Scotland smell blood ahead of England match
Coach Paul Collingwood says his team have a chance to inflict more World Cup woe on rivals
Under-fire England have fuelled Scotland's self-belief going into their World Cup pool B showdown at Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Monday.
At any other time the outcome would be a foregone conclusion with England expected to cruise to victory without pressure.
But for England these are not ordinary times. They have come into the World Cup with a battle plan that is not working and key players struggling for form.
That's going to be an amazing feeling if we can get that first-ever World Cup win under our belt
After a 111-run thrashing by Australia in their opener, they were even more out of their depth on Friday when New Zealand whipped them by eight wickets.
Two games, two losses and a humiliated side are searching for answers while the Scots are talking up their chances of an historic win.
Scotland fared considerably better against New Zealand when they scored 142 and it took the tournament co-hosts 25 overs and the loss of seven wickets to secure victory.
By comparison, England's 123 was mown down in 12.2 overs for the loss of only two wickets.
England's opening partnerships against Australia and New Zealand were 25 and 18. Against Australia they were 92 for six and against New Zealand 108 for six with the cream of their batting back in the hutch.
