MUMBAI: In the 33rd match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, Nepal is facing Scotland today at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium. Nepal won the toss and chose to bowl first.

This is the final group-stage match for both teams. From Group C, West Indies and England have already advanced to the Super 8, eliminating both Nepal and Scotland from the tournament. With no mathematical chance of qualification remaining, today’s game serves as a final outing for both sides.

Scotland comes into the match with one win and two losses from their three previous games, while Nepal has lost all three of their matches so far.

In T20 International history, Nepal and Scotland have met twice, with each team winning once. Nepal will be aiming to finish their campaign on a positive note with a consolation victory.
