Inglis helped Australia pille up 196 before Scotland were bowled out for 126 with Stoinis and Green picking up a combined 6 for 39.
Josh Inglis delivered a stunning performance, achieving a 43-ball century as Australia dominated Scotland by 70 runs in the second Twenty20 match, securing the series victory with one game remaining. This remarkable feat marks the fastest hundred by an Australian batter to date.
Following Travis Head's impressive 25-ball 80 in the previous match, his early dismissal on Friday paved the way for Inglis to take the spotlight. Inglis showcased his prowess by smashing seven fours and seven sixes en route to a remarkable 103 runs, boasting a strike rate exceeding 200.

However, Cameron Green steadied the ship with a composed 36 off 29 balls, allowing Inglis to propel Australia towards victory. Inglis was eventually dismissed after playing a shot straight to cover off Chris Sole.
Scotland struggled to make an impact, with only two batters reaching double figures as Marcus Stoinis shone with figures of 4-23 in 23 deliveries.
