| 0.2 : 0.2: Kyle Mayers to Michael Jones, FOUR! Jones is off the mark in style! First boundary of the game! Mayers looks to bowl an inswinging yorker but ends up serving a full toss, it is driven through covers for a boundary. |
| 0.3 : 0.3: Kyle Mayers to Michael Jones, FOUR! Two in a row and this is a shot full of confidence! Jones now takes a few steps ahead and makes this into a full toss, he does not look to hit it hard but just times it past cover. The outfield is quite fast and it races away to the fence. |
| 2.1 : 2.1: Kyle Mayers to George Munsey, FOUR! Whipped away! On the pads, Munsey loves it there, he whips it behind square on the leg side for a boundary. Mayers is leaking boundaries here. |
| 2.2 : 2.2: Kyle Mayers to George Munsey, FOUR! Two in a row! Mayers is looking for that outswing and hence, is starting from the leg pole. No swing and it is easy pickings for Munsey who yet again flicks it wide of deep square leg for another boundary. |
| 2.6 : 2.6: Kyle Mayers to George Munsey, FOUR! The over starts with a boundary and ends with one too! 16 from the over. A very risky but a clever shot. Shorter and on off, Munsey makes room, he manages to upper cut it past the keeper and into the third man fence. Scotland will be very happy with the start they are off too. |
| 3.3 : 3.3: Alzarri Joseph to George Munsey, FOUR! Slapped away! Width on offer and Munsey cashes in! Outside off, this is slapped through covers and this one races away to the fence. |
| 3.4 : 3.4: Alzarri Joseph to George Munsey, FOUR! Two in a row! Through the leg side this time! Shorter and on middle, this is pulled over mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 3.5 : 3.5: Alzarri Joseph to George Munsey, FOUR! Thumped down the ground! Powerful stroke! Length and on off, Munsey stands tall and hits it hard past the mid off fielder and into the fence. Three boundaries in a row. Scotland are off to a flier. |
| 4.3 : 4.3: Akeal Hosein to Michael Jones, FOUR! Finds the gap! Brilliant stroke! Jones steps out, he makes room and then manages to hit it past the cover fielder for a lovely boundary. |
| 6.2 : 6.2: Jason Holder to Michael Jones, OUT! TIMBER! That is a beauty! Why has Jason Holder not been given the ball all this while? Makes an impact straightaway and breaks the opening stand. That is exactly the start Windies would have wanted after the break. This is on a length, it lands outside off and jags back in. Jones looks to flick it on the leg side but misses, it hits the pad and then goes onto hit the stumps. A good opening stand comes to an end. The two laid the platform. Will Scotland bu |
| 8.2: Jason Holder to Matthew Cross, OUT! TAKEN! Another wicket for Holder and the braek has worked wonders. Run scoring has been tough after that and Windies have gotten two wickets too. A short one on middle, this gets big on the batter. Cross looks to pull but fails to get on top of the bounce, it goes off the splice and the fielder at mid on, Shamarh Brooks moves to his left and takes it nicely. |
| 10.5 : 10.5: Akeal Hosein to Richie Berrington, SIX! That is massive, that is huge, huge hit! What connection, what sound and it is a welcome one for the Windies. Also, this shot shows how true this wicket is. On middle, flatter. Richie Berrington whacks it, he gets the middle and it sails over the mid-wicket fence. |
| 11.5: Alzarri Joseph to Richie Berrington, OUT! TAKEN! The short ball does the trick yet again! Alzarri Joseph strikes! The extra pace does the job. Shorter and on middle, Richie Berrington looks to pull but it hits the splice as he is late on the shot and lobs to mid-wicket. Kyle Mayers takes an easy catch. |
| 12.4 : 12.4: Jason Holder to Calum MacLeod, FOUR! Cracking pull shot and into the gap! Shorter and on middle, this is pulled wide of square leg for a boundary. |
| 13.4: Obed McCoy to Calum MacLeod, FOUR! Really nicely played! Good adjustment! He walks to the off side to play the paddle scoop, this is a slower one outside off. Calum MacLeod plays the paddle scoop, he manages to get it past the keeper and fine on the leg side for a boundary. 100 up. |
| 13.5 : 13.5: Obed McCoy to Calum MacLeod, FOUR! That is a powerful stroke! Consecutive boundaries and this is turning out to be a really good over for Scotland! This is full and on off, Calum MacLeod makes room and lifts it over cover for a boundary. |
