Bangladesh is going to play against Scotland on this Thursday (8 March 2007) in a warm up match ahead of World Cup Cricket 2007. It will be the second warm up match for both the teams. Bangladesh achieved a historic win against New Zealand yesterday in their first warm up match. On the other hand, Scotland suffered a heavy defeat against Sri Lanka on 5 March. Tomorrow’s match between Bangladesh and Scotland will take place in Barbados.

After defeating New Zealand, confidence level in Bangladeshi camp is surely high. Mashrafe Mortaza  has played very well against New Zealand and I think that he will perform very well against Scotland too.  Of course,  Mashrafe Mortaza needs to be careful about his fitness. He has suffered a lot from injuries in his career.

As for Scotland, this is one match that they would love to win. There are some skilled players in Scotland team and they would try their best to give Bangladesh a tough time in the field.

The only sad part is that no TV channel is going to broadcast this match live. So, we will have to be satisfied with getting updates from the Internet.
