ESSW vs DUR-W Match Prediction & Analysis Essex Women square off against Durham Women in match 26 of the Metro Bank Womens One Day Cup 2025 on Wednesday, 14th May. The match is slated to be played at County Ground, Chelmsford and the scheduled start time is 3:00 PM IST.  Essex Women are reeling from a 17-run defeat against Hampshire Women in their most recent outing, marking their fifth loss of the season. Meanwhile, Durham Women are riding high after a morale-boosting 3-wicket victory over Warwickshire Women, snapping their four-match losing streak. Current Standings – Essex Women find themselves languishing at the bottom of the table (8th place) with a mere 4 points from 6 matches (1 win and 5 losses). Durham Women sit just above them in 7th place with 9 points from the same number of matches (2 wins and 4 losses). TEAMS PREVIEW Essex Women Preview It’s been another tough outing for Essex Women, as their poor form persists with a narrow defeat in a match they’ll feel they could have won. Ultimately, a disappointing batting performance hampered their chances. In their recent encounter against Hampshire Women, Essex Women won the toss and elected to bowl first. However, their bowlers struggled to contain the Hampshire Women’s batting lineup, who posted a formidable total of 273 for the loss of 5 wickets. Kate Coppack was the pick of the bowlers, finishing with figures of 2 for 44. Abtaha Maqsood proved to be the most economical, conceding just 27 runs in her 8 overs at an impressive economy rate of 3.37. Chasing the target, Essex Women got off to a solid start with their openers putting on a 47-run partnership for the first wicket. Their captain, Grace Scrivens, played a magnificent innings, scoring a brilliant century with 101 runs off 120 balls, including 13 boundaries. Jodi Grewcock contributed a valuable 33 runs, while Sophia Smale added 26. Unfortunately, the rest of the batting order failed to capitalize, and Essex Women eventually fell short, finishing their innings at 256 for 8. Durham Women Preview After a commanding 9-wicket victory over Essex Women in their season opener, Durham Women experienced a dip in form, losing their subsequent four matches – three while defending totals and one while chasing. However, they bounced back in their last game, securing a win over Warwickshire Women and putting an end to their four-match losing streak. Asked to bowl first, Durham Women put in a disciplined bowling performance to restrict Warwickshire Women to 243 for 9 in their 50 overs. Sophia Turner (3 for 58), Grace Thompson (2 for 17), Mady Villiers (2 for 35), and Katie Levick (2 for 40) all contributed with crucial wickets in a collective effort. In the chase, Durham Women suffered an early setback with the loss of Emma Marlow, leaving them at 24 for 1.  However, their captain, Hollie Armitage (46 runs), and Suzie Bates (72 runs) steadied the innings with a crucial 104-run partnership for the second wicket. Mady Villiers then played a vital innings of 65 runs, holding firm at one end. In the end, Grace Thompson’s quickfire 13 runs helped them seal the victory, adding a valuable 34 runs for the 8th wicket to see them over the line. Weather Conditions The weather forecast for the County Ground, Chelmsford today, Wednesday, May 14th, indicates a temperature of around 7°C. It is expected to be a sunny day with no chance of rain. The wind will be blowing at approximately 11 km/hr, and the humidity will be at 91%. ESSW vs DUR-W Pitch Report The pitch at County Ground, Chelmsford is known to be batter-friendly, often resulting in high-scoring encounters. So far this season, the average first innings score at this venue stands at a competitive 260 runs. It’s also anticipated that the pacers will find more assistance on this surface. Toss: To Bowl Looking at the two matches played at the County Ground, Chelmsford so far this season, there’s been an even split in results, with the team batting first winning one and the team chasing winning the other. However, as observed in the last match at this venue, the pitch seemed to favor batting as the game progressed.  Interestingly, Durham Women have won both of their matches this season while chasing, and Essex Women also secured their only victory while batting second. We predict that the captain winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.

