Team UAE led by Muhammad Waseem suffered a painful and difficult series at the ICC World Cup league 2023-27 played against Canada and Scotland. They lost all the three matches played, with two defeats at the hands of the champions Canada and one at Scotland. However, when hosting Scotland, UAE achieved a great victory by winning the first match of the three-match T20I series by 8 wickets. Bowling first, UAE limited the visitors to a score of 147, thanks to the impressive performance of fast bowler Junaid Siddique, who took 4 wickets and was later named the Player Of The Match.

Unfortunately, Waseem's team experienced a setback in the 2nd T20I match as Scotland defeated them by 9 runs, seeking revenge for their previous loss. Jack Jarvis played a key role in the victory by taking 3 wickets and bringing down the run-makers of UAE.
In a previous ICC World Cup league match, Richie Berrington's side had already defeated UAE's cricket team by 8 wickets at the same venue. Despite losing the first match, the team showcased a captivating performance with a score of 75 off 45 balls by George Munsey.
