UAE under the leadership of Muhammad Waseem set a target of 195 runs against Canada in their previous match of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2. Junaid Siddique and Zahoor Khan showcased brilliant bowling taking 2 and 3 wickets respectively. However, Canada's Nicholas Kirton changed the game's momentum by scoring 68 runs in not out, leading to UAE losing hope, and ultimately the match by 3 wickets with 14 balls to spare.
Meanwhile, Scotland as well could not rise to the challenge of the resilient Canada led by Saad Bin Zafar. In their initial match, from losing the coin toss to losing the match, Richie Berrington's team succeeded in capturing fans' attention. But, they could only score 215 runs in 50 overs, falling just 5 runs short of the target of 220.
The last time UAE clashed with Scotland was in June 2023 during the ICC World Cup Qualifier match. Scotland secured a resounding win by 111 runs. The upcoming match on Sunday promises a thrilling showdown as UAE seeks revenge and Scotland hopes to achieve a moment of triumph.
