Pitch Report
As seen in the previous game, the pitch has a lot of help on offer for the pacers. The batters will have to bide their time in the middle and keep wickets in hand for the backend of the innings. As the match progresses, the spinners will come into play, with the pitch slowing down a touch. Both teams will prefer batting first upon winning the toss, with anything over 230 being a good total at the venue.
Today’s SCO vs NAM Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Matt Cross: Matt Cross has blown hot and cold of late, unable to convert his starts into big ones. He is an exciting player who can tee off from ball one in the powerplay phase. Although Zane Green is not a bad option, Cross's ability to play pace and spin well should serve him well on this surface.
Batter
Gerhard Erasmus: Gerhard Erasmus is due a big score in the tournament, having gotten a few starts. He is a technically sound batter who can anchor an innings to perfection. With Erasmus adding value with the ball as well, he should be a good addition to your SCO vs NAM Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounders
David Wiese: David Wiese is a proven performer in white-ball cricket, with his record speaking for itself. His skill-set adds some much-needed balance to the side along with his valuable experience. Given the conditions on offer in Glasgow, Wiese should be a must-have in your SCO vs NAM Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowlers
Mark Watt: Mark Watt has been in decent form in the last few months, impressing for Derbyshire in the T20 Blast. The left-arm spinner is known for his accuracy and clever use of variations in the middle overs. With Watt capable of holding his own with the bat as well, he is a fine addition to your SCO vs NAM Dream11 fantasy team.