United Arab Emirates vs Scotland, ICCCWCLT, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : United Arab Emirates vs Scotland​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 14,Wednesday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​​ ICC Cricket World Cup League Two, 2023-27​ Can UAE pull off another win over Scotland? United Arab Emirates vs Scotland​ TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. UAE vs SCT Match Prediction & Analysis United Arab Emirates (UAE) square off against Scotland in match 66 of ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 on Wednesday, 14th May. The match is slated to be played at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht and the scheduled start time is 2:30 PM IST.  UAE are heading into this match after a disappointing 5-wicket defeat against the Netherlands in their previous outing, marking their third consecutive loss in the series. Similarly, Scotland suffered a 19-run loss to the Netherlands in their last game, falling short while chasing a target of 283 runs. With both sides desperate for a victory to turn their fortunes around, this encounter is poised to be a captivating battle on the cricket field. Current Standings – Scotland currently sits in 5th position on the league table with 16 points from 14 matches, boasting a record of 7 wins, 5 losses, and 2 no-results. Meanwhile, UAE finds themselves at the bottom half of the standings with a mere 6 points from 15 matches, having secured only 3 victories and suffered 12 defeats. TEAMS PREVIEW United Arab Emirates Preview Following a commanding victory over Scotland in Match 63, where the UAE outclassed their opponents to secure their third win in the CWC League 2, they have unfortunately slipped back into their losing streak, suffering a 5-wicket defeat in their most recent match against the Netherlands. In that game, the UAE won the toss and elected to bat first, seemingly attempting to replicate the successful strategy they employed against Scotland. However, this time it backfired, as their opening batsmen failed to provide the much-needed solid start, and their middle order couldn’t adapt their play to the match situation. Asif Khan played a gritty innings, scoring a half-century (75 runs), and a useful late contribution from Dhruv Prasar (41 runs) helped the UAE surpass the 200-run mark, eventually finishing their innings at 204 for 9 wickets. The Netherlands successfully chased down the target within 36 overs, with 5 wickets in hand. While Simranjeet Singh couldn’t quite produce a magical spell, he was the standout bowler for the UAE, bowling economically and finishing with figures of 1 wicket for 41 runs. The UAE’s batting in the middle overs has been a significant weakness throughout this series. Their dot ball percentage has been alarmingly high, and consistently only one or two batsmen have managed to perform well in each match. This lack of collective batting effort has proven costly.  In terms of bowling, their spin attack has generally been effective, but their two pace bowlers have struggled to make an impact, with a significant portion of the opposition’s runs being scored off their bowling throughout the series. Scotland Preview Scotland will be disappointed with their performance in the last two matches. Their bowling attack conceded over 280 runs in both games, and despite their openers providing solid starts, they haven’t been able to capitalize and convert those starts into match-winning innings. In their recent match against the Netherlands, Scotland bowled first and allowed the opposition to reach 282 for 7 wickets. On his return to the side, Brad Currie delivered an impressive bowling performance, finishing with figures of 4 wickets for 52 runs. McMullen, Watt, and Davidson each contributed with a wicket. When chasing the target, Scotland got off to an excellent start, with George Munsey leading the charge.  Munsey scored a rapid half-century within the first ten overs and went on to play a magnificent innings of 106 runs off 101 balls, including 12 boundaries and 3 sixes. McGreath (38 runs) and Cross (47 runs) provided stability in the middle overs, but none of the other batsmen made significant contributions, ultimately resulting in Scotland falling short by 18 runs, finishing their innings at 263 for 9 wickets. Weather Conditions The weather at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht on Wednesday, 14th May is expected to be around 14°C with clear skies and the wind blowing at 13 km/hr and a humidity of 64%.  UAE vs SCT Pitch Report The pitch at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht, generally favours the bowlers and tends to be a low-scoring venue. The average first innings score here is 180 runs, the presence of live grass on the surface offers swing, while the wicket also provides pace and bounce. A score of 230-250 will be above par at this venue making it difficult for the side batting second.  Toss: To Bowl Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd in Utrecht has hosted four ODI matches to date. Interestingly, the chasing team has won three of these encounters, while the team batting first secured victory in the remaining match. We predict the team that wins the toss will opt to bowl first.

