Preview:
Papua New Guinea will be up against Scotland in the ICC Men’s CWC League 2. Papua New Guinea have had a terrible tournament so far, having lost all of their 10 matches. They are currently sitting at the bottom of the table with no points to their name.

Scotland, on the other hand, have had a lot of success against Papua New Guinea in their previous meetings. They came out victorious in the last 2 matches against Oman and Papua New Guinea by 18 runs and 6 wickets respectively. They currently hold the third spot in the standings with 13 points.

Pitch Report:
We can say it’s more of a bowling-friendly wicket and even batters will be getting opportunities to score runs if they play according to the merit of the ball. The team’s chasing has won 4 of the last 5 matches played here. Bowling first is an excellent option.
