Ever since taking to the cricketing fraternity and partaking in international T20s, Singapore ended up finally tasting their first defeat in the format yesterday. Beginning life in the T20 Tri-Series as the hosts took on Nepal in their series opener, a lacklustre bowling effort ended up leaving the outfit in dismay to see them go down by 9 wickets.
At the end of the day, while Singapore’s bowling effort was meek and tepid at best, the batsmen didn’t cover themselves in glory either. They failed to make the most of sublime batting conditions, putting on just 153 runs on the scoreboard, a score which Nepal chased down with 9 wickets to spare to recover from their opening day 5 wicket defeat to Zimbabwe.
Stepping out to the field for the second time in less than a day, for hosts Singapore today’s match is all about giving a better account of themselves ahead of the upcoming T20 Qualifiers. In Singapore, they are up against one of their wiliest and staunchest opponent in the cricketing fraternity, a side whose calibre they have not had the chance to familiarise themselves till now.
Elsewhere while this promises to be a stern test for Singapore, for Zimbabwe who are looking to make it two wins on the bounce, this match is all about earning back some much lost respect in the arena. Shunted out by the ICC, 2019 has been a horrid year for the side with the outfit falling to some of their worst displays this year which saw them not only lose series in a flurry but be swept apart and wiped out in them.

Yesterday’s match perfectly epitomised how good the batting conditions are on this track. Despite this being the third match in as many days over here, the surface will be undeterred, tended to well by the ground team to see the batting conducive remain intact over here.
With the ball coming onto the bat nicely, allowing the batsmen to crunch the ball to the fence with ease, the side winning the toss will be preferring to step out and chase today.
