The battle for Group B supremacy intensifies as Scotland and Thailand face off in an important ICC Women's T20 World Cup qualifiers.
Thailand enters this match with massive momentum, having just secured a dramatic one-run victory over Zimbabwe.
Nannapat Koncharoenkai continues to anchor their innings with her consistent stroke play, while their spin attack, led by Onnicha Kamchomphu, remains the most disciplined in the tournament.
Historically, the Thais hold a psychological edge, winning the majority of their recent T20I encounters against the Scots.
Scotland is currently fighting to maintain their standing after a mixed start to the qualifiers.
While they show flashes of brilliance, particularly through the all-round excellence of Kathryn Bryce, they are coming off a tense previous match where their middle order struggled under pressure.
To counter Thailand’s spin-heavy strategy, the Scots rely heavily on the pace of Rachel Slater to disrupt the Thai top order early.
Scotland Women won the toss and chose to bowl first.
