Richard Berrington would have to lead from the front in order to help Scotland reach the Group Stage. His first match against the Windies was not what he would have expected for but the victory shall give him a lot of confidence going forward.
Mark Watt is a seasoned left arm orthodox bowler for the Scotts and he can always prove to be lethal. He played a crucial role in that win against the Windies as he grabbed three important scalps.

The Irish captain needs to lead from the front all the more after that defeat against Zimbabwe. Their chances for qualification have taken a massive hit and thus, Andrew Balbirnie should make sure of getting his team through.
Joshua Little is the strike bowler for the Irish. His left arm medium pace should help him generate some bounce on the pitches of Australia. He proved it by bagging three wickets for his team against Zimbabwe.
