Scotland and South Africa will face off in their first-ever women's cricket match in any format on Tuesday in Dubai. Scotland, making their T20 World Cup debut, have lost their first two matches, while South Africa are coming off a seven-wicket defeat to England.
Scotland's hopes of reaching the semi-finals are slim, as they sit bottom of Group B with a negative net run rate. South Africa, on the other hand, can move to the top of the group with a big win.
South Africa's Nonkululeko Mlaba is the tournament's leading wicket-taker with five scalps, and she will be a key player to watch in the match.
In the second match of the day, India will take on Sri Lanka in Dubai. India lost their opening game to New Zealand but bounced back with a six-wicket win over Pakistan. Sri Lanka have lost both of their matches so far and are bottom of Group A.
India's captain Harmanpreet Kaur is a doubt for the match after suffering a neck injury in the win over Pakistan. Smriti Mandhana will be a key player for India, as she looks to give her team a strong start.
