Scotland pre world cup


Scotland became the member of ICC in 1994. Due to connectivity linking with England . These gave them change to qualify in the 1999 World Cup . They have only Kyle Coetzer who have a good experience with the World Cup.

Past Performances in World Cup:-
2007 - Pool Stage
1999 - Pool Stage

Squad for World Cup 2015 :-
1. P Mommsen
2. Kyle  Coetzer
3. Richie Berrington
4. F Colemen
5. Matthew Cross
6. Joshwa Davey
7. Alasdair Evans
8. Hamish  Gardiner
9. Majid Haq
10. Micheal Leask
11. Matt Machan
12. Saifyaan Sharif
13. Robert Taylor
14. Iain Wardlaw
15. Calum Macleod

     

They have Calum Macleod as their key player of the team . He has scored 4 international 100's in the year 2014 . Two of them were consecutive,113 against UAE & 175 against Canada




Strength:-
The things about small teams - keeping in mind format- they are just making up numbers . Their best chance of getting noticed is to upset a good team currently & get in the history of books .

Weakness:- With playing only two World Cup they have a less experience about it. They made up to the pool stage only in the World Cup but learned a lot from it . But playing the World Cup after 10 years and also skipping the 2011 & 2007 WC.  They lack a lot of experience as they have to play against the best teams in the world. So there will be a chance of difficulty for the Scottish team.
