Mitchell Marsh-led Australian cricket team will be competing against Richie Berrington's Scotland in match 35 of the ongoing edition of the T20 World Cup 2024 which will be played at the Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St. Lucia, on June 16 (Saturday). This is the final game of Group B and an important one for Scotland as winning it will ensure the qualification for the Super 8 stage.
St Lucia weather forecast
The Antigua weather forecast predicts a very slight chance of rain. The precipitation chances are only 0 to 20 percent, so it is unlikely of it to play spoilsport. Earlier, Scotland vs England, Sri Lanka vs Nepal, USA vs Ireland, and India vs Canada games were abandoned due to rain as well. Hopefully, this won't be the sight during today's game and the match can proceed and have a result even with a few interruptions. If rain causes a potential washout both teams will have to share a point and that too will ensure their side's qualification to the Super 8 stage.
