Preview:
GIB vs MAL:
In the 2nd match of the Portugal T20I Tri-Series 2021, Gibraltar will face Malta. Malta has indeed played one game on this tour, losing by six wickets against Portugal after scoring 146 runs and losing of eight wickets when batting first. Portugal, on the other hand, knocked down the goal in only 18.1 overs, losing only four wickets in the process. Malta must concentrate on their bowling unit if they want to win this match.
Gibraltar, on the other side, is ready to play their opening game of the series against Malta, a formidable opponent. They played their final T20I encounter against Portugal and Spain at the Iberia Cup in 2019, which went horribly wrong for them as they lost all four matches. We anticipate them to do better this time and put up a strong fight.
