- This will be the third meeting between Scotland and Nepal in men’s T20Is; Nepal won the inaugural game played between the two sides by two wickets while Scotland won the most recent one by 34 runs.
- Scotland have won four of their last five men’s T20Is against teams from Asia (L1) which includes a 34-run win over Nepal in their most recent such game on 20 June 2025 with their sole loss in this period also coming against the same opponents by two wickets on 17 June 2025.
- Nepal have lost each of their last three men’s T20Is played against teams from Europe, another loss in this game would mark their longest losing streak in such games (also three games losing streak since June to July 2015); their last win in such games was against Netherlands on by six wickets on 19 June 2025.
- Scotland have maintained a catching accuracy of 94.7% in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, the second best such rate of any side (South Africa – 95%); Nepal have logged a catch success rate of 83.3% in the ongoing tournament.
- 37.2% of the balls bowled by Nepal in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup edition have been dot balls, the highest such rate by any ICC associate team in this competition; Scotland are third in this list having logged a bowling dot ball rate of 36.7% just behind Nepal and USA (36.9%).
- Scotland have hit a boundary once every 5.5 balls in this edition of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, the second most often by any ICC associate team in this competition (Italy – 5 balls per boundary); Nepal have averaged a boundary once every 7.2 deliveries.
- Lokesh Bam has scored 78% of his 129 runs in T20Is from boundaries since the beginning of 2025, the most by any Nepal batter; only Kushal Bhurtel (74%) has scored more runs from boundaries in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup than Bam (66%) among Nepal batters.
- Michael Leask has picked up six wickets in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, a four-wicket haul in this game would make him the Scotland player with most wickets in a single edition of the competition (Josh Davey – 9 in 2021, Brad Wheal – 8 in 2021, Safyaan Sharif – 8 in 2021 and Mark Watt – 7 in 2021).
- Dipendra Singh Airee became just the second Nepal batter after Subash Khakurel (56 vs Afghanistan in 2014) to log a fifty-plus score in an ICC Men’s World Cup game after scoring 58 against West Indies in their last game; the last and only time he logged consecutive 50+ scores in the format was for a streak of three games from March to April 2022 (66, 110*, 54*).
- George Munsey has scored 107 runs in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 and is 71 away from becoming the Scotland batter with most runs in a single edition of this competition (Richie Berrington – 177 runs in 2021); he has already scored a 50+ score in this edition logging 84 against Italy.