| 14.3 : 14.3: Akeal Hosein to Calum MacLeod, FOUR! Lovely shot! The reverse sweep comes out, it is hit past point for a boundary. This is a really good knock from Calum MacLeod so far. |
| 15.1 : 15.1: Odean Smith to Calum MacLeod, OUT! TAKEN! Welcome wicket as the two were really going along nicely. Odean Smith strikes and this is a sharp catch! This is short and outside off, Calum MacLeod makes room and hammers it towards cover. King takes a sharp catch. Good little cameo from Calum MacLeod! |
| 16.3 : 16.3: Alzarri Joseph to Michael Leask, OUT! TIMBER! You miss, I hit! A little too quick for Leask and Alzarri Joseph has another one! He sees Leask make room and bowls a yorker on middle, Leask looks to carve it but misses. Really good stuff from Alzarri Joseph! |
| 17.1 : 17.1: Obed McCoy to Chris Greaves, FOUR! That is nicely played! Chris Greaves goes down on one knee looking for the scoop. He is helped by Obed McCoy who bowls it short and down the leg side. Chris Greaves scoops it over the fielder for a boundary. |
| 17.2 : 17.2: Obed McCoy to Chris Greaves, FOUR! Not sure what the fine leg fielder did there? Akeal Hosein has not had a good day in the field! He was pushed back to fine leg but he was standing quite ahead of the ropes. This is bowled short. Greaves goes for the pull, it flies off the top edge towards fine leg. Akeal Hosein runs in but then realises he has to go back. Too late as the ball goes over him and into the fence. Two boundaries to begin this over. Can they make this into a big over? |
| 19.1 : 19.1: Odean Smith to George Munsey, FOUR! Finds the gap! A welcome boundary for Munsey and his side! Shorter and on middle, this is pulled wide of mid-wicket for a boundary. A boundary to begin the last. 160 is still possible. |
| 19.5 : 19.5: Odean Smith to George Munsey, FOUR! A gift, a full toss and Munsey puts it away! He slams it down the ground and it races away to the fence. Can he now hit a biggie and help his side cross the 160-run mark? |
| 19.6 : 19.6: Odean Smith to George Munsey, EDGY FOUR! That flies off the outside edge and down to the third man fence! A boundary to end and that is a big last over. Scotland have touched the 160-run mark! This is full and outside off, Munsey swings, it goes off the outside edge and down to the third man fence. |
| 1.3 : 1.3: Brad Wheal to Kyle Mayers, FOUR! This one is hammered! Slightly shorter and on middle, Mayers pulls it hard and through mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 1.4 : 1.4: Brad Wheal to Kyle Mayers, FOUR! Nicely guided! Shorter and outside off, Mayers guides it past point and this one races away to the fence. Two boundaries in a row. Not the kind of over Scotland would have wanted after a tidy first one. |
| 2.2 : 2.2: Josh Davey to Kyle Mayers, FOUR! Up and over! Really classy shot! Fuller and on middle, Mayers lifts it over the bowler's head towards long off. It lands and slows down. Long on runs to his right and dives but can't stop it. Runs flowing now. |
| 2.3 : 2.3: Josh Davey to Kyle Mayers, SIX! Over the fence. That is easy pickings for Mayers! On the pads, he whips it over square leg for a biggie. Dealing in boundaries now is Mayers. |
| 2.4 : 2.4: Josh Davey to Kyle Mayers, OUT! TAKEN! That is a superb catch! George Munsey did it with the bat earlier on and now in the field. Just can't keep him out of the game and Mayers who was getting into his element, falls. This is full and on middle, Mayers looks to flick it uppishly but is through the shot early. It may have been a slower one. It goes high up in the air towards mid-wicket. George Munsey runs back and takes a good catch with a slide. He had to be aware about the deep square leg |
| 3.2 : 3.2: Safyaan Sharif to Brandon King, FOUR! Hammered! Shorter and outside off, this is slapped through covers for a boundary. |
| 3.5 : 3.5: Safyaan Sharif to Evin Lewis, FOUR! This time it is tickled away to the fence! On the pads, Lewis works it fine and this one races away to the fence. |
| 4.3 : 4.3: Josh Davey to Evin Lewis, SIX! Over the fence! Evin Lewis steps out, he gets to the pitch of it and hits it over the long off fence for a biggie. |
| 4.6 : 4.6: Josh Davey to Brandon King, FOUR! That is glorious! Wow! What a shot! Fuller and on off, King shows the full face of the bat and lifts it towards the long off fence for a boundary. |
