This starts tomorrow with a (definitely not just another qualifier) first round. Scotland are in a group with Bangladesh, Oman and Papua New Guinea. Top 2 go through and Scotland have been in good form so should expect to get through, with the only threat being Oman who are at home and top the second tier ODI league, ahead of Scotland.

Scotland’s first game is tomorrow at 3 against Bangladesh, I don’t expect them to win but should put up a decent fight. All matches are on sky sports…

After that it’s PNG on Tuesday and, a likely winner takes all, against Oman on Thursday.
