As the ICC Men\u2019s T20 World Cup 2026<\/strong><\/a> enter its business end, Group C brings a dead rubber between Scotland<\/strong> and\u00a0Nepal. <\/strong>The clash is set to take place at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. While the dream of the Super 8s has flickered out for both nations, pride and a final chance to shine on the world stage remain very much on the line.<\/p>\n For Scotland, this tournament has been a \u201cwhat if\u201d story. They showed glimpses of their quality with a dominant 73-run win over Italy, but narrow losses to heavyweights England and the West Indies left them just outside the qualification bracket. Nepal, backed by their incredible and loud fanbase, have had a tournament of extreme highs and lows. They pushed England to the absolute limit in a 4-run thriller that captured hearts globally, only to suffer a shocking 10-wicket collapse against Italy.<\/p>\n Matches played:<\/strong> 3 | Scotland won:<\/strong> 2 | Nepal won:<\/strong> 1<\/p>\n The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is renowned for its vibrant wicket, one that consistently produces a compelling battle between bat and ball. At the start of an innings, a hint of grass and the surface\u2019s natural carry allow pacers to extract movement with the new ball, placing a premium on the powerplay for both teams. As the match progresses, the track generally evens out and becomes increasingly conducive to batting. True bounce and comparatively short boundaries invite aggressive stroke-making, often paving the way for high totals where clean timing is rewarded. Historically, chasing sides have enjoyed success at this venue, elevating the importance of the toss, with captains frequently opting to bowl first. That said, recent fixtures suggest a more even contest, as the pitch has also begun to offer some grip and turn for spinners in the latter stages.<\/p>\n Nepal:<\/strong> Kushal Bhurtel, Aasif Sheikh (wk), Rohit Paudel (c), Dipendra Singh Airee, Aarif Sheikh, Lokesh Bam, Gulsan Jha, Karan KC, Nandan Yadav, Sandeep Lamichhane<\/strong><\/a>, Sher Malla, Basir Ahamad, Sundeep Jora, Lalit Rajbanshi, Sompal Kami<\/p>\n Scotland:<\/strong>\u00a0Mark Watt, Michael Jones, Brandon McMullen, Richie Berrington (c), Tom Bruce, Matthew Cross (wk), Oliver Davidson, Michael Leask, Chris Greaves, Zainullah Ihsan, Safyaan Sharif, George Munsey, Brad Wheal, Finlay McCreath, Brad Currie<\/p>\n Also WATCH:\u00a0Frustrated Pakistan fans vandalise TV screen after humiliating loss against India in T20 World Cup 2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Case 1:<\/strong><\/p>\n Case 2:<\/strong><\/p>\n Match result: Team bowling first to win the contest.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nSCO vs NEP, T20 World Cup 2026: Match Details<\/strong><\/h2>\n
