WI vs SCO Preview Match 2 Dream11 Prediction
Eden Gardens hosts another T20 World Cup 2026 thriller today on February 7! West Indies battle Scotland in Group C Match 2. The Caribbean giants hunt their third World Cup crown tonight honestly.
Two-time champions West Indies won in 2012 and 2016 gloriously. Their fifth-place finish last time disappointed fans badly though. Shai Hope leads a revamped squad featuring Shimron Hetmyer and Jason Holder.
Scotland replaced Bangladesh late and grabbed their seventh World Cup appearance. Richie Berrington’s boys managed just seven wins throughout World Cup history. George Munsey and Brandon McMullen lead their charge tonight. This WI vs SCO clash promises fireworks at iconic Eden Gardens.
Pitch Report and Weather Update
Kolkata’s Eden Gardens offers perfectly balanced conditions for the T20 World Cup 2026. Batsmen and bowlers both get fair opportunities initially here. However, the pitch slows down dramatically as the game progresses. Spinners become increasingly dangerous in later overs at this venue.
Teams often post scores nearing 200 runs comfortably though. Pacers need pinpoint accuracy or batsmen punish them heavily. The weather looks good with minimal rain chances today.
