Timings of England vs. Scotland at the T20 World Cup 2024
England will face Scotland today at the T20 World Cup 2024, this time according to different time zones.
- Local time: 10:30am
- GMT: 2:30pm
- PST: 7:30pm
Comparison of Both Teams
The English team, captained by Jos Buttler, is made up of both youthful talent and seasoned veterans who when combined, will unnerve the opposition with their aggressive style.
Jofra Archer, who will be participating in his first-ever T20 World Cup, and Will Jacks and Harry Brook have the potential to be the difference makers.
Additionally, England recently emerged victorious in their series against Pakistan, thus the team is full of confidence going into their opening match of the tournament against a rival team.
However, once the competition grew to include 20 countries, Scotland could clinch a spot this time despite not making it into the previous edition of the T20 World Cup.
Although there is fierce rivalry from their group, Scotland is well-positioned to take advantage of this.
Scottish cricket will gain much from the experience gained during the tournament, regardless of their eventual position.

Scotland is an associate team, but it should not be written off completely. Before the tournament is over, Scotland might pull off their surprise, as several underdog sides have already caused waves.
