The Australian cricket team is set to lock horns with Scotland in a three-match Twenty20 International (T20I) series, kicking off on Wednesday at the Grange Cricket Club Ground in Edinburgh. This series marks the second encounter between the two teams in the shortest format of the game, with Australia securing a hard-fought five-wicket victory against Scotland at the T20 World Cup earlier this year.
For Australia, this series serves as a crucial warm-up for their upcoming engagements against England, which include a three-match T20I series and a five-match One Day International (ODI) series. Meanwhile, Scotland enters the series on a high, having secured three consecutive victories in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2 tournament, albeit in the ODI format.
All three T20I matches will be held at the Grange Cricket Club Ground in Edinburgh. The first T20I is scheduled for Wednesday, September 04, with the match commencing at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM local time).
For cricket fans in India, the first T20I will not be broadcasted on any TV channels. However, it can be streamed live on the FanCode app and website.
The series features strong squads from both teams. Australia’s squad boasts the experience of Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh (captain), and Tim David, while Scotland will rely on the leadership of Richie Berrington and the batting prowess of George Munsey. This series promises to be an exciting encounter as both teams aim to secure victories and gain valuable momentum ahead of their respective upcoming series.
