India will face Scotland in Match 37 of the T20 World Cup 2021 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Friday. The Men in Blue got off to the mark with a clinical 66-run win over Afghanistan. But they will need to continue their momentum against Scotland and register yet another convincing win to stay alive in the race for the semi-finals.Despite losing the toss and being sent into bat, India came out with a different intent and positive attitude against Afghanistan. The results followed as Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul hit sublime fifties. Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya also played fine cameos.With the ball, the decision to bring in experienced off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin as a replacement for the injured Varun Chakravarthy paid off as the veteran cricketer was highly impressive with 2 for 14. Mohammed Shami also claimed three wickets, although he was a bit expensive. India have everything to play for when they face Scotland in Dubai.BCCI@BCCI23,159 intl. runs & going strong 💪Most Test wins as Indian captain 👍2011 World Cup & 2013 Champions Trophy-winner 🏆 🏆Wishing @imVkohli - #TeamIndia captain & one of the best modern-day batsmen - a very happy birthday. 🎂👏Let's relive his fine ton in pink-ball Test 🔽8:51 AM · Nov 5, 202142425503723,159 intl. runs & going strong 💪Most Test wins as Indian captain 👍2011 World Cup & 2013 Champions Trophy-winner 🏆 🏆Wishing @imVkohli - #TeamIndia captain & one of the best modern-day batsmen - a very happy birthday. 🎂👏Let's relive his fine ton in pink-ball Test 🔽IND vs SCO - Today's match playing 11sIND playing 11: KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli (c), Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (w), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohammed Shami, Varun Chakravarthy, Jasprit BumrahSCO playing 11: George Munsey, Kyle Coetzer (c), Matthew Cross (w), Richie Berrington, Calum MacLeod, Michael Leask, Chris Greaves, Mark Watt, Safyaan Sharif, Alasdair Evans, Bradley WhealIND vs SCO - Today's match opening batters listRohit Sharma and KL Rahul, who cracked fifties against Afghanistan, will open for India.Scotland would hope skipper Kyle Coetzer and George Munsey can lift their game against India.IND vs SCO - Today's match pitch reportThe pitch is expected to be tough for the team batting first.
