Betting Tips

Total runs in the highest scoring over of the match

1.89

The pitch at the Daren Sammy Stadium is good to bat on and provides the batsmen plenty of opportunities to score. As Australia faces a relatively weak bowling side, we can expect plenty of fireworks.

Adam Zampa to be the top bowler for Australia

3.60

Zampa was in good form in the last match as he picked up 4 wickets. He has a good record at the Daren Sammy Stadium and has picked up 2 wickets in each of his last two appearances here. It is therefore worth risking a punt on him.

Having already secured a place in the Super 8 Australia will be looking to continue its unbeaten run in the ongoing T20 World Cup as it faces Scotland for their final group-stage match on Saturday. The two teams will face off at the Daren Sammy National Stadium in Gros Islet.

This is the first time that both teams are playing a T20I against each other.

AUS vs SCT Team Previews

Australia

Australia seems to be continuing from where it left off in the ODI World Cup. With 3 wins in 3 matches, they are one of the first teams to qualify for the next stage.

Australia boasts of a strong opening pair in the form of Travis Head and David Warner. The latter was in excellent form with the bat and is the leading run-getter for the team Marcus Stoinis will be the player to watch out for in the middle order as he has already scored a half-century earlier in the tournament.

However, the other batsmen including Glenn Maxwell, Matthew Wade, and Tim David are relatively untested. Coming to the bowling, Adam Zampa bowled a brilliant spell in the last match, picking up a four-for.

He will lead the spin attack, while Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, and Nathan Ellis are likely to feature in the seam department.

Australia Expected Playing 11

  • Travis Head
  • David Warner
  • Mitchell Marsh
  • Glenn Maxwell
  • Marcus Stoinis
  • Timothy David
  • Matthew Wade
  • Ashton Agar
  • Mitchell Starc
  • Nathan Ellis
  • Adam Zampa

Scotland

Scotland has put up a spirited performance thus far. With 2 wins and a washed-out match, the team is sitting second on the points table with an excellent NRR. If they do manage to upset Australia, Scotland will make it to the Super 8.

The top order has been pretty consistent for Scotland in this tournament. George Munsey, Michael Jones, and Brandon McMullen have all contributed with the bat to give the team a strong start. Should any one of them fail to get going, Scotland also has some experienced batsmen in the middle order to fall back on, including Richie Berrington, Michael Leask, and Matthew Cross.

Scotland's bowling hasn’t been the best and that could be one of the weak spots for them, especially as they face a strong batting line-up. Brad Wheal is the leading wicket-taker for them with 4 wickets, while Christopher Sole, Safyaan Sharif, and Chris Greaves have 2 wickets each.

Scotland Expected Playing 11

  • George Munsey
  • Michael Jones
  • Brandon McMullen
  • Richie Berrington
  • Matthew Cross
  • Michael Leask
  • Chris Greaves
  • Mark Watt
  • Chris Sole
  • Bradley Wheal
  • Safyaan Sharif

AUS vs SCT Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first.

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at the Daren Sammy Stadium favors the batsmen during the first half. The batsmen can make use of the consistent pace and bounce to play their shots. The average first-inning score in the last 5 matches played here is around 175.

However, the pitch becomes two-paced during the second innings, and the spinners will come into action.

The weather will be humid with a temperature of around 28 degrees.

AUS vs SCT Betting Tips

We are backing Australia to win this match. They have been clinical in their performances this season, excelling with the bat as well as the ball. While Scotland has been a spirited lot, we feel they are no match for the Aussies.

Bet on Australia to win.
