Scotland will be hoping to build on their performance in the first ODI when they take on Zimbabwe for the second time. The Scots were majestic with the bat and disciplined with the ball as they sealed a 26-run D/L victory to take the series lead. Zimbabwe, meanwhile, will want to improve on their bowling display after allowing Scotland a platform to build on too easy. In addition, in the run chase, they made a brilliant start reaching 55 from 10 overs but the loss of Hamilton Masakadza sent Zimbabwe spiraling into a batting collapse.

Scotland vs Zimbabwe Prediction

Neither side have played particularly well in recent matches but Scotland was as close to a complete performance together in their last match as they have been at any stage. They will be confident going into the second game of the series. Zimbabwe, meanwhile, will want to bounce back and put in a performance they know they are capable of. They have several match-winners in their side and know they should beat a team of Scotland’s calibre.

Our tip – Scotland to win (2.63)
