England cricket coach Matthew Mott believes his side had the upper hand before bad T20 weather caused England vs Scotland to be abandoned
Head coach Matthew Mott claimed England held “all the advantage” when rain wiped out their T20 World Cup opener againstThe defending champions started the day as overwhelming favourites against their northern neighbours, who they had never before faced in the format, but were staring at the possibility of a serious upset when the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern calculations left them chasing a steep target of 109 from 10 overs.
Mott is well aware a strong showing is needed from his side after the disappointment of their 50-over trophy defence last year and was unwilling to give up ground in his post-match assessment. “We had all the advantage in that. A wet ball, 10 wickets in hand, 10 overs. If we’d got back out there, it would have been tough on Scotland.
Jones made it clear Mott’s view was not shared in the Scottish dressing room, where spirits were riding high before the heavens opened for the final time. Had the umpires opted to send England in for a reduced five-over thrash, rather than pushing for a longer game, there may have been just enough time to force a result. And Scotland were ready for any eventuality.
