In the 32nd match of the T20 World Cup, New Zealand will face Scotland in Dubai on Wednesday. These two teams have met only once in T20I in which New Zealand emerged victoriously. 

NZ v SCO: Match Details

• Date – Wednesday, November 3, 2021
• Time – 3:30 PM IST
• Venue – Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai

NZ v SCO Match Preview:

New Zealand is coming in fresh with an 8 wicket win against India in their 2nd Super 12 match. Daryl Mitchell & Kane Williamson showed form as they were chasing 111 against India. NZ batting lineup - Martin Guptill, Daryl Mitchell, Kane Williamson, James Neesham, Devon Conway & Glenn Phillips - are capable of smashing bowlers around the park. 

New Zealand bowling attack which is led by the dangerous experienced duo - Trent Boult & Tim Southee - didn't look as effective as their potential against Pakistan. However, Boult & Southee, accompanied by Neesham, Santner & Sodhi can trouble Scottish batters.

Scottish batters haven't been in the best of forms. Kyle Coetzer is likely to make his comeback in the playing XI for this match. Mark Watt has been economical. Scotland will bank on Brad Wheal and Michael Leask to take wickets. 

NZ v SCO Cricket Match Prediction:
