Romania will lock horns with Luxembourg in the 8th match of the Valletta Cup at the Marsa Sports Club in Marsa on July 15. Romania have played three matches so far where they are yet to win any and are languishing at the bottom of the table. On the other hand, Luxembourg have played one match so far, which they could not win and are fourth in the standings.

Romania had squared off against Malta in their last match, where Malta had won the toss and elected to bat. Malta did not start well, losing three wickets within the powerplay. Zeeshan Khan stood his ground at one end and played a fantastic knock of 98 runs. He was aided by some middle-order batters, due to which they managed to score a healthy total of 187 runs. Romania started rather well, with their top order scoring some decent runs. But they started losing wickets in a heap, which slowed their run rate, and they could only manage to muster 145 runs, thus, losing the match by 42 runs.

Luxembourg had played against Switzerland in their last encounter, where Switzerland won the toss and elected to bowl. Luxembourg lost their first wicket on duck and were too cautious after that. Shiv Gill did play a good knock but was not provided with any help from the other end. They could only manage to score 118 runs for the loss of eight wickets which was a below-par total. Switzerland had no problems chasing down such a total. The second-wicket partnership of 83 runs proved to be the match-winning. Switzerland won the match easily by eight wickets with more than four overs to spare.

Pitch Report

The track is more helpful to batters than it is to bowlers. Pacers can extract some help from the pitch and trouble the batters, while batters can exploit the batting nature of the pitch and score heavily. Teams winning the toss go for chasing the total, with the average first innings score being 174.

Manmeet Koli ROM | BOWL

Koli has been an asset to his team at both fronts and has taken four wickets so far. He has scored 38 runs as well and is yet to be dismissed in three matches. He could be the captain you are looking for.

7.5
C

Shantanu Vashisht ROM | BAT

Vashisht has been bowling beautifully and has been economical as well. He has scalped five wickets in three matches where he has an economy of 6.91 and could be a great alternate option.

9

Joost Mees LUX | WK

Mees was absolutely phenomenal in the first match where he smashed 85 runs off 51 balls. He would be hoped to continue with his brilliant form and amass more runs for his team.

9

Shiv Karan Gill LUX | ALL

Gill has been consistent so far, scoring runs in both the matches. He has smashed 89 runs at an average of 44.5 in two matches, including two sixes and nine fours.

10

Taranjeet Singh ROM | BAT

Singh is an explosive batter from Romania who can turn the game around on his own. He has smashed 69 runs so far in three matches at a strike-rate of 172.5.

7.5

Vasu Saini ROM | BAT

Saini can contribute in your team with the bat as well as ball. He has scored 38 runs and has taken two wickets in three matches and could make an excellent budget pick for the team.
