It’s some more action from Group B of the 2021 T20 World Cup Qualifiers where a super confident Scotland will be looking to take one step further towards to the Super 12s stage of the tournament. They weren’t favourites in their first game against Bangladesh but they pulled off a 6-run victory and they now face off against Papua New Guinea. The latter lost their opening game against hosts Oman and will be looking for a win too.
It may be an early exit for PNG in their World Cup debut if they don’t pull up their socks and get a victory here today. In the last month, these two have played two one day games and a T20, and Scotland ended up victorious in all games, so that’s another indicator as to who may end up on the winning side here today.

Numbers

Scotland
This team stuttered to 53/6 in the last game so they’ll be expecting more from their top order. From there, I definitely want an in-form George Munsey in my SCO vs PNG fantasy team while the spinners will play a big role on this pitch as well. In the game against Bangladesh, the spinners pulled it back and caused an unlikely victory, so we want both of Chris Greaves and Mark Watt in our team today too.
Scottish captain Kyle Coetzer is 37 years old now and he may not be in prime form, so we’re leaving him out. But in the middle order, there’s Richie Berrington who doesn’t bowl anymore and concentrates on his batting. We’re picking him in our SCO vs PNG Playerzpot team while among the bowlers, someone who is always reserved for a couple of overs in the death is Safyaan Sharif, so don’t miss out on him either.
Papua New Guinea
In the last game, they were reduced to 0/2 and while everyone will be picking captain Assad Vala because of his ability to bat and bowl, we’d recommend picking opener Tony Ura who bagged a duck in the last game. He’s been the leading run scorer for PNG and has a T20I century too. With the ball, we saw some real skiddy deliveries being bowled by Damien Ravu and considering he’s been one of their leading wicket-takers, we’ll pick him too.

Batting lower down in the order, Norman Vanua can play some really big shots and once again, he’s an x-factor player since he scored 1 in the last game and thus won’t be making many players’ PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) SCO vs PNG fantasy teams today. He bowls as well and in the field, Lega Siaka was a livewire. He opened the batting in the last game and despite that failure, he’s worth picking while Charles Amini is the ideal all-round option.
