ENG vs SCO Pitch Report: The Eden Gardens pitch is considered excellent for batting, but the soil here offers little assistance to spinners and fast bowlers with the new ball. England are under pressure after losing to the West Indies in their previous match and will need to win this match at all costs.
Scotland showed their batsmen are in form by scoring 200+ runs against Italy in their last match. England's batting depth is their biggest plus point, but players like George Munsey and Michael Leask have the potential to cause an upset. England are the favorites, but taking Scotland lightly could prove costly for fantasy teams.
