Scotland vs Papua New Guinea 5th T20 Match Prediction
Get to Know Who will win SCO vs PNG, T20 World Cup 2021 match and toss Prediction with Head to Head stats, Playing 11, Dream11, Live score & winning percentage.
George Munsey hit 29 from 23 balls at the top of the order for Scotland in their win over Bangladesh on Sunday. The left-hander is a strong choice for their highest run scorer in this match. With the ball, Brad Wheal starred with figures of 3-24 in the opening game. He is our pick for Scotland’s top wicket taker against PNG.
Captain Assad Vala hit the first half-century of the tournament in PNG’s 129-9 against Oman. We are backing him to hit PNG’s highest score in this fixture. All of the PNG bowlers went wicketless on Sunday but Nosaina Pokana impressed with his accuracy and economy rate. He is our prediction for their top wicket-taker against Scotland.
We expect to see a dominant Scotland performance with bat and ball in this match. As a result, our tip for the Player of The Match Award is Scotland’s opening batter George Munsey.

Scotland vs Papua New Guinea Match Prediction & Betting Tips, T20 World Cup 2021
Match 5 of the 2021 T20 World Cup brings Group B’s Scotland and Papua New Guinea together on Tuesday afternoon in Muscat. Scotland pulled off an upset in their opening game on Sunday, defeating Bangladesh by 6 runs. PNG were well beaten by Oman by 10 wickets earlier in the day. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground at 14:00 local time.
Scotland had impressed with warm-up victories but the win over Bangladesh has really caused the cricketing world to stand up and take notice. They have plenty of momentum and should have more than enough to beat PNG.
There were very few positives for PNG to take out of the defeat against Oman. However, it is unlikely that they will find themselves 0-2 again and a strong base at the top of the order will give them a fighting chance.

The ‘Purple Lids’ reported no injury worries or concerns after their shock opening day win over Bangladesh in Group B. We expect Kyle Coetzer to lead an unchanged XI in the knowledge that another victory will go a long way to booking their place in the Super12s.
SCO Key Players
George Munsey - The opener will have been disappointed to be bowled after hitting only 29 on Sunday. He hit 2 sixes and 2 fours during his 23 ball stay at the crease.
Chris Greaves - In the side predominantly for his bowling, the leg-spinner hit 45 from 28 balls in his first innings with the bat at international level.
Brad Wheal - The South African born pace bowler recorded his second 3 wicket haul in an IT20 in only his seventh appearance.
SCO Team Form
Scotland have won two of their last three IT20 games and look to be peaking at the right time for this T20 World Cup.

Kyle Coetzer (c), George Munsey, Matthew Cross (wk), Richard Berrington, Calum Macleod, Michael Leask, Chris Greaves, Mark Watt, Josh Davey, Safyaan Sharif, Brad Wheal
SCO vs PNG Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
Matthew Cross (8.5) will be our wicket-keeper. The Scotland keeper had a quiet game on Sunday but will be looking to score valuable quick runs if called upon in this match.
Batsmen
George Munsey (9.5), Tony Ura (9.5) and Kyle Coetzer (9) are our batsmen. Munsey showed that he is a top drawer batter against Bangladesh.
All-rounders
Assad Vala (9.5) and Charles Amini (9.5) will be our all-rounders. Vala produced an excellent innings with the bat for PNG in their opening game.
Bowlers
Safyaan Sharif (9), Nosaina Pokana (9), Mark Watt (8.5), Brad Wheal (8) and Chris Greaves (8) will be our bowlers. Greaves and Wheal were the standout bowlers for Scotland against Bangladesh.

Scotland vs Papua New Guinea Match Prediction
Papua New Guinea Team News & Playing 11
PNG Team News
PNG’s first ever experience of a cricket World Cup ended with a heavy defeat on Sunday but it would be foolish to make wholesale changes. In reality, the XI who took to the field against Oman are the most talented in the squad and, with no knocks or injuries, we expect to see an unchanged side.
PNG Key Players
Tony Ura- With ODI and IT20 centuries to his name, Ura will be expected to contribute far more than his 5-ball duck against Oman in this match.
Asad Vala- The captain stepped up when his country really needed him on Sunday. He hit 7 boundaries in his 43-ball 56.
Nosain Pokana- The left-arm fast bowler went at only 7.50 an over against Oman and looked like a level above his team-mates in the game against Oman in T20 World Cup 2021.
PNG Team Form
Unfortunately for PNG, they are in poor form and are showing few signs of coming to the end of the run. They have lost their last four IT20s
Papua New Guinea Predicted Playing 11
Lega Siaka, Tony Ura, Assad Vala (c), Charles Amini, Sese Bau, Simon Atai, Norman Vanua, Kiplin Doriga, Damien Ravu, Kabua Vagi Morea, Nosaina Pokana

Who will win Scotland vs Papua New Guinea T20 Match?
Although Scotland won and PNG were heavily beaten, the only player to make a half-century from these teams on Sunday was PNG’s captain.
We are backing Kyle Coetzer, George Munsey and Richie Berrington to be the top batsmen for Scotland. Munsey looked very impressive at the top of the order on Sunday.
For Papua New Guinea, our picks with the bat are Tony Ura, Assad Vala and Charles Amini. Assad Vala did a fantastic job of rebuilding the innings from 0-2 in the opening match.
Brad Wheal, Alasdair Evans and Mark Watt are our tips with the ball for Scotland. Wheal picked up 3 crucial wickets at different stages of the game on Sunday.
Our tips for Papua New Guinea’s top bowlers are Norman Vanua, Damien Ravu and Nosaina Pokana. Although the attack went wicketless against Oman, we expect them to dismiss batters in this match.
After Scotland’s heroic win over Bangladesh and PNG’s heavy defeat against Oman, the experts and bookmakers are coming down heavily in favour of another Scotland win. We agree and expect to see Scotland play in an attacking manner as they look to keep pace with Oman’s high net-run-rate in the table.
