The Nepal national cricket team will lock horns with Scotland in their final game of the ongoing ICC CWC League 2 Tri-Series in Houston, Texas on Monday, November 4.
The Nepal vs Scotland ICC CWC League 2 match will start at 9:00 PM IST.
Apart from Nepal and Scotland, the United States of America (USA) is the other team that competed in the ongoing CWC League 2 Tri-Series which is part of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2 2023-27.
Under the leadership of captain Rohit Paudel, Nepal will aim to bounce back after suffering a 37-run defeat against the USA at the Prairie View Cricket Complex in Houston, Texas on Saturday.
Previously, Nepal started their ICC CWC League 2 Tri-Series campaign with a three-wicket defeat against the USA on Friday, October 25. However, they later bounced back to beat Scotland by five wickets in the ongoing ICC CWC League 2 Tri-Series.
Having registered just two wins, suffered eight losses and one no result, Nepal are currently placed seventh in the ICC CWC League 2 2023-27 standings with five points from 11 matches.
On the other hand, the Scotland national cricket team will head into the fixture high on confidence after they thrashed the United States by 71 runs in their previous encounter on Thursday.
While they succumbed to defeat against Nepal in the ongoing series, they earlier hammered the hosts by 10 wickets in their opening fixture of the series.
With six victories, one no result and four defeats, Scotland are placed third in the ICC CWC League 2 2023-27 standings with 13 points from 10 games.
Meanwhile, the top four teams in ICC CWC League 2 2023-27 will directly qualify for ICC World Cup 2027 Qualifier while the four bottom-placed teams will take part in the ICC World Cup Qualifier Play-off, effectively a repechage tournament also including the top four teams from the ICC World Cup Challenge League, the third tier of international 50-over cricket.
