West Indies U19 vs Australia U19 Preview, Predictions & Betting Tips

The West Indies and Australia clash for a second time at the 2020 Under 19 Cricket World Cup in the 5th Place Play-off in Benoni. The Windies are tipped to win again while Kevlon Anderson can be backed in the best batsman market.

West Indies Form

It was all looking so good for the West Indies until they met New Zealand in the quarter-final of the U19 Cricket World Cup. They had brushed aside Australia, England and Nigeria to reach the quarter-finals but New Zealand were just too good on the day.

West Indies were paired with South Africa in the semi-final of the 5th place play-off. The host nation was skittled out for just 143 and the West Indies chased the total to win by 4 wickets in Potchefstroom.

The West Indies batsmen have blown hot and cold over the course of the tournament, but Kevlon Anderson will be happy with his tournament average of 40.5. He is available at odds of 5.00 to top score while the West Indies are priced at 1.90 for the win.

West Indies News

The West Indies appear to have a fully-fit squad at their disposal, but it is likely that head coach Floyd Reifer will mix things up a bit in order to bring a freshness to the side.

Australia Form

Australia head into this match off the back of a 4-wicket win over Afghanistan. The Aussies were set a target of 191 to win, but they struggled to come to terms with some of the Afghan spin bowling. Australia eventually got to the total off the penultimate ball of the match.

These issues with the bat – as were also highlighted against West Indies in the group stage where they managed a paltry 179 runs, will be of concern to coach Chris Rogers. If Australia are to win against the Windies they'll need vast improvement in the batting department.

Australia News

Coach Chris Rogers has not been shy in rotating his side during the 2020 U19 Cricket World Cup. It is unknown whether he will decide to go with an extra batsman to try and solidify his top order.
