Scotland Preview
Scotland’s campaign has been underwhelming, with the team unable to finish close games. Captain Matthew Cross will be eager to turn things around in the final match. Their top order has shown flashes of brilliance but consistency has been lacking.
Brandon McMullen has been Scotland’s standout performer. In the last game against the Netherlands, he smashed a blazing 51 off 27 balls, laced with 8 fours and a six. Alongside him, Michael Leask played a blistering innings of 46 off 23 balls, providing the late impetus. George Munsey, with 26 off 22, gave the team a solid start, but failure to convert starts remains a concern.
With the ball, Charlie Cassell and Jasper Davidson stood out in the previous match, picking up 2 wickets each. Mark Watt and Michael Leask have been economical, but breakthroughs in the middle overs have been few.
Scotland needs early wickets and solid partnerships to overpower Nepal, who look more settled.
Nepal Preview
Nepal’s performance has been consistent, and they look like the most balanced team in the series. With 2 wins on the trot, confidence is sky-high in the camp.
Opener Kushal Bhurtel has led from the front, scoring a match-winning 65 off 51 balls in the previous match. His composed knock, filled with six boundaries, set the tone for Nepal. Aarif Sheikh, with his 39 off 23 balls, and Bhim Sharki with a quick 27 off 16 balls, made important contributions to boost the team’s total.
Skipper Rohit Paudel brings calmness to the middle order while Dipendra Singh Airee adds all-round value. With ball in hand, Airee picked 1/24 in the last game and continues to be a reliable option.
Nepal’s bowling strength lies in Sandeep Lamichhane, who can choke runs and pick key wickets. Support from Karan KC, Rupesh Singh, and Lalit Rajbanshi gives Nepal variety and depth.
Their all-round strength gives them a clear edge going into the final match.
