The 41st match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 will be played between the Pakistan cricket team and Scotland. This is the fifth match in the tournament for both Pakistan and Scotland. Both the teams will take the field at Sharjah Cricket Stadium for this match. The tournament has been great for Pakistan so far. They have won all four matches so far and are at the forefront of the contenders to reach the semi-finals.
On the other hand, for Scotland, today's match will be to save credibility. The performance of the Scottish side in the match against India was quite disappointing. In such a situation, he will now try to give a tough competition to Pakistan and end the campaign in the tournament with a win.

Batter (Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Asif Ali, George Munsey)
In the Dream XI of this match, most of the eyes will be on Pakistan's batsmen. The performance of the players of Pakistan in the tournament has been excellent. In such a situation, it may be wise to bet on Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman and Asif Ali have been among the key performers with the bat for the side. From Scotland, only George Munsey made it to the line-up as he has been in good touch throughout the tournament.
Wicket-keeper (Mohammad Rizwan)
As a wicketkeeper, without a doubt, Mohammad Rizwan of Pakistan will dominate the team of Dream XI. The chances of betting on him in this match are believed to be the highest.
All-rounder (Imad Wasim, Michael Leask, Chris Greaves)
We chose a total of three all-rounders for the match. The first of this is of Imad Wasim of Pakistan, given his exploits with the new ball and Scotland's weakness against spinners. Apart from this, Michael Leask and Chris Greaves found place in our line-up given their recent form.
Bowler (Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Mark Watt)
Pakistan's Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf has been the foundation of Pakistan's success in this tournament and are likely to continue with their form despite the match being a dead rubber. From Scotland, Mark Watt is the only selection given he has been the most economical bowler for the European outfit.
