Here are the Fantasy Cricket Predictions and Betting Tips for ICC T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier A matches to be played on the 10th of June at the Roma Cricket Ground and Simar Cricket Ground, Rome, Italy
Points Table
Match 5- Israel v Austria (Roma Cricket Ground, Rome)
Current Form Israel:
Israel haven’t earned a rating in the ICC Men’s T20 Team Rankings.
They are not in great form in T20I cricket currently, having won only 1 match out of their last 6 completed fixtures. Their recent win came against Hungary, as they trumped the European nation by 12 runs.
Israel don’t have bright chances to make it to the Tournament’s Final.
Players to look out for:
1. Eshkol Solomon – He is a talented top order player who has been quite consistent over the last few matches for Israel. He is expected to be Israel’s top run scorer in the Qualifiers.
2. Tomer Kahamker– He is a highly skilled bowler who doesn’t give away freebies and focuses on perfect lines and lengths to the batters. He will play a key role for Israel in Qualifiers with the ball.
Current Form Austria:
Austria are currently placed at the 3rd position in Group B points table with 1 loss to their credit.
The top run scorer for Austria in the Qualifiers is Karanbir Singh with 97 runs to his name.
The top wicket taker for Austria in the Qualifiers is Waqar Zalmai with 3 scalps under his belt.
Austria have lost their first match of the tournament against Romania by 3 wickets.
Austria batted first and they posted a total of 169 before being bowled out. Apart from Karanbir Singh, who played like a champion and scored 97 important runs for his team, the other batters failed miserably and couldn’t really capitalise on the effort he did. As a result, Austria had to settle for 169 before being bowled out.
During the chase, Romania lost their key batter Mohammad Moiz early on. Vasu Saini then acted like an anchor and steered Romania through. He scored 64 runs off 45 balls. The cameo of 23 runs in 10 balls by Rameez Khan made all the difference. He ensured he took his team home without any hassles as they won the match by 3 wickets.
Let’s have a look at the squads:
Austria
Armaan Randhawa, Karanbir Singh, Zeshan Arif, Abdullah Akbarjan, Aqib Iqbal, Baseer Khan, Bilal Zalmai, Imran Asif, Kumud Jha, Shadnan Khan, Abrar Bilal (wk), Amar Naeem (wk), Arsalan Arif (wk), Mehar Cheema (wk), Adeel Tariq, Itibarshah Deedar, Umair Tariq, Waqar Zalmai
