SCOT vs NEP Betting Tips
Highest individual score over 61.5
The Wankhede Stadium is renowned for being a batter's paradise. Historical data supports high scoring, with four of the last six matches at this venue featuring at least one individual score of 62 or more. With aggressive batsmen on both sides and a surface conducive to stroke-making, we expect this trend of big individual scores to continue.
Richie Berrington to score Over 17.5 runs
Richie Berrington has been a standout performer for Scotland in this tournament, accumulating 106 runs at an impressive average of over 35. His consistency is notable, having crossed the 18-run mark in five of his last six matches. Given his current form and pivotal role in Scotland's middle order, backing Berrington to exceed 17.5 runs offers solid value.

SCO vs NEP Team Previews
Scotland
Scotland's tournament journey has been turbulent, with only one win from three matches. They enter this contest in a must-win situation to keep their slim qualification hopes alive.
The Scots are likely to persist with the opening duo of George Munsey and Michael Jones. Munsey, the team's leading run-scorer, holds the key to providing a strong start. Richie Berrington anchors the middle order with his consistent cameos, but the team needs more substantial contributions from Brandon McMullen, Tom Bruce, and Matthew Cross.
On the bowling front, Michael Leask has been the standout, leading the wicket-taking charts with his spin. He will spearhead the spin attack alongside Mark Watt and Oliver Davidson. The pace department relies on Brad Wheal and Brad Currie, who have combined for 6 wickets and will need to be effective with the new ball.

Nepal
Having suffered three consecutive defeats, Nepal is already eliminated from the tournament. However, they will be eager to secure a consolation victory and exit the world stage on a positive note.
The opening partnership of Kushal Bhurtel and Aasif Sheikh has failed to fire consistently, exposing the middle order early. The team desperately needs one of them to bat deep into the innings. Dipendra Singh Airee has been the lone bright spot, scoring a fighting half-century in the previous match. Experienced campaigners like Rohit Paudel and Aarif Sheikh must step up, as their averages hover below 30.
Nepal's bowling has been their Achilles' heel. Sandeep Lamichhane, usually their strike weapon, has managed only one wicket, reflecting the team's struggles. He leads the spin attack with Airee, while the pace trio of Sompal Kami, Karan KC, and Nandan Yadav has been largely ineffective, with Kami and Karan KC remaining wicketless.
Nepal Expected Playing 11
Kushal Bhurtel, Aasif Sheikh (WK), Rohit Paudel (C), Dipendra Singh Airee, Aarif Sheikh, Lokesh Bam, Gulsan Jha, Sompal Kami, Karan KC, Nandan Yadav, Sandeep Lamichhane
SCO vs NEP Toss Prediction
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first. Captains at Wankhede often prefer chasing due to the dew factor and the stadium's reputation for high-scoring chases. However, given the specific historical stat (6 of last 8 won batting first), a captain might buck the general trend and bat first to put runs on the board in a pressure game.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The Wankhede Stadium offers one of the best batting surfaces in India. The pitch is flat and hard, providing excellent pace and bounce that batters relish. The average first-innings score is a formidable 190.
Seamers might find some early movement, but once batters settle, the ball comes onto the bat nicely, making shot-making effortless. Spinners will have no room for error as the short boundaries and true surface punish poor deliveries. The weather is forecast to be clear with no rain, though humidity could increase in the second half.
SCO vs NEP : Who Will Win?
We are backing Scotland to win this match. Although inconsistent, Scotland has demonstrated a higher level of cricket compared to Nepal throughout the tournament. Nepal has struggled in all departments—batting, bowling, and fielding—and lacks the firepower to trouble a motivated Scottish side fighting for survival.
Bet on Scotland to win.
