– Shakib Al Hasan looks safest captain choice considering his one down batting and full overs with the bowl.
– Richie Berrington might be a decent VC choice considering his consecutive 40+ runs knock in last 5 T20I innings.
– Dylan Budge might be a decent credit saver pick as he’s expected to bat at middle order for Scotland.
– Taking punt on Mahedi Hasan who might score decent runs at down the order while batting first and crucial with the bowl during the 2nd innings.
– Can take Shoriful Islam at the place of Mark Watt who hasn’t went wicketless in last 5 T20I innings.
– Mahmudullah did well especially with the bat during last two T20I series which makes him a good pick.
