Bangladesh need to win and win well against Papua New Guinea in their final Group Stage match to progress to the Super 12s. Join The Roar for live scores from 9pm (AEDT).

Ahead of the tournament, the Tigers were the favourites by far to top their group in the first phase of the competition, and qualify through to the Super 12s.

But a stumble against Scotland in their opening match meant things have now got more challenging. With Scotland then picking up another win against Papua New Guinea, they top the group, with Oman and Bangladesh sitting second and third respectively on two points each.

Against PNG, the Tigers therefore need a win with a very positive net run rate to ensure they take one of the two qualification spots. Crucial to this effort will be an improvement in their Powerplay bowling. They gave away far too many runs in this phase against Oman and cannot afford to do that again.

PNG meanwhile have brought an infectious enthusiasm to the competition, but will want to add a maiden World Cup victory to their experience.

Although they lost to Scotland in their second match, they showed real guts and talent at times. When Scotland were batting and beginning to accelerate away, the PNG team tightened up their efforts and picked up six wickets in the final two overs while conceding just 15 runs.

They will know that they need their top order to perform better though – they found themselves 6/67 against Scotland, and although their lower order got them to within 17 runs, they were left with too much to do.

If PNG can maintain that tight bowling and have their top order fire a bit better, then perhaps they can add some extra pressure on a Tigers outfit with qualification concerns. If wickets start tumbling for the Tigers, maybe, just maybe, PNG could do the unthinkable.
