NAM vs SCO Dream11 Prediction, Playing 11, Pitch Report

NAM vs SCO Dream11 Prediction: Gerhard Erasmus-led Namibia will lock horns with Richie Berrington-led Scotland to play the 12th match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 on June 7 in Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados.

Namibia will play their second match of the tournament with a much more confident mindset after winning their first match of the tournament in a thrilling super-over match. On June 3, Nambia faced Oman to play the 3rd match of the tournament which paved the way for the first super over match in a T20 World Cup since 2012.

With David Wiese’s all-rounding performance, Namibia emerged as the winner of the Super Over game. On the other hand, Scotland managed to grab only one point after the rain washed out the game played against England on June 4.

But in that game, Scotland executed an outstanding performance by scoring their second-highest partnership in the T20 World Cups. M Jones and G Munsey scored 90 runs in 10 overs and surpassed their previous second-highest of 84 in 2016.

Though Scotland made an impressive opening stand, none have witnessed their bowling ability this year. So their batting quality in the middle order and bowling quality remains questionable.

The match will be crucial for both the teams as the result will strengthen their position to have a place in the top 2 of the group points table which in turn will make them qualify for the Super 8 round.

NAM vs SCO Pitch Report

The Bridgetown surface looked tough going when Namibia were batting on it against Oman, and indeed when Ruben Trumpelmann was bowling. By contrast, Scotland openers Munsey and Jones looked remarkably comfortable against England’s attack more recently, when it seemed as though their 9-an-over opening stand might not even be enough.

What to expect by game time is thus an open question, though the deck certainly seems to have hardened up. In terms of weather things looked much-improved as well, with clear skies and temperatures touching 30C predicted by the (admittedly mercurial) forecast at time of writing. If that holds true, expect a bat-first day.
