I'm currently sitting in the Austria of India in the Himalyas and missed reporting for AFG vs Uganda match. But that got so boring in the end that I thought it was worth missing.

Thanks @MANI for your consistent support for the event and cricket.

Again this is a clash between two neighbours. Let's take a look...

Scotland have won the toss and have opted to bat

64m and 61m square boundaries, around 70m down the ground. Same pitch that was used for Oman-Namibia game. The ball kept low, there was variable bounce. A tricky wicket for batters.

There have been a few instances when Scotland have managed to put up a brave fight against England in the past, however, this English unit looks as solid as ever. Explosive top-order batters, world-class all-rounders and a fiery bowling attack. Scotland on the other hand don't have much experience, so would be interesting to see if they come up with a quality performance. For England, Salt and Buttler - both had an outstanding Indian Premier League, while Will Jacks too impressed with a century in one of the league games. But the wickets here are contrasting to what they were back in India. Let's hope we get to see an interesting clash.

Thanks and hope this match takes it to another level...
