ENGLAND BETTING ANALYSIS

England will know these Scotland bowlers will and are expected to capitalise on that. Danni Wyatt-Hodge at the top of the order has been really good across the tournament so far and it would be no surprise to see her inflict more punishment on the Scots. Explore backing the big-hitting opener to rack up over 23.5 match runs.

SCOTLAND BETTING ANALYSIS

Scotland are playing to try and avoid finishing as the only nation in Group B without any points to their name. England have struggled in the past against quality spin bowling and that is likely to represent the Scots’ best hope for success here. Olivia Bell’s right-arm spin is drawing plaudits and could cause her opponents problems, so consider backing her to pick up 2+ wickets.

ENGLAND VS SCOTLAND EXPERT PREDICTION

The reality is that any results other than an England win would be a massive shock. They are a far better team with bat and ball, boasting more firepower, more experience and more potent wicket-takers. They’ll be expected to dominate throughout and against Scotland and get the job done in a professional manner, winning as quickly as possible.
