ENG Vs SCO Live Score: Pitch Report

The strips at Bridgetown are generally two-paced and tend to get slower as the game progresses. There should not be signs of dew and the spinners shall get adequate assistance.

The pacers can get the best with a change of pace and asking the batter to hit to the longer pocket. While the new ball does not do a lot, it helps the batters to make the most of the runs in the early half of the innings. 

The team batting first have won more matches.

ENG Vs SCO: Team Preview

Scotland

Scotland who failed to qualify for the previous edition of 2024 T20 World Cup, managed to get in this time around as the tournament expanded to 20 teams. 

They are placed in Group B alongside Namibia, England, Australia and Oman. While the group is competitive, Scotland will be looking to make the most of their opportunity.

As an associate member, the T20 World Cup is a massive learning experience with Scotland, and regardless of where they finish, Scotland cricket will only thrive after the tournament.

However, despite being an associate team, Scotland cannot be completely ruled out of the contest. Many underdog teams have already impressed so far and perhaps Scotland could end up producing a surprise as well.

ENG Vs SCO: Team Preview

England

England cricket team will enter the 2024 T20 World Cup as leading favourites given their squad strength and dominance in the shorter format. 

Led by Jos Buttler, the English side possess a good blend of young blood as well as experienced veterans who together will terrorise the oppositions with their aggressive approach.

Jofra Archer will be making his much-anticipated comeback after a prolonged injury layoff, whereas Harry Brook and Will Jacks could prove to be X factors.

England are also coming off a dominating series win against Pakistan last week, meaning the squad is high on confidence ahead of their tournament opener against an associate team.

Hello Folks! Welcome to OneCricket's live blog! I'm Rajgeeta Yadav and I'll be your host for the thrilling showdown between England and Scotland at the Kensington Oval.

It's an exciting clash today, as the defending champions will play their first match of T20 World Cup against noisy neighbours.
