What Have The Two Teams Done Recently?
Scotland
Scotland have played only eight matches in the ICC WCL League 2 competition and are on 11 points from it. They had a sluggish start to the competition but are coming off three successive wins in it, beating Namibia and Oman in July and then began their campaign here with a resounding win over USA in their opener.
Overall, Scotland have a 73-79 win-loss record in this format having made their debut in ODIs in the 1999 World Cup.
Nepal
Nepal have played 69 ODIs in their short international cricket history and are on 34-34 win-loss with one game tied. Interestingly that tied game came against USA in 2022, following which they also played out a tie in a recent T20I between the two sides.
However, they lost a high-scoring ODI against USA a day ago and as such they have only three points in the ICC WCL League 2 from ninth and are currently seventh on the points table with just UAE behind them.
Scotland vs Nepal Head-to-Head Stats
- Overall Nepal vs Scotland ODI Head-to-Head: There have been six previous meetings between these two sides and both have won three, which is a bit of a surprise given the pedigree of the Scottish team.
- Nepal won both their matches in the two ODIs played in 2023 in Kirtipur but those were narrow margins – by three and two wickets respectively.
Scotland vs Nepal 3rd ODI Preview & Predictions with Latest Odds*
Scotland are coming off a performance that would keep them in a good stead as they look to steal a march on the rest. They not only defeated USA in their opener but did that in such style that the other teams would have stood up and taken notice.
After bowling an underwhelming USA side out for 144, Scotland chased down that target in 24.5 overs without any wickets down.
Brad Currie led the bowling with a four-wicket haul while Andrew Umeed smashed a 79-ball 98 to get to the target with ease.
On the other hand, Nepal would have gone into their game against USA feeling confident following the reports of their opponent’s coach getting sacked midway because of some in-fighting. And they did well to get to 286 thanks to Rohit Paudel’s innings of 96.
But then in response, nobody supported Kushal Bhurtel with the ball and the target was chased down with a couple of balls to spare.
