SCO vs ZIM Betting Tips
Craig Ervine comes into the series with three back to back fifties. We are backing him to play another good knock and take Zimbabwe to a win. He is our pick for Zimbabwe's top scorer.
From Scotland, George Munsey is a good choice for the top scorer. He has done well for them in the last two years and has scored a couple of half centuries and a big hundred.
Scotland have more power hitters in the team thus they are likely to hit more sixes in the match.

Scotland vs Zimbabwe 1st T20 Prediction & Betting Tips
After a successful tour of Ireland, Zimbabwe sets their sight on getting some favorable results against Scotland. The first of the three T20Is will be played at Grange cricket club, Edinburgh and will get underway at 8:30 PM IST
Scotland has not played a lot of cricket in the the past year or so. They recently played against Netherlands and managed to win one of the two games. Before that, they participated in the Cricket World Cup League 2 involving USA and UAE and managed to win just one of their three completed games, losing to UAE and USA. Their batting looks slightly on the weaker side but given that they are playing in their home conditions, Scotland should fancy putting some decent run on the board.
Zimbabwe haven't won a series in a while but they have won a few games. They have defeated teams like Pakistan and Bangladesh at home and had a decent tour of Ireland where they won one ODI and two T20Is. The likes of Craig Ervine, Sikandar Raza was in fine form against Ireland the two will once again hold the key for Zimbabwe if they have to post or chase big totals.

SCO vs ZIM Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
We'd strick to Regis Chakabva as the wicket keeper. He was disappointing on Ireland tour but was in decent form before that. Hopefully he can get some momentum early in the series against Scotland.
Batsmen
Kyle Coetzer, Craig Ervine, George Munsey will comprise a formidable batting. Ervine has three fifties in last three games while Munsey is the leading run scorer for Scotland in last two years. Coetzer is also a brilliant batter.
All-rounders
Sean Williams, Ryan Burl and Westley Madhvere will give Zimbabwe good spin bowling options while Richie Barrington can chip in few wickets with new ball and give Ireland good start.

Alasdair Evans, Mark Watt and Luke Jongwe will finish our team. All are pretty decent options with the ball and can wickets in bunches.

Craig Ervine will be our skipper while Ryan Burl can be backed as his deputy.

Who will win Scotland vs Zimbabwe 1st T20?
It's expected to be a close game but we are putting our money on Zimbabwe to win
Kyle Coetzer and George Munsey are two of the most important batters for Scotland while Matthew Cross is also a very good player. For Zimbabwe, Craig Ervine will be looking to carry on his good run. He has three fifties in last three games. Westley Madhvere is the highest run scorer for Zimbabwe in T20Is while Sean Williams is also a very good choice.
Alasdair Evans, Richard Barrington, Mark Watt are the bowlers we are backing to come good. All have done reasonably well of late. Blessing Mizarambai, Luke Jongwe, Richard Ngarava are top bowlers from Zimbabwe and we expect them to spell their magic against Scotland as well.
Zimbabwe played some very good cricket on Ireland tour and have the momentum on their side. Also, they seem to have a better balanced unit. We are expecting Zimbabwe to win.
