Scotland and Ireland, two of the teams from Group B will feature in the seventh match of the T20 World Cup 2022 on Wednesday (October 19) at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. Scotland started their campaign after defeating West Indies on Monday. They made 160 runs for the loss of five wickets with George Munsey scoring a half-century. Scottish bowlers delivered one of their best performances in T20Is as they managed to restrict the two-time champions to just 118 runs and won the game for their team by 42 runs. Mark Watt starred with the ball as he picked up three wickets for just 12 runs in four overs.

Ireland, on the other hand, lost their opening game against Zimbabwe on Monday. Zimbabwe made 174 runs in 20 overs on the back of a single-handed effort from Sikandar Raza, who scored 82 runs off just 48 deliveries. Ireland had a poor start as they lost four wickets before the end of six overs. They never recovered from this jittery start and fell short of the target by 31 runs. This will be the first T20I game between Scotland and Ireland since September 2019.

Pitch Report

This will be the second game for both teams at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. In the first two matches, we saw batters having a great outing in the first half and the bowlers dominating the second half. The story of this game might be similar to these two matches. The average first innings score here is 176 runs and the team winning the toss might look to bat.
