The 8th match of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 will be played on Sunday, October 6 between West Indies women and Scotland women at 7:30 pm at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai. 

Both the West Indies and Scotland teams had to face defeat in the first match of the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024. This match is going to be the second match of the tournament for West Indies and Scotland. Both the teams would like to strengthen their position in the Points Table by looking for victory in this match.

West Indies suffered a humiliating defeat

One of the favorites of the tournament, West Indies suffered a humiliating 10-wicket defeat against South Africa in their opening game of the campaign. Captain Hayley Matthews is one of their consistent performers but she flopped in the game and others too failed to deliver. Stafanie Taylor tried her best to give the team some momentum but it was not enough. The bowling unit was disappointed as well.

Scotland gave a tough fight to Bangladesh

Meanwhile, the Kathryn Bryce-led side did suffer a loss in their opening game against Bangladesh but it was an impressive effort nonetheless. Sarah Bryce notably made 49* runs while Saskia Horley picked up three wickets.
