WI vs PNG Dream11 Prediction T20 World Cup: West Indies will take on Papua New Guinea in Match 2 Group C match of the 2024 T20 World Cup
2024 T20 WC Match 2 WIN Vs PNG: Preview
These two teams will go into this tournament with very different expectations and ambitions.
West Indies, being the co-hosts of this tournament, will look at this World Cup as their big return to prominence in international cricket. The first nation to win two T20 World Cups, the West Indies has failed to stamp their authority on the previous two tournaments. A win in this match will be a good start to what might be looked upon as a potential title run by the Windies.
As for Papua New Guinea, they are in what might might be the group of death in this tournament. While in other groups, an upset over one of the two big teams might mean a trip to the Super 8, three teams from this group have ambitions of finishing in the top two. With the likes of the West Indies, New Zealand, and Afghanistan being in the same group as PNG, the most they can hope for is maybe a third-place finish, and even that would take an upset.

2024 T20 WC Match 2 WIN Vs PNG
A consequence of having 20 teams in the World Cup is that many matches will be quite easy to predict. The West Indies will walk into this one as clear favourites.
Being the more high-profile team and co-hosts means that the West Indies will be favoured by most experts to win this one. Couple that with the fact that Papua New Guinea does not have a lot of experience in ICC tournaments, and the Windies are all but assured a victory in this one.
But it might not be as straightforward as that. West Indies have shown themselves to be upset-prone in recent years. A collapse of the top order might be enough for them to come down like a house of cards.
But that is a minute possibility. A betting man would bet on West Indies to win this one.
