New Delhi, Oct 28. Papua New Guinea (PNG) qualified for the 2020 World T20 after completing a sensational comeback win over Kenya in their World T20 qualifiers. This will be the first time that they will be playing in the men's T20 World Cup.

PNG recovered from 19/6 to win by 45 runs and with the Netherlands failing to chase down a total of 130 in 12.3 overs in their match against Scotland, PNG finished top of their group and thus booked a trip to Australia for the marquee tournament that will be held from October 18 to November 15 next year.
