Team Forms

Pakistan

Pakistan has not made any changes to their playing combinations so far and they are more likely to continue that way. Pakistanā€™s Fakhar Zaman came to the tournament in excellent form but the team is yet to profit from it. He is yet to rise to the occasion of having the game in the hands of the openers to overperform so they would not need the lower order. The batter is a remarkable player and fans hope to see him stand out in the knockouts. 

Cricketer Asif Ali scored the highest in the tournament with 7 sixes, which is a six every 2.3 balls, against pacers and Hasan Ali recorded the most expensive economy in the tournament of 8.70 with an average score of 32.5. Mohammad Rizwan is left with five runs to beat Chris Gayleā€™s record for the player with the most runs in the international cricket calendar year. The only recurring player in all Pakistan vs Scotland T20Is matches is Shoaib Malik. 

Probable Playing XIs

Babar Azam (capt), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Shadab Khan, Shoaib Malik, Fakhar Zaman, Asif Ali, Mohammad Hafeez/Haider Ali, Imad Wasim, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Hasan Ali/Mohammad Nawaz. 

Scotland

Mark Watt is a gem for Scotland, a left-arm spinner, that hasnā€™t been seen conceding over a run a ball in their last matches but he was the most economical player during their match against India. With their opponentā€™s well-endowed batting department, He will have to step up with the ball. Dylan Budge and Hamza Tahir have not played so far but they may be brought in to change the losing streak direction. Surprisingly, they are the second-best of all teams to take down wickets. They have taken 25 wickets and struck once every 16.7 balls. 

Probable Playing XIs

Kyle Coetzer (capt), Matthew Cross (wk), Calum MacLeod, Michael Leask, Mark Watt, Richie Berrington, George Munsey,  Safyaan Sharif, Chris Greaves, Brad Wheal, and Alasdair Evans.
