Here are the Fantasy Cricket Predictions and Betting Tips for ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 Match 12, featuring Namibia versus Scotland.
Match 12- Namibia vs Scotland (Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados)
Current Form Namibia:
Namibia are currently placed at the 1st position on Group B points table with 1 win to their credit.
The top run scorer for Namibia in the T20 World Cup is Jan Frylinck with 45 runs to his name.
The top wicket taker for Namibia in the T20 World Cup is David Wiese with 4 scalps under his belt.
Namibia have won their previous match against Oman in a Super Over.
Oman batted first and they posted a total of 109 for 6 in 20 overs. The top order struggled a lot and lost their way right from the word go. Khalid Kail tried his best to take Oman to a comfortable position by scoring 31 runs. On the back of his resilience, Oman managed to get to 109 in 20 overs of play.
During the chase, Namibia lost Michael Van Lingen early on. Jan Frylinck then took the responsibility of taking Namibia over the line. He scored 45 important runs to get his team close to the finish line. They faltered in the death overs though and only managed to tie the match.
In the Super Over, Namibia batted first and they scored 21 runs. In reply, Oman could only make 10 runs, as they lost the match in Super Over.
Current Form Scotland:
The first match of Scotland in the World Cup against England has been washed off due to rain. However, Scotland batted 10 overs and scored 90 runs before the rain arrived. This should give them a lot of confidence going forward in the competition.
Scotland are currently placed at the 14th position on ICC Men's T20 Team Rankings with a rating of 189.
Scotland are in an ordinary form in T20I cricket. They have lost 2 out of their last 4 completed fixtures.
Skipper Richie Berrington needs to step up with the bat as his form is a worrying sign for Scotland. They can cause upsets in the upcoming matches if they play to their potential.
Players to look out for:
1. George Munsey- He has been a consistent performer for Scotland in the top order. Munsey can strike the ball hard and also play long innings based on the situation.
2. Brandon McMullen- He performed superbly in the ICC Men's World Cup Qualifiers held last year. McMullen is a rare talent and if he gets going in the tournament, Scotland will have good chances to qualify for the Super 8's.
Let’s have a look at the squads:
Scotland
Richie Berrington (c), Matthew Cross, Brad Currie, Chris Greaves, Oli Hairs, Jack Jarvis, Michael Jones, Michael Leask, Brandon McMullen, George Munsey, Safyaan Sharif, Chris Sole, Charlie Tear, Mark Watt and Brad Wheal
Namibia
