Following a convincing 6 wicket rout of the Japan National Men’s Cricket Team on Tuesday, the Kumul Petroleum Holdings Limited PNG Barramundis Coach, Nathan Reardon is adamant that they still need to be on their toes to seal the deal in the final matches of their East Asia Pacific T20 World Cup Qualification campaign.
The Barras once again proved to be unstoppable in their defeat of Japan, with Semo Kamea taking the player of the match following his heroics with the ball, with 2 wickets for 17 runs.
“Look we’re 3 from 3 and as I’ve said we’ve still got one or two games to win before we qualify.” “I still think T20 sides are the most dangerous when they’ve got nothing to lose.”
“I think we’ll see a different Vanuatu side, a different Philippines side.”
He said they still have a strong side and is happy with the way they are performing now, but they still got a lot of work to do, mentioning that the Barras are aware of this as well.
Captain Assadollah Vala added that even though they were not playing up to the standards that they expect themselves to, coming away with the win yesterday is a good confidence builder for the team.
He added that about their recent performance with the bat, they have not spoken about it as a group yet, adding that they will need to talk about how they can go about fine tuning themselves for the remaining matches.