LLG vs NK Match Prediction & Analysis Leinster Lightning square off against Northern Knights in match 3 of Ireland Inter Provincial Men’s 50 Over cup 2025 on Tuesday, 13th May. The match is slated to be played at Oak Hill Cricket Club and the scheduled start time is 3:15 PM IST.  Leinster Lightning enter this match on the back of a convincing 48-run victory over the Munster Reds in their high-scoring season opener. Similarly, the Northern Knights also started their campaign with a win, defeating the North-West Warriors by 4 wickets in a high-scoring chase last week. This encounter, therefore, is a battle between the two undefeated teams and a contest for the early top spot in the season standings. Current Standings: Linster Lightning currently lead the points table with 4 points from one match and a net run rate of +0.960. The Northern Knights also have 4 points from one match but sit in second place with a net run rate of +0.535. Head-to-Head Record: In the last five head-to-head matches between Linster Lightning and Northern Knights, Linster has the edge with three wins (two while batting first and one while bowling first), while Northern Knights have won two (one while batting first and one while chasing). TEAMS PREVIEW Leinster Lightning Preview Linster Lightning, the reigning champions, have started their current campaign strongly, securing a comprehensive 48-run victory over the Munster Reds at Wicklow. Having lost the toss and been asked to bat first, Linster Lightning posted a formidable total of 328/8 in their 50 overs. Despite losing two early wickets, a record-breaking 212-run partnership for the third wicket between Harry Tector (120 runs) and their captain, Lorcan Tucker (121 runs), brought Linster firmly back into the game. A late cameo from George Dockrell, who scored a quickfire 27 runs off 17 balls, propelled Linster past the 300-run mark. Defending their total, Linster maintained control throughout the Munster Reds’ run chase. They effectively contained the scoring rate in the middle overs and also picked up wickets at regular intervals, eventually bowling out the Reds for 280 runs in 46.1 overs. Jai Moondra (3/42) and Barry McCarthy (2/41) were the standout bowlers for Linster. Northern Knights (Ireland) Preview Having narrowly missed out on the title last season despite finishing with 17 points, the same as their opponents Linster Lightning, Northern Knights will be acutely aware of the importance of net run rate this season. They started their campaign positively with a 4-wicket victory against the North-West Warriors in their opening match. Bowling first, the Northern Knights conceded 283/5. Young Thomas Mayes was the pick of the bowlers, taking 3 wickets for 66 runs. While slightly expensive, he made crucial breakthroughs at important junctures. Matthew Foster was the most economical bowler, finishing with figures of 2/43 in his 10 overs, including one maiden. Chasing a target of 284, the Knights enjoyed an excellent start thanks to their openers, Cade Carmichael (86 runs) and James McCollum (57 runs), who put on a 128-run partnership for the first wicket in 20 overs. However, the Knights then lost wickets at regular intervals, slipping to 222/6, still requiring over 60 runs for victory. A crucial 7th-wicket partnership of 62 runs between Jordan Niel (32 runs) and Thomas Mayes (40 runs) guided the Knights to victory in 46.1 overs. Weather Conditions The Weather at Oak Hill Cricket Club Ground in Wicklow on Tuesday, 13th May is expected to be around 16°C clear skies and a sunny day and the wind blowing at 21 km/hr and humidity of 69%.  LLG vs NK Pitch Report The pitch at Oak Hill Cricket Club in Wicklow appears to have undergone a significant transformation since last season. Previously favoring bowlers with an average first innings score of 193, the conditions this season seem much more conducive to high scores. The surface is described as hard with minimal grass, suggesting good bounce and allowing batsmen to confidently play their shots through the line. Given these conditions, a high-scoring game is anticipated, and a total in the range of 280-300 could be considered a par score. Toss: To Bowl At Oak Hill Cricket Club in Wicklow, teams batting second have won two out of the three matches played. Given that it’s a high-scoring ground and the pitch tends to become more favorable for batting as the match progresses, we predict that the team winning the toss will likely choose to bowl first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Hong Kong Women vs Bahrain Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 12,Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 12:00 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Tambon Khlong Nung, Thailand 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ ICC T20 Women’s World Cup Asia Qualifier, 2025 Hong Kong Women and Bahrain Women go in search of their first win on Monday! Hong Kong Women vs Bahrain Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. HKG-W vs BHN-W Match Prediction & Analysis The ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Asia