T20 World Cup 2026: Scotland vs Italy preview, toss time, live streaming

In Match No. 7 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, Scotland (SCO) are taking on Italy (ITA) side in a Group C clash at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata today. Italy skipper Wayne Madsen win the toss and invites Richie Berrington-led Scotland to bat first.

Scotland has struggled in recent T20 matches, having lost their last three encounters, including a defeat to the West Indies on Saturday. If they are to remain in contention for advancing in the tournament, securing a win on Monday is crucial for their chances.

Italy, on the other hand, has been the surprise package of the tournament, making it through to the main event after impressing in the qualifiers. Although former captain Joe Burns, a key batter, has not been included in the squad for the World Cup, Italy will now be led by Wayne Madsen. It will be intriguing to see how they perform under his leadership, as they aim to build on their unexpected qualification and make an impact in this highly competitive group.
