TOPSHOT - In this photo taken on May 9, 2026, a spectator hits a ball on the sidelines during a break in play during the ICC T20 World Cup East Asia-Pacific Qualifier match between Japan and Vanuatu at the Nisshin Cricket Ground at Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin, Aichi Prefecture. Curious spectators clutching rulebooks watch as a batsman smacks a six into the sand and weeds surrounding Japan's brand-new cricket ground, four months before it hosts matches at the Asian Games.
