Scotland vs Italy live streaming: Where to watch T20 World Cup 2026 match? | T20 World Cup 2026



After a disappointing start to their ICC T20 World Cup 2026 campaign against West Indies, Scotland national cricket team responded emphatically against Italy national cricket team in Match 7 at Eden Gardens. Asked to bat first, Scotland produced a dominant batting display to post an imposing 207 for 4, putting Italy under severe pressure in their tournament debut.

 


Flying start in the powerplay

 


Scotland enjoyed a flawless powerplay as George Munsey led the charge with fearless strokeplay. The openers raced to 48 without loss inside the first six overs, with Munsey setting the tempo and finding the boundary with ease.

 
 


Munsey-Jones partnership breaks Italy’s rhythm

 


Munsey continued his aggressive approach, bringing up a brisk half-century off just 30 deliveries. Alongside Michael Jones, he stretched the opening stand beyond 100, leaving Italy searching for answers in the middle overs. Grant Stewart finally provided a breakthrough, dismissing Munsey for a commanding 84 off 54 balls to end the stand at 126.

 


Brief fightback for Italy

 


Italy struck twice in quick succession as JJ Smuts removed Jones for 37, before Ali Hasan accounted for Richie Berrington. Those wickets briefly slowed Scotland’s momentum, but the damage had already been done.

 


Late assault pushes Scotland past 200

 

Any hopes of containment vanished at the death. Brandon McMullen unleashed a powerful finishing burst, smashing an unbeaten 41 off just 18 balls, well supported by Michael Leask’s rapid 22 not out. Despite a late wicket from Samosa Draca, Scotland surged to 207 for 4, leaving Italy with a daunting chase of 208 to win.

The coin flip for the match went in Italy’s way who opt to bowl first.  Captain’s take after toss:  Richie Berrington (Scotland): We’re quite happy with that, hopefully we put a good total on the board. We can take positives (from the last game) into this one. (On Italy) They are a really good game, expect it to be a good contest. Just one change. Brad Wheal comes in for Sharif.  Wayne Madsen (Italy): We’re gonna have a bowl. Looks a really good wicket, think it’s going to be hard to defend. The moment is for us now. It’s about enjoying and expressing ourselves. We want to make our mark.  Scotland vs Italy, ICC T20 World Cup 2026: Playing 11  Scotland playing 11: George Munsey, Michael Jones, Brandon McMullen, Richie Berrington (capt), Tom Bruce, Matthew Cross (wk), Mark Watt, Michael Leask, Oliver Davidson, Brad Wheal, Brad Currie  Italy playing 11: Anthony Mosca, Justin Mosca, JJ Smuts, Wayne Madsen (capt), Harry Manenti, Ben Manenti, Grant Stewart, Gian-Piero Meade (wk), Marcus Campopiano, Crishan Kalugamage, Ali Hasan
