West Indies U-19 vs Scotland Chance of Winning
West Indies are expected to steamroll Scotland U19 in their second match of the Under-19 World Cup 2024. West Indies lost their first match against hosts South Africa but showed some serious intent. Chasing 286, West Indies fell 31 runs short, but scored 254 runs in just 40.1 overs.
Scotland U19, on the other hand, scored 174 runs in 49.2 as England won by seven wickets and 142 balls to spare. Handling an intentful West Indies side is not going to be easy for Scotland.
West Indies U19 have also won each of their last three matches against Scotland U19, and that is also certain of giving them a lot of psychological advantage. Scotland can be in a situation where they freeze out in front of attacking cricket from the West Indies.