Region Qualifier has got off to an exciting start and so far in Group C it is Hong Kong Women and Bahrain Women who have made the slower starts. Nepal sit at the top of the table after beating Bahrain Women on Saturday following the abandonment of their opener against Hong Kong Women on Friday. So Hong Kong Women and Bahrain Women will both go in search of their first win in this match and with the knowledge that they will be very close to Nepal at the summit of Group C if they do pick up the victory. The Terdthai Cricket Ground in Bangkok will produce a lush green outfield for this match with the ball running away quickly to the boundary but do not be surprised if there are a few demons in the pitch for the batters to contend with! TEAMS PREVIEW Hong Kong Women Preview After the abandonment of their first fixture against Nepal Women without a ball bowled, Hong Kong Women should have a fresh bowling and batting line-up full of hunger ahead of this game. Opener Shanzeen Shahzad comes into the match in strong form after hitting 53 runs from 47 balls against Kuwait Women in their last game and Yasmin Daswani also impressed with 40 not out from 31 balls at number five. Captain Natasha Miles is another consistent batter and the experienced right-hander will open the innings. With the ball, Shing Chan (3/13) and Ruchitha Venkatesh (2/22) were the most potent against Kuwait Women although Kary Chan is very accurate and will be tough to hit out of the attack in this fixture. Bahrain Women Preview Although Bahrain Women were beaten by Nepal Women in their opening game of Group C in Bangkok, it was a much-reduced match with both teams given just five overs each per innings. And Bahrain Women produced 41/1 from their five overs, not a bad total, and if they can maintain that run-rate (8.20) in this game then they will certainly be competitive! Captain Deepika Rasangika will be the main threat for Bahrain Women with the bat and she comes into the game after hitting 34 not out from 13 balls to finish with a strike-rate of 216.53. With the ball, the opening pair of Sadamali Bhakshala and Tharanga Gajanayake are both strong players at this level with Pavithra Shetty a consistent performer. Weather Conditions It could be another shortened game in Bangkok on Monday with high humidity and scattered thunderstorms in the forecast. The temperature will be in the high twenties throughout. HKG-W vs BHN-W Pitch Report This is a small ground with a quick outfield so any ball which gets off the square is likely to race to the boundary or over the fence! The pitch will provide assistance to the bowlers so a par first innings total will be no higher than 145-150. Toss: To Bowl The conditions are unlikely to change much from innings to innings in this game and we predict that both captains will go out for the toss wanting to bowl first on Monday.

UAE vs NED Match Prediction & Analysis United Arab Emirates (UAE) square off against Netherlands in match 65 of ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 on Monday, 12th May. The match is slated to be played at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht and the scheduled start time is 2:30 PM IST.  UAE are coming on the back off a dominant 97 run win over Scotland which is their third win in this cycle of CWC League 2. On the other hand Netherlands continue to remain consistent as they racked up yet another win over Scotland by 19 runs on Saturday.  Current Standings –  The Netherlands occupies the 1st position with 24 points from 18 matches, having registered 11 wins, 5 losses, and 2 no-results. Meanwhile, UAE languishes at the bottom half of the points table with a mere 6 points from 14 matches, comprising 3 wins and 11 losses. Head to Head Record – UAE and Netherlands both have two wins to their tally. The last encounter between these two teams took place in May 2025, where the Netherlands emerged victorious by 113 runs. TEAMS PREVIEW United Arab Emirates Preview Having suffered two defeats while chasing against Scotland and the Netherlands earlier in the tour, the UAE secured a historic victory against Scotland in their recent CWC League 2 encounter. Winning the toss this time, the UAE elected to bat first. Their openers provided a solid start, forging a 59-run partnership for the first wicket, with Aryansh Sharma contributing a brisk 56 runs. However, Scotland fought back, reducing the UAE to 114/3 in the 26th over. Skipper Rahul Chopra then played a captain’s innings, anchoring the innings with a brilliant century (101 runs off 94 balls). In the death overs, Alishan Sharafu (32 runs) and Mohammad Waseem (41 runs) provided the late fireworks, propelling the UAE to a formidable total of 296/6. Defending a substantial total, the UAE employed a spin-heavy strategy. Despite a good powerplay for Scotland, where they scored 69 runs for the opening wicket in 12 overs, the UAE spinners tightened the screws, stifling the scoring rate and inducing errors. Consequently, Scotland were eventually bowled out for 199 runs in 43 overs. Simranjeet Singh (4/30), registering