  • End of Over 20

  • 19.6

    Jack Brassell to Safyaan Sharif. Half volley, middle stump on the back foot driving, Played to mid off for 1 run, fielded by Frylinck. Scotland's innings comes to a close with a competitive total on the board, though they'll feel they left runs behind after losing three early wickets in the powerplay and failing to convert promising starts into big scores. Jan Balt's clever variations dismantled the set batters, while Jack Jarvis's gritty late cameo ensured the visitors had something to defend. Namibia's bowlers did their job with discipline, and now the chase is set up intriguingly. Can the hosts hold their nerve and square the series, or will Scotland's attack tighten the screws once more? Stay tuned for the chase.
