USA was allowed to host their first ever ODI home series and after playing 4 games on the trot, Match 5 and 6 will be played between PNG and Namibia. So far, PNG lost both their games and are also at the bottom of the ICC Word Cricket League Division 2 table, with 6 losses in their 6 games this year.
Namibia on the other hand is coming off a victory against USA in their last game and they are strong favourites today as well. They have 1 win in 2 games here and overall in the league, 1 win in 2 games too, with a chance to climb the table here.

PNG
Two players I will definitely pick at the top of the PNG batting order are captain Assad Vala and one down batsman Tony Ura. Ura has been consistent over the months while Vala is their highest scorer in Div 2 this year, while also scoring 48 and 38 in two games against USA this series. While he hasn’t bowled much this series, he is usually among the wickets as well.
With the ball, Nosaina Pokana has 12 wickets in 6 games in the Div 2 and also has two consecutive 3-fers against USA here, so it’s a sin to leave him out. Another bowler who has two consecutive 3-fers against USA is Jason Kila and he’s a worthy fantasy pick while a lesser popular pick could be Charles Amini who will contribute with bat and ball both. Hiri Hiri may get the axe for this game.
Namibia
A major reason for Namibia beating USA in the last game was JP Kotze’s 136 and he’s definitely a part of my Nostragamus (sign-up with “READSCOOPS” for Rs.100 FREE) fantasy picks, having 153 runs in 2 games this series. It came as no surprise that he smashed that ton because he also scored 101* vs Botswana last month and 148 vs Hong Kong in April.
With the ball, the leader is Zhivago Groenewald and to be safe, have him in your fantasy team. He has 5/20 and 3/28 so far in this series and looks set to go on and increase this tally. Another bowling option could come in Pikky Ya France who bagged 2/31 plus 11* with the bat in his only game against USA. An all-round pick could come in Gerhard Erasmus, who hasn’t fulfilled his potential in this series so far.
