Nostragamus: CWC Challenge 2019 – MAL vs QAT Fantasy Preview

The CWC Challenge 2019 began a few days back and today, we have another 2 games lined up including one other which starts at the same time between Denmark and Vanuatu. 6 teams are participating in this Group A tournament but only 1 will progress to the CWC Challenge Playoffs. Now in Match 7, we have hosts Malaysia taking on Qatar at the Kinrara Oval, where all the games are being played.

Remember, these two teams played each other in the ICC World T20 Asia Final in July and Qatar won that game by 4 wickets, ending a last over thriller with 2 balls to spare. Malaysia will want to avenge that loss and you can keep reading for our complete Nostragamus (sign-up with “READSCOOPS” for Rs.100 FREE) fantasy tips of the MAL vs QAT game…

Numbers

  • In 5 completed games so far, 4 have been won batting first.
  • Suharril Fetri – 85 runs, 5 wickets in 2 games so far.
  • Iqbal Hussain – hasn’t gone wicketless in last 8 games for Qatar.

Malaysia

They’ve played 2 games so far and you can get an idea of who you should pick. Suharril Fetri is someone you can even pick as your captain or vice-captain as the guy has performed with both bat and ball. With a top score of 64*, he is their leading run scorer and with a best of 3/82, he is also their top wicket-taker so far. The team is captained by batsman Ahmad Faiz who scored 41 in the last game after a duck in the first game.

20-year old Virandeep Singh has scored of 46 and 35 so far and he is another good option with the bat. While he only bowled 1 over in this tournament, Singh picked 2 wickets and scored 49 in his last T20I who was also against Qatar. He even has a T20I fifty to his name. Syed Aziz is another genuine all-rounder you can’t miss. He has 18 runs and 2 wickets so far, but is capable of much more.

Qatar

These associate nations usually name their best player as captain and Iqbal Hussain is easily their best too, contributing with both bat and ball. He has picked up 22 wickets in his last 10 games for Qatar, also scoring runs when needed; he scored 23* in the last game. Zaheer Ibrahim top scored in that game with 63 but prior to that, only had 2 double-digit scores in his last 9 games.

Khurram Shahzad is another person I would want in my Nostragamus (sign-up with “READSCOOPS” for Rs.100 FREE) fantasy picks as he scored 44 and even bowled in the last game; he has a score of 94 in 2017 for Qatar as well. With the ball, Gayan Munaweera bagged 5/39 in the last game and he even picked 2/31 when Qatar played Malaysia in a T20I in July.
