Commentary
  • That is it from us. So Papua New Guinea have qualified for the 2020 T20 World Cup. Now you can join us for the next match between Kenya and Namibia. Take care and goodbye.
  • Papua New Guinea skipper Assad Vala says it has been a brilliant performance from the boys. Adds they got a good score on the board and the bowlers did well to defend it. Finishes by saying they are happy with their performance.
  • Singapore captain Amjad Mahboob says credit goes to Papua New Guinea because they bowled and batted well. Adds they should have done better than this and would look to improve in future.
  • Man of the Match is Damien Ravu for his outstanding bowling performance of 4/18.
  • On the other hand, Singapore were very poor with the ball. Their batsmen also did not apply themselves and that caused their downfall. They lacked fight and intent also. Only Tim David was the top scorer for them with 44.
  • What a performance by Papua New Guinea. They have qualifed for the 2020 T20 World Cup. It has been an all-round performace from them. They have been clinical in all departments. Their batting was outstanding as Charles Amini and Kiplin Doriga's partnership proved to be crucial.
