The ICC T20 World Cup 2028 East Asia Pacific Qualifier Super Six stage has already produced surprises, close contests, and a tight race for qualification. After four matches, Samoa sit at the top of the points table with 4 points and a strong net run rate of 1.917.
Japan and Papua New Guinea also remain unbeaten with two wins each. Japan currently hold second place with a net run rate of 1.775, while PNG stay close behind at 1.300. The competition looks intense because every run now carries huge importance.
Cook Islands earned one win from two games, but their negative net run rate continues to hurt their position. Vanuatu and Indonesia still search for their first victory in the Super Six stage.
The tournament once again shows the rapid growth of associate cricket across the East Asia Pacific region. Fans enjoy the unpredictability, and the points table already feels tighter than a last over thriller.
With several important matches still left, the battle for qualification remains completely open. One strong performance could quickly change the standings and create even more drama in the race to the ICC T20 World Cup 2028.
