Including the hosts, the tournament will also feature long-term rivals Papua New Guinea, who narrowly overcame Japan in the Final the last time the tournament was played in 2014, while Cricket Without Borders will also feature in a friendly capacity.<\/p>\n

This year we are lucky to be able to welcome an assortment of expert coaches from Australia through our ongoing relationship with Cricket Victoria.\u00a0The first of these was Lachlan Stevens, who ran the successful camp in Golden Week<\/a>, and Nicole will become the second.<\/p>\n

Nicole, a Level Three coach in Australia who also represents the National Women\u2019s Indoor Cricket team and has won four Indoor World Cups, will be in Japan for around 10 days.<\/p>\n
