In a fixture that could determine which two teams qualify directly for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015, Afghanistan will face Scotland on 6 and 8 March at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, a match-up that Afghanistan must win to keep its hopes alive for a top-two finish.
Currently, only three points separate the top four teams in the WCL Championship, with Scotland in second place and Afghanistan four points behind, in fifth. At the end of the seven-round competition, the top two teams will qualify directly for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015, to be held in Australia and New Zealand. With the leader board so close, both Afghanistan and Scotland are aware that their fixture is a pivotal one.
Scotland has previously appeared in two ICC Cricket World Cups (1999 and 2007), and the side's captain Gordon Drummond says qualification for the ICC Cricket World Cup in 2015 is the primary motivator for his team.
