Head-to-Head Record WI-W vs SCO-W
West Indies and Scotland Women have not faced each other in T20 internationals before.
West Indies Women
West Indies Women suffered a 10-wicket thrashing in their first game of the tournament, which means they might have to win the remaining three games to reach the semifinals. Stafanie Taylor scored an unbeaten 44 off 41 but didn’t have any support as they could manage only 118 on the board. The bowling attack just couldn’t get through the opening pair.
Scotland Women
Scotland Women, playing their first ever T20 World Cup, lost the maiden game against Bangladesh by 16 runs. Bowling first, Saskia Horley starred with 3 for 13 in two overs while the rest of the bowlers chipped in to restrict the opponents to 119. However, batters couldn’t cope up with the conditions except for Sarah Bryce, who remained unbeaten on 49 runs in 52 balls.
