Match Preview
Scotland enters this game under pressure after losing their tournament opener to the West Indies by 35 runs. Despite the loss, captain Richie Berrington showed good form with a quickfire 42, and the team will rely on the explosive George Munsey to provide a strong start at the top.
Italy, making their historic World Cup debut, arrives with high morale after a successful qualification campaign in which they famously defeated Scotland to secure their spot. Led by Wayne Madsen, the Italian squad features several professional players with English county and Australian domestic experience, making them a dangerous opponent in these conditions.
For Scotland, this is a must-win game to keep their Super Eight hopes alive in a tough Group C that includes England and the West Indies. A second defeat would likely end their chances of progression.
Italy views this as a prime opportunity to prove their qualification was no fluke; a victory here would put them in a strong position before facing Nepal and England. The battle between Italy’s Harry Manenti, who dominated the qualifiers, and Scotland’s top order will be the defining tactical subplot.
