The opening day of the Euro-Asia Quadrangular Series stayed true to its narrative. The firm favourites ended up recording massive wins while the lower placed sides were put down with ease, seeing the marquee series play out exactly according to everyone’s expectations.
And Netherlands will be wishing that it doesn’t continue in that tune when they face off against Scotland for their second match of the day today. Up against a side who were trashed by 72 runs in the league opener, Netherlands know they might just end up registering their first win of the series today.
Clashing heads with Thailand on Thursday in both the outfits opening encounter of the series, Scotland completely faltered in their pursuit of Thailand’s 129. They were bundled out for 55 horrendous run, putting up a shambolic display with the bat where the side failed to display any kind of fortitude with not one batter interested in biding their time out in the middle.
Up against Netherlands who fell to a resounding 79 run defeat against Ireland in the series opener and Ireland might just be fancying their chances today just like their opponents. They are up against a side who suffered a worse defeat than they did, slumping to 90 in their pursuit of Ireland’s 169-5, a result which saw them being heavily trounced in both the facets of the game.

Pitch Conditions and Toss
Scotland showed us yesterday that if you are willing to play the good shots and not just lash out without any motive at every delivery, this is an extremely fine wicket.

Expect the side winning the toss opting to bat first with runs of the scoreboard extremely critical.

With both the sides suffering massive defeats on day 1, calling a winner out from this series is extremely difficult. However with Netherland managing to bat their quota of overs and registering 35 more runs than Ireland on the scoreboard, we are going to be siding with them for a win today.
