Match 32: New Zealand vs Scotland, Dubai

Fantasy XI: Matthew Cross, Kane Williamson, George Munsey, Martin Guptill, Chris Greaves, Daryl Mitchell, Mitchell Santner, Trent Boult, Ish Sodhi, Safyaan Sharif, Adam Milne
Captain: Martin Guptill
Leading run-scorer for New Zealand this year in T20Is with 355 runs in ten games at a strike rate of 149.15 - he is also due for a big score.
Vice-captain: Ish Sodhi
Scotland have struggled against spin the most in this tournament, averaging only 14.26 with the bat, and Sodhi, who was Player of the Match against India (4-0-17-2) can be a handful.