| 5.3 : 5.3: Brad Wheal to Brandon King, FOUR! That is caressed! Not a lot wrong with the delivery but it is hit wonderfully. Length and on off, King strokes it on the up, there are two fielders in the cover region but he beats both and the ball races away to the fence. |
| 5.5 : 5.5: Brad Wheal to Evin Lewis, OUT! TAKEN! The dangerous Lewis falls and just as the game was slipping away, Scotland strike! 108 more needed in 85. This is short and on the body, Lewis looks to pull, it goes off the splice towards deep square leg. The fielder there, Michael Jones makes no mistake. |
| 7.4 : 7.4: Mark Watt to Brandon King, OUT! TIMBER! King goes and West Indies are in real trouble. Flatter and on top of off, this one skids on and comes with the angle. King makes room as he looks to cut but misses and the off pole is disturbed. Mark Watt removed a paper, looked like there was some tactics written on it against King. |
| 8.4: Michael Leask to Nicholas Pooran, OUT! BOWLED! Leask strikes now and West Indies are not able to play the spinners at all. Leask angles a flatter ball, around off and this one skids on as well. Pooran hangs on the back foot to pull but misses and the stumps are disturbed. Scotland are well and truly on top. |
| 10.1 : 10.1: Michael Leask to Rovman Powell, OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! Scotland making inroads here. This is full and in the slot for Rovman Powell to go big but he ends up only getting more height than distance. The ball goes high and Calum MacLeod at long on takes a simple catch to his right. |
| 13.1: Mark Watt to Alzarri Joseph, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! West Indies are falling like pins! Flatter ball, outside off, skidding through. Joseph goes way back in his crease to cut but gets a faint edge and the keeper pouches it cleanly. Matthew Cross makes no mistake. Scotland 2 wickets away now. |
| 11.6 : 11.6: Brad Wheal to Shamarh Brooks, OUT! TAKEN! Brooks goes now! What are West Indies doing here? Short of a length and outside off. Brooks pull, it goes more off the upper half of the bat and towards deep mid-wicket. Michael Leask runs in, dives and takes a brilliant catch. It was dying but Leask kept his hand underneath. |
| 13.4 : 13.4: Mark Watt to Jason Holder, FOUR! Edgy! Outside off, flat. Holder looks to cut but gets an outside edge to third man for four. |
| 12.4: Michael Leask to Jason Holder, OUT! RUN OUT! Flatter and outside off. Holder pushes it softly to point. There was no run any day but Hosein was running across without thinking much. The keeper runs across, picks up and throws it to the bowler. Leask misses in his attempt but Hosein was so back that Leask clips the bails off easily on his second attempt. West Indies are making things difficult for themselves. |
| 15.3 : 15.3: Brad Wheal to Jason Holder, SIX! Sails into the crowd! You can score heavily in the last few overs here. The boundary s short on that side. On middle, Holder heaves it over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie. Windies need a few more of these. |
| 15.5 : 15.5: Brad Wheal to Jason Holder, FOUR! Carved away! 100 up. 11 from the over with a ball to go. 61 more needed. Outside off and fuller, this is carved past the point fielder and it goes into the fence. |
| 16.2 : 16.2: Mark Watt to Odean Smith, OUT! TAKEN! The big hitting Odean Smith has to walk back! It is all slipping away way too quickly for the Windies. He steps out and makes room. Watt slows it up and lands it outside off. It is hit uppishly but towards long off where Chris Greaves takes an easy catch. Holder now probably has to do it all by himself. Would be a miracle. |
| 17.3 : 17.3: Josh Davey to Jason Holder, FOUR! Fuller and on middle, this is hit between long on and mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 17.4 : 17.4: Josh Davey to Jason Holder, FOUR! Carved away again! Back-to-back boundaries! A full toss outside off, Holder places it wide of point and this one races away to the fence behind. |
| 18.3 : 18.3: Safyaan Sharif to Jason Holder, OUT! TAKEN! There it is! There is the final wicket and that is the win for Scotland! A remarkable performance by them! A full one on off, Holder looks to go downtown but does not hit it that well. It is taken by the fielder at long off, Chris Greaves! SCOTLAND WIN BY 42 RUNS! |
