Scotland Tri-series 2019 – Oman vs Scotland Fantasy Preview

Scotland is hosting Oman and PNG in a 50-over tri-series contest at the same time that Scotland Women are close to winning a quadrangular series in Netherlands. In Game 2, we’ll see the hosts playing Oman, after the latter won Game 1 to PNG having chased down 230 with 4 wickets to spare.

Scotland is the easy favourite not just because of the home advantage but also because of the fact that they have had much more exposure at the biggest stage, with some also playing at the recent GT20 Canada 2019.

Stats

  • The recent tour of Oman saw Scotland winning the ODIs 2-1.
  • Scotland has won 6 of their previous 10 ODIs here.
  • Kyle Coetzer – 255 runs in 5 previous ODIs here.
  • Safyaan Sharif – 4/27 in his only previous ODI here.

Oman

Scotland’s wicket-keeper Matthew Cross scored only 59 runs in 6 games at the recent GT20 Canada 2019 so I’ll skip him for Oman’s Suraj Kumar, who has a couple of fifties in his last 10 games and 24(33) in the first game against PNG. With the ball, Fayyaz Butt is a good pick, picking 10 wickets in his last 4 games prior to his last wicketless games against PNG.

Captain Zeeshan Maqsood is someone you can never leave out of your fantasy team just because of his fantastic all-round abilities and his consistency, performing in almost every game. Against PNG in the last game, he scored 21 with the bat after picking up 3 wickets with the ball. He also scored a smashing 109 against Canada in April this year in the WCL Division 2 series.

Scotland

Firstly, pick Read Scoops very own friend, Safyaan Sharif. The bowler has been extremely consistent at the highest level and also won the Associate Bowling Performance of the Year Award for 2018, which you can read here. He can also contribute with the bat as he scored 40 runs in 3 innings at the recent GT20. However, he only managed 1 wicket in 5 games there.

Perhaps Scotland’s best batsman ever, Kyle Coetzer is a must have in your FanFight (Sign-up and get Rs.30 FREE) fantasy team with 4 ODI centuries and 143 in 5 innings at the recent GT20 Canada. Pick him and also pick the hard-hitting George Munsey who smashed 174 runs in that same series in Canada including 2 fifties for Brampton Wolves.
