Before the match goes live, here is a look at the dream11 predictions, fantasy tips, pitch report, the top player picks, expert’s fantasy advice and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
This will be the first T20I match between West Indies and Papua New Guinea.
The wicket at the Providence stadium will be difficult for batting. Spectators should not expect 180 plus totals on this wicket. The pitch will keep getting slower with the progress of the match and spinners might play a big role in the game.

Highest score: 191/5 by England
Lowest score: 68/10 by Ireland
Given the strength of the West Indian T20I side, it is expected that they will win this game comfortably. So, a 7-4, 8-3 or a 9-2 combination in favour of the West Indian players will be the best strategy for the match.
Given the strength and experience of the two teams, West Indies are the favourites to win the match one-sided.
Johnson Charles will be opening the innings for West Indies. Given the strength of the PNG bowling, his explosive batting could earn you plenty of points in the game.
The keeper-batter has been in a decent form with the bat. Nicholas Pooran is a good player of spin and can win this game single handedly with his power hitting abilities.
The West Indian pacer has not been in the best of forms recently. However, his pace can be a serious concern for the PNG batters and he can run through their batting line-up.
This left-arm spinner is a match-winner and is often seen opening the bowling for West Indies in T20Is. Akeal Hosein could prove to be too tough to handle for the PNG batters on a slowish track.
The PNG skipper is a must-pick for this match. Assad Vala can make contributions with both the bat and the ball and looks like the only player you can select from PNG team, if you are going for a 10-1 approach in favour of the West Indian players.
West Indies enjoy playing the T20 format of the game and they have a great side for this World Cup. It is expected that they will outclass PNG in this game and take away a one-side win. So, keep for West Indian players in your fantasy XI.
