Koltsov & Oreshkin Seal World Cup Spots

Boris Koltsov & Aleksandr Oreshkin (EADC)

BORIS KOLTSOV and Aleksandr Oreshkin will represent Russia in the Betway World Cup of Darts, with Evgenii Izotov missing out on qualification despite his victory on the latest weekend of the EADC circuit.

Top Russian pair Koltsov and Oreshkin competed in the 2016 World Cup of Darts, losing out to Netherlands in round one, and will team up once again next month for the Pairs event in Frankfurt.

The pair are the top two players in the EADC rankings following the third double-header weekend of the year, with Koltsov picking up his second victory of the season by whitewashing Oreshkin in the Event Six final.

Oreshkin also reached the Event Five final, but lost out narrowly to Evgenii Izotov, who now sits in third place on the rankings.
