Match No.7 of the European Cricket Championship (ECC) T10 Championship Week will be played between Italy and Spain at the Cartama Oval in Spain on Tuesday.

Italy lost both their opening games in the ECC T10 Championship Week against Belgium and Netherlands XI respectively. The twin defeats came while chasing totals. Italy bounced back well to make the Group C final and will be hoping to do the same in the ECC T10 Championship Week after successive defeats.

Spain have also lost both their first two games of the ECC T10 Championship Week by heavy margins. They lost the first game to the Netherlands XI by 90 runs and went down against England XI by 93 runs in the next game.

Both teams are therefore coming on the back of losses and will be eager to get back to winning ways in the ECC T10 Championship Week.

Both sides have struggled in the ECC T10 Championship Week so far. With both sides looking desperate for a win, this should be an even contest. Italy were better with the ball in their last game against Netherlands-XI, giving them a slight edge over Spain in this match.
