WIW vs SCT-W Match Prediction & Analysis
West Indies women take on Scotland women in a crucial Group B encounter as both teams look to try and get their campaign quickly back on track after a crushing defeat in their respective matches to kick off their World T20 campaign.
TEAMS PREVIEW
West Indies Preview
A clumsy performance by the batters and a far worse bowling effort by the bowlers handed West Indies women a massive 10 wicket defeat in their tournament opener against South Africa. They canβt afford to dwell on that for long, with their next fixture against Scotland due to start in a dayβs time.
Scotland Preview
Scotlandβs first ever match at the womenβs world T20 didnβt go according to plan. Having missed an opportunity to bat well and close the game against Bangladesh.
Forced to field under arid conditions, Scottish fielders felt the heat grassing simple catches that eventually cost them in the end. Rachel Slater with the new ball couldnβt have an impact, but Scottish captain Kathryn Bell and spinners Olivia Bell and Katherine Fraser struck to remove the settled Bangladesh batters to push them on to back foot.
Weather Conditions
The pitches here in Dubai have been better for batting than Sharjah. The batters up top need to curb their instincts to attack early on and get a sighter before they get on with playing their natural game. You can always make up for a slow start by going bang bang at the end but itβs all about preserving wickets here.
Both South Africa women and New Zealand women went on to win their first games, after having made sure they didnβt give away their wickets inside the powerplay overs.
Bowling a stump to stump line is key to picking up wickets here, whether itβs a medium pacer or spinner operating. Weather-wise, things are looking good and the players can look forward to playing under nice and cool conditions as the evening sets in.
WIW vs SCT-W Pitch Report
This match will be played at the Dubai international cricket stadium. West Indies women lost their first match at this venue to South Africa the other day.
Toss: To Bowl
Scotlandβs best chance of registering a victory would be to put West Indies into bat and restrict them from scoring an above par total. Having lost their first fixture batting first, the women in Maroon would want to bat second. The captain winning the toss is more likely to choose to field first.
