United States vs Scotland: ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2 Match Highlights

The 40th match of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 2023-27 saw the United States of America facing off against Scotland on October 31, 2024, at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.

The United States won the toss and elected to field first, a decision that could be influenced by the weather conditions. Heavy rain in Grand Prairie the previous night left the outfield wet, which might affect the gameplay.

The USA team had to make some adjustments due to injuries. Andries Gous and Milind Kumar were ruled out, allowing Modani to return as an opener. Additionally, 17-year-old Utkarsh Srivastava made his ODI debut for the United States, although expectations were tempered given his previous T20I performances.

Scotland, looking to continue their recent form, aimed to capitalize on any advantages the wet conditions might offer. The match is part of the ongoing ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2, which is crucial for both teams as they vie for points and standings in the tournament.
