The 31-year-old Cooranbong man and 25-year-old Raymond Terrace woman are on top of the annual Bowls Australia points system as of November 28.
The international event starts in Christchurch on Tuesday with Sherriff skipping triples and Scott playing fours, both against Wales.
Competition continues until December 11.
Sherriff said he was “buzzing” ahead of the event after helping the Sydney Lions claim their first Premier Bowls League title in Brisbane earlier this month.
Sherriff was 23 and virtually debuting for Australia at his first major tournament the last time he played singles at the World Championships.
Eight years on and almost 250 Test caps later, Sherriff returns to the same New Zealand venue in search of a title in the blue ribbon event. He claimed silver in the 2008 competition.
