George Munsey soon brought up his first T20 World Cup fifty by nudging Joseph for a single. Odean Smith (31/1) cut short the dangerous-looking MacLeod’s cameo by having him caught at cover by Brandon King. MacLeod and Munsey milked Akeal Hosein’s final over for 10 runs thanks to some brilliant running between the wickets and a beautiful boundary by MacLeod.
Richie Berrington (16 off 14 balls) began to free his arm as he deposited Akeal Hosein (31/0) for a massive six in the 11th over, but couldn’t keep the momentum going as he pulled a short delivery from Joseph in the very next over, straight to Mayers at short mid-wicket, who pouched the offering with glee.Ĭalum MacLeod (23 off 14 balls) showed aggressive intent early on as he pulled Holder for a four before hitting Obed McCoy for consecutive boundaries in the next over, which yielded 11 runs as the scoring rate began to rise. After the 10th over, Scotland were 72 for the loss of 2 wickets, a far cry from 50 for no loss after the 5th over. The two quick wickets pegged back the early impetus given by the openers as George Munsey held fort at one end. George Munsey celebrating his half-century. The new man in, Matthew Cross (3 off 5 balls), was caught by Shamarh Brooks at mid-on as he tried to swat a back-of-length delivery from Holder in his second over of the spell. He castled Michael Jones (20 off 17 balls) with one that nipped back at the right-hander from a good length in the 7th over. Jason Holder (14/2) bowled the first over after the powerplay struck immediately as he struck twice in consecutive overs.
After a 45-minute rain-induced break, West Indies lost their first review as McCoy appealed again for an LBW against Munsey, only for the replays to show that the impact was outside the off stump while being a long way down the pitch.
