Japan Vs Tanzania Live Streaming, ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup: TAN Bat First - Check Playing XIs

Japan and Tanzania face off today at the High Performance Oval in Windhoek for the 13th–16th Place Play-off, both searching for a maiden tournament victory.

Japan struggled in Group C against giants like Australia and Sri Lanka, though they showed immense grit in a narrow loss to Ireland.

Tanzania, making their World Cup debut, found Group D equally tough, suffering heavy defeats at the hands of South Africa and Afghanistan, which left them at the bottom of the table with a net run rate of -5.446.

Tanzania enters this match with a psychological edge, having comfortably defeated Japan by 81 runs in their warm-up encounter earlier this month.

In that game, Tanzanian skipper Laksh Bakrania shone with a half-century and two wickets. However, Japan has shown steady improvement since then, particularly through Nihar Parmar’s batting.

With survival and pride on the line, today's winner will advance to the 13th-place final, while the loser will fight to avoid the wooden spoon in the 15th-place play-off.
