The Caribbean side, who won the event in 2012 and 2016, were bundled out for 118 chasings 161 to beat the Scots a day after former champions Sri Lanka lost their Group A opener to Namibia.
Left-arm spinner Mark Watt, who took 3-12, and off-spinner Michael Leask, with figures of 2-15, sealed victory for the associate team, who earlier rode opener George Munsey’s unbeaten 66 to post 160-5 in the Group B match.

Jason Holder, who picked up two wickets with the ball, waged a lone battle for West Indies with a knock of 38 but it was not enough.
Scotland, who defeated another Test-playing nation in Bangladesh in the last T20 World Cup in 2021, outplayed West Indies in all departments.

“It is a special win for us,” their captain Richard Berrington said. “There’s a lot of hard work that has gone into getting to this point over the last 12 months. “We haven’t had as much T20 cricket as we would have liked but have played a lot of 50-overs cricket. It was about transferring those skills to the short form.”

In the day’s second match in Hobart, Sikandar Raza’s 48-ball 82 and a three-wicket haul from fast bowler Blessing Muzarabani powered Zimbabwe to a 31-run victory over Ireland. Raza smashed five sixes and an equal number of fours in his knock to help Zimbabwe post 174-7 after they were put in to bat. Ireland managed 143-9 in reply, with Raza also picking up a wicket with his gentle medium-pace bowling.
With the top two sides from each of the two groups set to progress to the Super 12 stage, the defeat by Scotland left West Indies facing a must-win match against Zimbabwe on Wednesday.

“Tough loss for us, obviously disappointed. We have to work hard and win two games. I think it’s all about accountability and taking responsibility,” captain Nicholas Pooran said. “We have to put this loss behind us and pick ourselves up. Sometimes, when you lose games and perform badly as players, you want the next game to come as fast as possible.”

Scotland seemed to thrive in the cold and overcast conditions at the Bellerive Oval and got off to a brisk start after they were put in to bat, racing to 52-0 in the sixth and final over of powerplay when rain forced the players off.

The interruption, however, seemed to halt their momentum with experienced all-rounder Holder sending back opener Michael Jones, who made 20, and number three Matthew Cross in quick succession after the restart. Munsey batted through the innings but his 53-ball knock lacked fluency as the left-hander failed to find the boundary during the middle overs.

Match Details

We had seen the first upset of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 where Namibia had beaten Asian Champions, Sri Lanka in the very first match of this tournament. Now West Indies is going to face Scotland in their very first match. We know that West Indies had won the title of ICC T20 World Cup two times and now they will be hoping to have a winning start to this tournament.

Scotland had been good in recent times and they had improved their team. They were not good in the previous season of the ICC T20 World Cup but now they will be hoping for a good tournament. All major cricket predictors are favouring West Indies to win this match and we also agree with it.

West Indies Reviews

West Indies is struggling with the form these days and they had lost four out of the most recent five matches. We know that West Indies is a dangerous team when it comes to the big events of ICC. West Indies has a strong batting order in their squad and they are very dangerous. If just one player of West Indies gets started hitting, West Indies will win the match for sure. They are going to play their first match at Bellerive Oval which is known as a good batting venue.

Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran, and Rovman Powell are big hitters in the squad of West Indies and these three hitters can be dangerous on Bellerive Oval. We are sure that these three players will perform well in this match. We think that Kyle Mayers will make an impact on this match. He had been good in the recent edition of CPL and we are sure that he will perform well in this match. The bowling unit of the West Indies is also strong and experienced. Akeal Hosein and Obed McCoy are two leading bowlers of the West Indies

Scotland Reviews

Scotland has to give the best performance in this tournament as they are in a tough group. They have to beat West Indies, Zimbabwe, and Ireland to move forward in the Super 12 of the ICC T20 World Cup. They have to win this match to get some kind of confidence to play against Ireland and Zimbabwe. The batting order of Scotland is very good but not strong when we compare it with West Indies. Richie Berrington and George Munsey are the two best batters in the squad of this team.

Callum MacLeod is another good batter in the squad of Scotland. He had played the main role in each and every win for Scotland and he had to give his best performance in this big event of cricket. We can’t compare Scotland with West Indies and we also can’t expect an upset as we saw in the match of Sri Lanka and Namibia. The bowling unit of Scotland is not much stronger and we think that they are going to face a lot of issues in this match.

Pitch Report and Conditions

The 3rd Match of World Cup T20 2022 is going to be held at Bellerive Oval, Hobart. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 170 is going to be tough to chase.

Weather Report

The weather forecast in Hobart is predicting some clouds around on match day but the weather forecast does not predict rain. We should be able to have a full uninterrupted match

Afghanistan registered a record win over Scotland in their first Super 12 stage match at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 in Sharjah on Monday, October 25.

In their first appearance at this stage of the tournament, Scotland disintegrated as they were bundled out for just 60 runs in 10.2 overs while chasing a mammoth total of 191.

Mujeeb Ur Rahman outfoxed the Scottish batters, picked five wickets for 20 runs, including three in his second over, which effectively ended the opposition’s hopes of a successful chase.

 

Rashid Khan also bagged four wickets for nine runs as Afghanistan’s world-class spin attack ran riot.

Earlier, the Scotland bowling unit was taken to the cleaners by the Afghans, who posted 190 runs on the board for the loss of 4 wickets – the highest score of the 2021 T20 World Cup so far.

Afghanistan batters hit 11 sixes, including some which went out of the ground. Najibullah Zadran smashed 59 from 34 balls while Rahmanullah Gurbaz made 46 off 37 and Hazratullah Zazai 44 from 30 deliveries.

On the opening day of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021, Scotland produced one of the biggest upsets, toppling Bangladesh by six runs in a thrilling encounter at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1), Oman.

After being put in to bat first, the Scots were 53/6 at one point, but an all-round show from Chris Greaves and a combined bowling performance guided them to victory.

Greaves, playing just his second T20I, smashed 28-ball 46 and took his side to a respectable total of 140/9.

In reply, Bangladesh were stopped at 134 for seven in their allotted quota of 20 overs.

The Mahmudullah-led side could score just 25 runs in the powerplay, losing Soumya Sarkar and Liton Das for five each. Mushfiqur Rahman struck back-to-back sixes over leg-side off Michael Leask in the ninth over to build momentum in the chase.

Soon, Greaves struck with his first ball of the over, Shakib Al Hasan was caught in the deep for 20, and his side eventually secured victory by six runs.

This was Scotland’s second win at the World Cup stage in 22 games; however, their second in two matches after beating Hong Kong in their final fixture at the 2016 T20 World Cup.
