Wi vs Sco Dream11

WI vs SCO Dream11 Prediction : The second day of the World Cup marks the opening game of the Group B.It also marks the first game of the two time T20 Champions. Its a pity that a team like the West Indies have to play the Group Stage in order to be a part of the Super 12 especially in the shortest format of the game. Unfortunately, that is the harsh truth about West Indies cricket. All the big guns have retired and the Windies are at a revamp stage with their young captain Nicholas Pooran. He will be eager to prove a point and get West Indies glory in the shortest format of the game. Scotts on the other hand, are in a very tight group and would look to get past the likes of Zimbabwe and Ireland to get a Super 12 berth.

West Indies vs Scotland Pitch Report

The conditions at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart are ideal for the batters. The ball comes on to the bat and the batters enjoy themselves on a steady paced wicket. Teams usually prefer chasing here, as the pitch becomes better for the batters as the game progresses. Another quick stat, Virat Kohli’s 133 in the ODI game against Sri Lanka in 2012 came here.

Last result at the venue

Australia (161/5 in 18.3 Overs) beat England (155/9 in 20 Overs) by 5 wickets.
