In the second game of the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup Europe Qualifiers 2021, Scotland U19 will lock horns against Jersey U19 at the Desert Springs Cricket Ground in Almeria, Spain. The tournament kicked off on September 19, with Ireland taking on the Netherlands in the first game.

Scotland's U19 team have been one of the most consistent performers in the U19 World Cup. They have qualified for the event four times in the last five editions. They were part of the World Cup in 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2020.

They missed out on qualifying for the 2018 edition, after losing the final of the Qualifiers against Ireland U19. They have quality players in their side, and will look to make it to the showpiece event next year.

Meanwhile, the Jersey U19 side will be led by Josh Lawrenson. They have a good mix of experienced and youth players, and will want to grab the opportunity that comes their way.
