England cricket team will enter the 2024 T20 World Cup as the defending champions. Under the leadership of Jos Buttler, the team boasts a mix of talented young players and seasoned veterans, poised to challenge their opponents with an aggressive style of play. Jofra Archer is also set to make his highly anticipated return after a long injury hiatus, while Harry Brook and Will Jacks have the potential to be key players.
Scotland, which did not qualify for the previous 2024 T20 World Cup, has secured a spot this time with the tournament’s expansion to 20 teams. Despite being in a competitive group with teams like England, Namibia, Australia, and Oman, Scotland will aim to seize this opportunity and make a significant impact.
