16.1

Brad Wheal to Sam Curran

out, OUT! High in the night sky and gone! A twist in the tale? Wheal serves it a touch fuller and bowls in the slot but the ball shapes late into the batter. Curran clears his front leg, frees his arms and swings across only to get a thick top edge. It balloons up in the air. The keeper, Matthew Cross, calls, runs towards square leg and gobbles it up with a dive. 28 (20) for Sam Curran today. 21 needed in 23 balls.

1 run, Tossed up, full and on middle, Tom Banton uses his feet to slog it down the ground but gets an inside edge wide of short fine for a single.

DRINKS! Despite losing four wickets, England are on the road to chasing the total, needing another 44 runs in 36 deliveries. They need one good partnership to get over the line and will look to the well-set Banton and ever-reliable Curran to do the job. Scotland have kept themselves in the game by picking wickets regularly. They need a couple of more strikes to make things interesting. Let's see how the final phase pans out.

DRINKS! Nothing much to separate the two teams after the Powerplay, just that England have lost one less wicket. The Scottish pacers have been excellent, and they have found movement from the deck, making it difficult for the English batters. Just the 3 boundaries from the bat in the first six overs, which shows how well Scotland have bowled here. However, they cannot let this start to go to waste and need to keep the pressure on the batters in the middle overs, while England need a partnership to steady the chase.
