The Scots will be disappointed not to put up a better fight after loosing by 152 runs with their top scorer only managed 33 from Iqbal. India A bowled and fielded with aggression, probably eager to make amends after their shock defeat on Wednesday.

Kulkarni finished with 5-29 off nine overs and Abdulla and his double-bounce tactics chipped in with 3-21 off 7.4. The result was an emphatic victory for India A who now travel to England to play a tri-series with the England Lions and West Indies A whereas the Scots travel to the Netherlands for the World Cricket League.

There will be some post-mortem in the Scottish camp today to see exactly went wrong but India A were definitely a class above them. Thanks for joining us here today at Titwood in Glasgow where your ball-by-ball commentary was brought to you by Callum Stewart.

I will be back on the keyboard for the World Cricket League starting on July 1st but for now from all of us here at cricinfo, thanks for logging on and good afternoon.
