Sri Lanka 1/10
Nepal 11/2
Suggested Bet: Player of the Match Wanindu Hasaranga at 21/4
The skipper has made a nightmare start with the bat with a pair of ducks but he has taken 4 wickets in 2 games and if he comes right with the bat he can be a big runner for Player of the Match.
AUSTRALIA v NAMIBIA
This match will take place at Sir Vivien Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua. It will be the third match for both of these sides.
Australia have won both their matches and are 2nd in their group behind Scotland who are 1 point ahead of them.

Namibia are sitting in third place in their group 2 points behind Australia. Their first match was against Oman where they both tied on 109 runs resulting in them having to play the Super Over which Namibia won.

Australia 1/100
Namibia 15/1
Suggested Bet: Namibia Top Bat David Wiese at 46/10
Wiese was player of the match in their opening victory and we get a good price as he comes in down the order. I expect Australia to be amongst the wickets early so reckon we get a run for our money.
