Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

This 2-match series gets underway in a few hours.

It'll be interesting to see if Scotland can put up more of a fight than Zimbabwe did.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Scotland win the toss and choose to bat.

Bangladesh strikes early, Watson bowled for a duck by Mortaza.
Scotland 7-1 after 3.5 overs.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Poonia also out for a duck, Scotland 7-2 after 4

Scotland's lineup: Watts, Watson, Poonia, Hamilton, Brown, McCallum, Smith, Wright, Hoffman, Lyons, Rogers.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Watts and Hamilton finally scoring some runs, 19-2 after 6 overs.


edit: now 29-2 after 7, that's a bit more respectable now
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Watts finally gone for 18, Scotland 50-3 after 11

Hamilton has scored 24 from 24 balls.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Hamilton out for 29, and Shahadat Hossain got another wicket just a few balls later.

Scotland 69-5 after 17


Doesn't look like we'll play the full 100 today.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Scotland 88-7 after 27.

They may just barely reach 100 here.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Smith finally out for 30, great partnership between him and Rogers, but it was probably too little too late.

Scotland 117-8 after 38

that partnership lasted nearly 15 overs.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

A good job by the tail to last 45.1 overs.

Bangladesh has a target of 153, which shouldn't trouble them too much. It'd be nice if Scotland could take a few early wickets and make it exciting, but with Nafees in there for Bangladesh, that seems highly unlikely.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

From 74/7 that's not a bad total. That being said, it will still be an easy task for Bangladesh, unless of course it is a dodgy pitch, which I have no reason to believe it is.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Mehrab out for 8, but Nafees and Aftab are doing fine.

Bangladesh 80-1 after 17 overs.
still need 74 more runs to win

Aftab is up to 49, while Nafees is still on 17, despite the fact that Nafees was the opener. Aftab is really on fire here!
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Aftab out for 66
Nafees just scored his 1000th ODI run of the year.
List of Most Runs in 2006

As you can see, Nafees has actually played fewer matches than the three at the very top. And his average compares very favorably to the rest of the people on that list.

Bangladesh 123-2,
they need only 31 more runs to win.
 
Re: Bangladesh v Scotland 1st ODI

Bangladesh finish 154-4 in 29.1 overs, winning by a fairly comfortable margin.
