WBSC Premier12 2024 presented by RAXUS Group B Day 4 - Australia v Cuba; Japan v Chinese Taipei; Dominican Republic v Korea
Welcome to Day Four of Group play at the WBSC Premier12 2024 presented by RAXUS in Taipei features three games with Australia and Cuba starting the day at the Taipei Tianmu Stadium at midday (local time) before two big games in the evening session with Group B leaders Japan and Chinese Taipei squaring off at the Taipei Dome while the Dominican Republic and Korea - both with a 1-2 win-loss record - play at Tianmu.
In the first game of the day, world No. 15 Australia and No. 9 Cuba will play the first game in the Taipei Tianmu Stadium double-header. A win would make Australia (1-1) a serious contender for a Super Round spot. Cuba has yet to win a game.
Defending champions Japan and Chinese Taipei square off in a matchup between the No. 1 and the No. 2 teams in the WBSC/KONAMI Men’s Baseball World Ranking at 6pm local time at the Taipei Dome in Taipei, Taiwan. The game at the Taipei Dome has been sold out.

In the evening game at Tianmu, world No. 6 Korea and No. 9 Dominican Republic cannot afford another loss. They are tied at 1-2, and losing on Saturday would terminate the chances of a trip to the Super Round.
