Scotland assistant coach Paul Collingwood have no doubt his team are capable of inflicting more World Cup trouble on England.
After the defeat of English Cricket team by Australia and New Zealand by huge margin they will try to get their campaign back on their track by standing on their footsteps when they play against the Scots in Christchurch on Monday.
But Collingwood the assistant coach of Scots believes that the team who have never won the world cup can defeat the British team.
They have already proven themselves by felling just short of drubbing West Indies in their final warm up match and the Scots are no walkover after managing Black Caps far much approaching to the score than England manage in World Cup opener.
"There's real confidence and belief we can get a win. It's genuine because the guys are getting closer and closer against international opposition. We fought all the way to the end against New Zealand and it was only a three-wicket margin and we should have won against the West Indies the week before, so we're getting there. That's going to be an amazing feeling if we can get that first-ever World Cup win under our belt, there's no better time than against England. That would mean so much to Scottish cricket. We'll cause problems because we know we have the skill levels and the approach and our first win is just around the corner. Hopefully the guys will be singing 'Flower of Scotland' in the dressing room come Monday." Collingwood told the ICC's website.
