Kuwait vs Malaysia Prediction: Kuwait lost their last four games against Malaysia

Kuwait and Malaysia are going head to head in the of KCC T20I Tri Nations Cup 2024 at Selangor Turf Club, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 25th August 2024. Kuwait lost their last four games against Malaysia. Who will win this game of cricket?

The Malaysian batsmen have not really fired in the series yet. Their captain Syed Aziz has been their best batsman in the first couple of games, averaging 66 at a strike rate of 120. Aziz is one of their best skills batsmen in this format and should do well in the next game. Other hard-hitting batsmen we have picked for this game are Muhammad Amir and Ahmad Faiz.

Thus far, the Malaysian team has done an excellent bowling effort. The bowlers used the slow playing conditions pretty well to keep the opposition batsmen under control. Pavandeep Singh is their best bowler with 5 wickets at an economy rate of 4.08, while Muhammad Amir has snared 3 wickets for an economy rate of 7.80.

Kuwait comes off an exciting win over Hong Kong, winning by two wickets after the successful chase of 145 set by Hong Kong with just three balls remaining. This win was their second in the series and left them atop the table. Kuwait has a fine array of batsmen, with Meet Bhavsar their standout performer this year - he has scored more than 700 runs at an average of 32. The openers, Ravija Sandaruwan and Clinto Anto, are in good form, the former being the top scorer in the last match. Adnan Idrees has been the standout bowler for Kuwait, while Yasin Patel has looked quite miserly with the new ball. That would keep them in the hunt for wickets against Malaysia.

Malaysia has kept a clean record against Kuwait in T20I matches, winning four in a row, including one in the series underway. Being the home team, Malaysia will have an upper hand due to familiarity with the conditions. Though Kuwait possesses a fine bowling attack and some reliable batsmen, it will take something special to get the better of Malaysia. Thus, Malaysia is the clear, sure team to win this match, and we feel that they will emerge successful.
