They’ve made a perfect start to the tournament with a dominant win over the Netherlands in the opening game, which has placed them at the top of the table with 2 points and a Net Run Rate of +1.95. Scotland started the series with a comfortable win over Netherlands by 39 runs. In the opening game, Scotland posted 160/8, thanks to Finlay McCreath’s impactful 40 on debut, and contributions from Matthew Cross (33) and George Munsey (30). Their bowlers, especially Safyaan Sharif (2/13) and Jack Jarvis (2/14), restricted Netherlands to 121, cruising to a 39‑run win. Scotland currently sit at 13th in the ICC T20I team rankings with a rating of 191, while Nepal is placed 18th (165 rating points). Scotland and Nepal have never met in a T20I before, making this an intriguing new match-up. With momentum on their side and a well-balanced squad, Scotland will back themselves to extend their unbeaten run and inch closer to the Tri-Series final in home conditions. Nepal Preview Nepal play this as an away game in Glasgow, aiming to bounce back after a narrow defeat to the Netherlands in their opening match of the Scotland T20 Tri-Series. They currently sit at the bottom of the table with 0 points. Ranked 18th in the ICC T20I rankings with a rating of 165, Nepal are looking to build momentum in the series. In their opening T20I clash against the Netherlands, it was a display of resilience and drama. After conceding 152, courtesy of a super spell from Sandeep Lamichhane (3/18), Nepal mounted a strong chase—anchored by captain Rohit Paudel’s 48 and Kushal Bhurtel’s attacking 34. The game ended 152 all, triggering not one but three Super Overs—an international first. In the first, both teams scored 19; the second saw 17 apiece. Ultimately, the Netherlands prevailed in the third Super Over, courtesy of two quick wickets from Zach Lion‑Cachet and a clean chase. Though heartbreaking, Nepal showed a never-say-die spirit. Nepal and Scotland have never met in a T20I before, making this their first-ever encounter in the format. Key players to watch include Paudel with the bat and Lamichhane with the ball. While the conditions will favor the home side, Nepal’s bowling attack and middle-order might give them a fighting chance. All in all, a gripping setup this for the game between the hosts and Nepal.
