England vs Scotland Live Score, U19 World Cup 2026: Group C action at the ICC Under 19 World Cup 2026 continues as England U19 face Scotland U19 at Takashinga Sports Club in Harare. The match began at 9:30 AM local time, with Scotland winning the toss and opting to field, banking on early assistance from cloud cover and the possibility of spin coming into play later in the innings.

England arrive with confidence, having already secured qualification to the next round through two convincing victories.


Captain Thomas Rew stressed the importance of momentum heading into the Super Sixes, noting squad depth and rotation as key strengths.

With Ben Dawkins, Joseph Moores and Ben Mayes at the top, England boast a powerful batting lineup, supported by all-round options and a varied bowling attack.

Scotland have made a change, bringing in Ram Sharma, and will rely on disciplined bowling and sharper batting execution.

DRINKS BREAK. Just like Tino Mawoyo on air, even we are not able to comprehend what are Scotland exactly getting out of this game with this type of a batting effort. Their biggest margin of defeat in Youth ODIs is 301 runs, against the West Indies in Dunedin, in 2002. That has certainly been avoided but don't know what is going to help with that, apart from a cheap pleasure. At this rate, even if they play out 50 overs, the maximum they will be reaching is somewhere between 180 and 200 and still, the defeat margin would be more than 200 runs, which will be very lethal for their future progress, even if Zimbabwe lose to Pakistan on Thursday. England would be frustrated as well. The Brits picked up wickets in clusters, that too, twice, but are finding it difficult to run through Scotland. 38/0 became 52/4 and then 85/4 became 87/7. Still, the tussle continues. Farhan Ahmed to bowl now. 6-2-18-1 so far.
