Vodafone Fiji Bati fullback youngster Sunia Turuva and Teammate and forward Viliame Kikau

Vodafone Fiji Bati fullback and Panthers youngster Sunia Turuva continued his strong tournament with an eye-catching display at the back for Fiji against Scotland last week, finishing with 214 run metres and seven tackle breaks.

Teammate and forward Viliame Kikau led the side with a try and try assist.

Many are asking the question if the Bati still have the depth to upset New Zealand but only time will tell when the two meet this weekend.

The quarter final between the Bati and New Zealand will kick off at 7.30am Sunday.
