    The two-time T20 World Cup champions will have to compete in the qualifier after failing to make it directly into the competition.

    West Indies are missing a handful of their star players. Along with Gayle, the side is without Kieron Pollard, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, and Lendl Simmons. In this tournament, Nicholas Pooran will captain the team.

    On the other side, Scotland won their warm-up encounter against the Netherlands. Even though the victory was slim, the squad performed admirably.

    Scotland can be the Windies' party spoiler. They have competed in ICC events and come out on top against top teams.

    West Indies Players to watch:

    1. Kyle Mayers, a talented batter, has been one of West Indies' most consistent performers in recent years

    2. Akeal Hosein: Akeal Hosein of the West Indies could be expected to play an essential part in the team's first match against Scotland.

    Scotland Players to watch:

    1. Richie Berrington: The batting all-rounder is the pick of the batter as he has won matches for his team.

    2. Mark Watt: He has shown consistency in bowling in the last matches and is the pick of the bowler.

    Pitch Report

    When a high-scoring game is on the horizon, the surface at the Bellerive Oval often helps the hitters. To be effective, bowlers must change their lines and lengths. The captain who wins the toss may prefer to bat first.
