Adam Cassidy, Regional Project Officer, East Asia Pacific International Cricket Council, reports from the United Arab Emirates:
If you haven’t heard PNG comfortably beat Ireland in their final warm up match before the World T20 Qualifiers begin tomorrow in the UAE. Shocked everyone over here. A top 6 finish out of the 16 teams and they make it.
Suddenly a real possibility.
I made this short promo video to pump up the event. Come on PNG!

How good would it be to see PNG in the T20 World Cup. They’re well on their way, great wins over Kenya and the Netherlands in their first two games. Would be great for the game to have another decent team in our region. Go PNG!
6/167 off their 20 overs in tonights match against Afghanistan. Big chance again.
