Australia, the current holders of the 50-over Cricket World Cup trophy, are showing strong form in this tournament, suggesting they could potentially hold both titles soon. They won’t underestimate Scotland and are expected to deliver another strong performance.
Scotland has been one of the standout teams in the 2024 T20 World Cup, with their record only marred by rain in Bridgetown against England earlier this month. They are likely to play aggressively and won’t be intimidated by the formidable Australian side.
There were over 380 runs and 17 wickets in the last T20I at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium so we can expect plenty of action in this game. The surface will offer good pace and carry and a par score is likely to be approaching 200.