his career-best figures, and Aayan Afzal Khan (3/41) were the pick of the bowlers. Spinners accounted for 8 of the 10 Scottish wickets. Netherlands Preview Continuing their strong form in white-ball cricket, the Netherlands have taken a 2-0 lead in the series, securing a convincing 113-run victory over the UAE in match 61 and a hard-fought 18-run win against their neighbours Scotland on Saturday. In their recent match, the Netherlands stuck to their preference of batting first, posting a competitive total of 282/7. Once again, Max O’Dowd spearheaded the innings with a fine knock of 68 runs. He was well-supported by Zach Lion-Cachet (78 runs) and Scott Edwards (70 runs), who maintained a steady scoring rate in the middle overs. Towards the end of the innings, Teja Nidamanuru (19 runs) and Bas de Leede (14 runs) provided the late impetus, pushing the Netherlands’ score beyond the 280 mark. Defending the total proved to be a challenging task for the Netherlands. Despite an early breakthrough with the wicket of Charlie Tear in the second over, George Munsey’s aggressive century (106 runs off 101 balls) kept Scotland firmly in the chase. However, the Netherlands’ bowlers responded collectively, with Paul Van Meekeren (3/39) and Roelf Van der Merwe (3/34) picking up crucial wickets in the middle overs. Their efforts helped the Netherlands restrict Scotland to 263/9 in their allotted 50 overs. Max O’Dowd has been in exceptional form, currently the second-highest run-scorer in the CWC League 2 2023-27 cycle with 600 runs in 16 matches at an average of 40, and is the leading run-scorer for the Netherlands. Scott Edwards, with 466 runs, is also approaching the 500-run milestone and has been a consistent performer in the middle order. Aryan Dutt (27 wickets), Kyle Klein (25 wickets), and Paul Van Meekeren (24 wickets) form the Netherlands’ formidable bowling attack. Weather Conditions The weather at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht on Monday, 12th May is expected to be around 14°C with clear skies and the wind blowing at 13 km/hr and a humidity of 64%.  UAE vs NED Pitch Report The pitch at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht, generally favours the bowlers and tends to be a low-scoring venue. The average first innings score here is 172 runs, and no team has yet surpassed the 200-run mark at this ground. Fast bowlers have enjoyed success here, having taken 32 wickets in the three ODIs played so far. The presence of live grass on the surface offers swing, while the wicket also provides pace and bounce. A score of 230-250 will be above par at this venue making it difficult for the side batting second.  Toss: To Bowl Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd in Utrecht has hosted three ODI matches to date. Interestingly, the chasing team has won two of these encounters, while the team batting first secured victory in the remaining match. But considering the trend in the current series where chasing teams have been unsuccessful, we predict that the team winning the toss will opt to bat first and then look to defend their total.

Bowling first Hampshire Women restricted Durham Women to 190/8 in 50 overs. Lauren Bell once again bowled an excellent spell with the new ball setting the tone with figures of 2/38, Linsey Smith after missing the last game made an impact on her comeback with figures of 2/25 in 10 overs bowling 2 maidens. Charli Knott was mighty effective in the middle overs (2/38).  The Hampshire Women chased down the target in 36.5 overs losing 3 wickets and scoring 193 runs. Maia Bouchier (53 runs) scored her 3rd fifty of the season. Charli Knott scored 58 runs in 66 balls the duo added 93 runs for the 2nd wicket and made sure Hampshire chased it down comfortably.  Hampshire Women so far this season won two of their last three matches while chasing and won one match while defending and tied another match while defending. Ella McCaughn with 279 runs is the top scorer for Hampshire and Linsey Smith with 9 wickets in 4 matches is the leading wicket-taker.  Essex Women Preview Essex Women after pulling of a tough win over Lancashire Women by five wickets to register their first win of the season  after three consecutive losses are back to losing ways and in their recent match against The Blaze Women, Essex Women lost by 5 wickets.  Batting first Essex Women scored 231/9 on a slightly two paced surface with the help of a magnificent hundred from their captain Grace Scrivens who scored 120 runs in 134 balls and she was well supported by wicketkeeper batter Amara Carr from the other end who scored 34 runs. While rest of the batting lineup collapsed. Only four batters scored in double digits which.  Then defending the Total Essex Women were compleelty outclassed as The Blaze Women chased down the target in 41 overs. Beth McGregor with figures of 3/42 was the stand out bowler. Essex’s main issue this season has been their batting where only Scrivens, Carr and Jodie Grewcock have done bulk of the scoring. Infact Essex has only crossed the 225 runs mark twice this season.

