Dubai: Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Ireland on Sunday qualified for the ICC T20 World Cup Australia 2020.
This is the first time that PNG has qualified for the Men’s T20 World Cup.
PNG achieved the feat by defeating Kenya in their group stage match of the ICC T20 World Cup qualifying tournament by 45 runs.
Ireland, however, had defeated Nigeria by eight wickets on Saturday but their fortunes depended on the match between Oman and Jersey.
If Oman had managed to defeat Jersey, then they would have topped Group B and would have qualified for the T20 World Cup next year. (ANI)
