Scotland (SCO) square off against Nepal (NEP) in match No. 33 of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday, February 17.

Richie Berrington and Co. have played three matches so far in the marquee event. Scotland started with a 35-run defeat against the West Indies. However, they bounced back with a 73-run victory against Italy. In their last game, they suffered a five-wicket loss to England. They are all but out of the race for the playoffs. However, if Italy can upset England on Monday, the Scots will be back in contention.

Meanwhile, Nepal started with a magnificent performance against England. They lost by just four runs but earned praise from fans and critics. Rohit Paudel's men, however, suffered a disappointing 10-wicket defeat in their subsequent game against debutants Italy. This comprehensive defeat dented their spirit as they lost their third game against the West Indies by nine wickets. Nepal would look to finish their campaign on a high with a win against Scotland.

SCO vs NEP: Probable Best Performers Probable Best Batter: George Munsey

George Munsey will look to get Scotland off to a flying start inside the first six overs. The left-handed batter smashed a sensational 84 off 54 balls in the game against Italy at the Eden Gardens earlier in the tournament. Rohit Paudel will want to see the back of him as soon as possible.

Probable Best Bowler: Brad Currie

Brad Currie has been a consistent performer for Scotland with the ball in this tournament. The left-arm seamer has accounted for four wickets in three games, averaging 14. His strike rate is also an impressive 6.22. Currie's role is going to be crucial, especially inside the powerplay.
