Vanuatu Cricket Skipper’s Knock Falls Short Against Australia Indigenous Side | PacificAus Sports 2025. Vanuatu pulled off a miracle win against Samoa on Thursday but went down to PNG on Friday.

✍️ A miraculous win yesterday saw one of the greatest comebacks in international cricket, with Rayline Ova taking 5-13 to ice the game for Vanuatu.

Today's superhuman bowling from Ova & Vira was not enough to get us over the line against the home side.

Vanuatu requires 99 runs to win from 20 overs!

After having the Lewas 15/5 after 5 overs, a 48-run partnership between Doriga and Thomas clawed PNG back to a respectable total.

Match abandoned due to rain in Port Moresby! ☔

Our opening match at the PacificAus Sports Invitational was called off after heavy rain halted play with Samoa 12 for 2 in reply to Vanuatu’s 116 for 9.

Tomorrow: we take on world no.13 PNG tomorrow — 2pm local / 3pm Vanuatu

We have posted 116 for 9 from our 20 overs in our opening match of the PacificAus Sports Invitational. Valenta Langiatu top-scored with a patient 34. Despite a strong platform laid by Langiatu and Nasimana Navaika, momentum stuttered. Susan Stephen's 19 from 11 was the exception.

CORRECTION - WE ARE BATTING FIRST 🏏

🇻🇺🆚🇼🇸 Here's our playing XI for today's match against Samoa, including Rachel Andrew's first match as captain and on her 15th birthday, Anna Griffin makes her debut.
