamichhane: Sandeep Lamichhane came up with a sensational spell in the first ODI as he led Nepal to a win. His leg-spin is highly valued all over the world and should prove to be too good for the PNG batsmen, who are in for a stern test at the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium.
