AUS vs SCO 1st T20I Dream11 Prediction: Australia will start their white-ball tour of the UK with a three-match T20I series against Scotland in Edinburgh before they take on England in three T20Is and five ODIs.
Australia crashed out of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 in the Super Eight round, while Scotland were eliminated in the group stage. The two teams faced each other in the group stage, with Australia emerging victorious with only a couple of balls left in their chase.
That encounter is the only T20I so far they have played, and the two sides will add three games in this series.
