Match Preview
In the 35th clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, Australia will be up against Scotland. The match is set to take place on Sunday, June 16, at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground, Saint Lucia. Australia started off the tournament on a victorious note and went on to win all their matches. The Kangaroos took down Oman in the first match, followed by Ashesh rivals England and Namibia. The Mitchell Marsh-led side sealed their Super 8 spot and would aim to proceed towards the next stage with a win.
Scotland, on the other hand, haven’t lost a game either. However, they are one point behind Australia as their game against England got washed out. They are also on the verge of qualifying and would want to make the most of the upcoming opportunity.
Toss Prediction
Australia and Scotland haven’t faced each other in the T20Is and the upcoming match will be the first time they will lock horns against each other. Talking about the toss, while they don’t have any head-to-head records, both Austalia and Scotland skippers, Mitchell Marsh and Richie Berrington have come on top in one toss each. In the upcoming toss, Berrington could win the toss over Marsh.
Win Possibility
Pool B toppers Australia started off the tournament on a dominating note, registering an easy win over Oman. The former champions continued their momentum, defeated England, and sealed a Super 8 berth with a win over Namibia. Scotland, too, looked powerful right from the beginning. While their season opener against England got washed out, a determined Scottish team went on to defeat Namibia and Oman in their second and third fixtures, respectively.
Needless to say, both teams are coming off on a positive note and the upcoming game will be nothing short of a thriller. However, the Kangaroos are highly likely to win the upcoming game considering Australia's dominance and past records.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The upcoming match between Australia and Scotland will be played at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground. The venue has hosted more than 18 T20I matches so far and has an average first-inning score of 160. Considering this, we think the first-inning score of the game could be around 160-170 and the powerplay score could hover around 45-50.
