    T20 WC: Scotland Opt To Bowl First Against West Indies In Group C Opener

    By IANS News February 07, 2026 • 14:58 PM View: 122
    T20 World Cup: Scotland have won the toss and elected to bowl first against two-time champions West Indies in their opening Group C clash of the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup at the Eden Gardens on Saturday.

    The West Indies are returning to the venue where they lifted the Men’s T20 World Cup title in 2016. Meanwhile, Scotland have come into the World Cup after originally missing out on qualification last year and being finalised as the last-minute replacement for Bangladesh.

    Scotland have handed a T20I debut to young left-arm spinner Oliver Davidson, who's preferred over Chris Greaves, while pacer Brad Wheal misses out. “I think we'd quite like to have a chase this afternoon. Obviously it's a fantastic opportunity for us. This has been a quick turnaround, but I think everyone's just really excited to be here. There's a real positive feel around the group.