Sri Lanka Women vs India Women, SLWTS, Today Match Prediction

Sri Lanka Women vs India Women, SLWTS, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sri Lanka Women vs India Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 11,Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 10:00 AM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium, Colombo, Sri Lanka 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ Sri Lanka Womens Tri-Nation Series, 2025 The Tri-Series Concludes as Sri Lanka Women take on India Women in Saturday’s final. SLW vs IND-W Match Prediction & Analysis The R Premadasa Stadium will be bouncing on Sunday when Sri Lanka Women, the hosts, take on India Women, the overwhelming favourites, in the Tri-Series. India Women won the first meeting between the sides on April 27 when they won by nine wickets with 56 balls remaining but Sri Lanka Women then pulled off one of their biggest upsets in recent times when they won the reverse fixture by three wickets with five balls remaining earlier this month. Overall, it has been an exciting tournament with all three sides picking up at least one victory and none of them getting through the group stage without at least one defeat. South Africa Women beat Sri Lanka Women in the final group stage game but they are the team who misses out with India Women and Sri Lanka Women contesting the final on Sunday. TEAMS PREVIEW Sri Lanka Women Preview Sri Lanka Women had hoped to come into this game after winning three group stage games in a row but instead they were beaten on Friday in the final group stage game by South Africa Women.  The bowling attack for the hosts did not have enough depth with opener Malki Madara (0/59) and Manudi Nanayakkara (1/40) both particularly expensive. Captain Chamari Athapaththu conceded more runs than usual but still picked up another two wickets and she will be a threat at the R Premadasa once more. The skipper hit the only half-century for the team on Friday but all of the top eight made scores in double-figures and they will take confidence from their win over India Women from earlier in the group stage. India Women Preview It has been an inexperienced bowling attack for India Women throughout this Tri-Series but their batting line-up is full of experience and could well be the difference between the teams on Sunday. Although Pratika Rawal (1), Harleen Deol (4) and Harmanpreet Kaur (28) all failed to make significant contributions in their last game, there were still half-centuries from Smriti Mandhana and Deepti Sharma as well as a hundred from Jemimah Rodrigues. Only seven South Africa Women wickets were taken on Wednesday with Amanjot Kaur leading the charge with 3/59. In this final we expect Deepti Sharma, Kaur and Sneh Rana to cause the most problems. India Women have an excellent WODI record against Sri Lanka Women and they will begin this final on Sunday with a deeper confidence than their opponents. Weather Conditions There is a slight chance of rain early on in the game but overall the conditions, cloudy and humid throughout, will not change a great deal across the final on Sunday. SLW vs IND-W Pitch Report This has been an excellent batting wicket throughout the tri-nation series and we expect the R Premadasa Stadium to deliver plenty of runs again in this final. Whoever bats first will be targeting a score of 310+ to have the advantage at the halfway stage. Toss: To Bat Three of the final five games in the group stage were won by the team batting first so we predict that both skippers will go out for the toss wanting to bat first once again.

Netherlands vs Scotland, ICCCWCLT, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Netherlands vs Scotland 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 10,Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ VRA Ground, Amstelveen 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ ICC Cricket World Cup League Two, 2023-27 Netherlands aim for 2nd straight win Netherlands vs Scotland TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NED vs SCT Match Prediction & Analysis Netherlands square off against Scotland in match 64 of the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 on Saturday, 10th May. The match is slated to be played at VRA Cricket Ground, Amstelveen and the scheduled start time is 2:30 PM IST.   the Netherlands are riding high after a commanding 113-run victory over the UAE. Conversely, Scotland are looking to bounce back from a disappointing 97-run loss to the UAE, where they faltered in their chase of 297 and were eventually dismissed for 199. This sets up a crucial fixture for Scotland as they face a formidable Netherlands side. Current Standings – In the current Cricket World Cup League 2 standings, the Netherlands occupy the 2nd position with 22 points from 17 matches, having secured 10 wins, suffered 5 losses, and had 2 no-results. Scotland currently sit in 5th place with 16 points from 13 matches, with a record of 7 wins, 4 losses, and 2 no-results. Head to Head Record – Scotland holds a historical advantage with 7 wins out of 12 encounters. The Netherlands have won on 4 occasions, and one match ended without a result. The last time these two teams met in 2023, the Netherlands emerged victorious by 4 wickets. TEAMS PREVIEW Netherlands Preview The Netherlands have begun their home leg of the Cricket World Cup League 2 series impressively, securing a dominant victory over the UAE and earning two crucial points. Having won the toss, the UAE elected to field first.  The new opening pair for the Netherlands, Levitt (41 runs) and Max O’Dowd (48 runs), provided a solid start with an 85-run partnership, though neither could convert their start into a substantial score. Captain Scott Edwards anchored the innings with a well-composed 74 runs, while useful contributions from Zach Lion-Cachet (47 runs) and Bas de Leede (21* runs) helped the Netherlands reach a total of 272/7. Despite feeling they were perhaps 10-15 runs short, the Netherlands bowlers displayed confidence in defending their total. They bowled with accuracy and consistency, taking wickets at regular intervals. Paul Van Meekeren (3 wickets for 24 runs), Vivian Kingma (2 wickets for 28 runs), and Kyle Klein (2 wickets for 43 runs) were the leading wicket-takers, while Roelof van der Merwe (0 wickets for 21 runs) proved highly economical, building pressure from one end. So far in this CWC League 2 cycle, Max O’Dowd has been the leading run-scorer for the Netherlands with 536 runs in 15 matches. In the bowling department, the pace duo of Kyle Klein (23 wickets) and Paul Van Meekeren (21 wickets) have been instrumental. Meanwhile, Aryan Dutt leads the spin attack with 27 wickets. Scotland Preview Scotland will be disappointed with their performance in the previous match, where they appeared lackluster with both bat and ball, resulting in a significant 97-run defeat against the UAE. Having lost the toss and been asked to bowl first, Scotland’s new-ball bowlers didn’t start well, allowing the UAE to score 59 runs for the opening partnership. However, Scotland fought back, picking up three quick wickets to gain control of the innings at 114/3 at the halfway stage. Unfortunately for Scotland, they then bowled slightly short, enabling the UAE to build a crucial partnership. In the final ten overs, the UAE batsmen accelerated aggressively, and Scotland had no answers. Consequently, the UAE finished their innings at a formidable 296/6. Chasing a substantial target on a somewhat slow pitch, Scotland made a decent start, scoring 65 runs for the first wicket in 15 overs. However, the introduction of spin proved effective for the UAE, as Scotland lost three quick wickets and were reduced to 96/3. They continued to lose wickets at regular intervals and were eventually bowled out for 199 runs. The absence of their key bowlers has left Scotland with limited options, forcing them to rely on their second-string pace attack. Jack Jarvis and Brandon McMullen (14 wickets) have shown promise in the pace department. In terms of spin, Mark Watt (13 wickets) and Michael Leask (8 wickets) have provided valuable control in the middle overs. Weather Conditions The weather forecast for VRA Ground, Amstelveen on Saturday, May 10th, predicts temperatures around 17°C with partly cloudy skies and no chance of rain. Winds are expected to be blowing at approximately 19 km/h with a humidity level of 45%. NED vs SCT Pitch Report The VRA Ground in Amstelveen generally presents a balanced pitch, offering opportunities for both batsmen to score and bowlers to take wickets. The average first innings score of 245 suggests competitive totals can be achieved. However, chasing anything above 250 has historically proven challenging at this venue. As the game progresses, the surface tends to slow down, bringing spinners into prominence, particularly in the second innings, making run-chases even more difficult. Toss: To Bat So far in the series at the VRA Ground in Amstelveen, both matches have been won by the teams batting first. The pitch appears to have slowed down slightly as each game progressed, making chasing difficult. Therefore, we predict that the team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first.
