Man of the Match
Michael Leask
Commentry
That is all from this game! The action keeps on coming from the World Cup. Join us for yet another match as Canada take on Ireland on the 7th of this month at 8 pm IST (2.30 pm GMT). Join us early for the build up. Cheers!
Matthew Cross comes in place of Richie Berrington and shares the skipper has a bit of cramps. Tells they have a chance to go in the next rounf and need to win next two games. Mentions they have few bruises today but in the end the job is done. Admits Michael Leask is a guy who lets his bat do the talk. Reckons they are taking one game at a time but are looking forward  to win both matches.
Merwe Erasmus says it is a big rivalry between these team and it did slipped this time. Shares it would have been sweet had his fifty would have come on the winning side. Tells a couple of players have developed and have done well to play on the big stage.
...Presentation...
Michael Leask wins the Player of the Match award. He says he just repayed the faith to a lot of people had on them. Adds this one feels special as they lost a couple of wickets and it got tough but his role was to find gaps and hit hard, not to over complicated. Shares he just waited for the bad ball and put some pressure on Namibia.
Namibia bowled well for most parts. They began well with the new ball and got an early breakthrough. The spinners were excellent through the middle. It was the last five where they lost it. They’ll be disappoint with the efforts of the three pacers towards the end. Had they executed their plans better, things could have been different. Earlier, it was the other captain, Merwe Erasmus who scored a fine fifty and took his team over 150 but they way Namibia played, they were looking for 170 and in the end, they dearly were short of runs to defend.
What a chase! The Scottish dug out is absolutely pumped up and why not? What an outstanding win this is! Berrington, their skipper, the mainstay. They were behind for most parts of the chase. They lost Munsey early, Jones and McMullen tried to steady things but just as they got going, Jones fell. McMullen did not last for long too and Cross was also dismissed early. Then came the match-winning stand between Berrington and Leask. The latter played the role of the aggressor and the former played as the perfect foil. They took Scotland to the brink of victory before Leask fell but Berrington stayed till the end and took his side over the line.

SIX! Finishes it off in style! Take a bow, Richie Berrington. The skipper hits the winning runs. Another strong hit. A slower one on off. He launches it over the long on fence. Scotland win by 5 wickets.

Misfield and two! Shorter and on middle. This is pulled towards mid-wicket. The fielder fails to stop it. Two taken.

Angled into the pads. This is worked on the leg side for one. Singles will do it too.

OUT! TAKEN! Leask holes out but he has done his job for his side. What a knock. Brilliant. Came out when his side was in trouble and has probably won them the game. Just the 9 needed. He looks to go for another big one. Fuller and on off. A slower one. He hits it down the ground but it is more off the toe end. David takes it at long on.

Fuller and on off. This is hit down to long off for one.

Just the one from it. A slower one around off. Leask looks to sweep but this goes off the inner half on the leg side for one.

A low full toss now, this is hit back over the bowler's head for two. No ball too. Free Hit coming up.

SIX! That is massive. That is enormous. My word, what a gem of a knock this is from Leask. On middle. A slower one. He picks it, waits for it and smokes it over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

Lands safe! Fuller and outside off. Berrington lofts it over cover. Off the toe end. A run taken.
