    6.2 inside edge onto middle stump! And the experienced bowler gets the breakthrough. Full just outside off stump, and he gets forward to drive but the ball jags in slightly, and it hits his bat and then rattles the stumps. 55/1
    8.2 short and wide and he flat-bats a mistimed pull. Wanted to get it over mid on, but he doesn't have the connection. That nagging height, a decade of experience, and the man has struck again. 63/2
    11.5 Catching practice to midwicket! Berrington's stay ends and it is the hard length that has helped Joseph here. Bangs it on a back of a length around middle and angling it in. He looks to pull but hits it straight to Mayers. Joseph's aggression pays off. 86/3
    15.1 Slapped straight to cover. MacLeod is not happy with that and is visibly frustrated as he walks back. Makes room against the length ball around off and hits it straight to King. Either side of that fielder and it could have been a boundary. Smith took pace off it and that helped. 117/4
    16.3 Leask makes room and then makes his way out! Joseph's fiery yorker is too good for him. He looks to make room early in a bid to explore the off side but Joseph spears it right at the base of the stumps and Leask couldn't get bat to it. 125/5

    2.4 sliding catch at deep midwicket! Not easy, fielding running behind from midwicket to try and take it, but in the end - success! Full ball swinging into his toes, and he tried to continue attacking. However this time the contact isn't good and it is the star with the bat for Scotland who now shows off his wares on the field, sliding along the grass to take a stunning two-hander 20/1
    5.5 around the stumps. Good length on middle, and he swivels to pull. Swatted straight to deep square leg! Comes off the high-part of the bat, and therefore goes squarer than Lewis wanted it to go. 53/2

    7.4 top of off! Just what Scotland needed for DLS purposes and for the whole game's purpose. Good length just outside off. Sliding through. King rocks back to cut, but he's been done! Watt with a "play it cool, kids" celebration! 58/3
    8.4 DLS or not - Scotland are well ahead! Spin it to win it here in Hobart. Good length ball just outside off. Turning away oh so slightly with Pooran rocking back to pull from deep in his crease. But he misses, and the off-stump bail is on the floor. 62/4
    11.6 Excellent, sliding catch from Leask running in! West Indies are going down and the slide is not gradual. Short in length and angling in again, Brooks looks to heave it over deep midwicket but the fielder does well. 77/6
    10.1 Holes out to long-on! Powell's enterprising techniques don't work today. He looks to ton Leask into the stands but only finds MacLead. It was the longer part of the ground and he couldn't clear it as he had to fetch the slog from outside off. Scotland are all over West Indies now. 69/5
    18.3 Another West Indies batter falls while aiming for the long boundary. Full ball outside off, Holder looks to go over wide long-off. Greaves makes good ground to his left and takes it with a dive. Scotland beat West Indies in their first T20I meeting. 118/10
    12.4 Has Leask missed a probable run-out opportunity? No he hasn't! He's done well and has caught Hosein well short of his crease. Holder taps the fullish ball to the off side and calls for a quick run before aborting. Hosein was halfway down and had to turn back. Cross fired the throw to the bowler, who missed his back-flick before disturbing the stumps on the second go. Replays show he has done enough. 79/7
    13.1 And Joseph is gone for a first-ball duck. Quicker and flatter on a length outside off, it was probably the arm ball. Joseph goes back to punch but only manages a nick. Cross does the rest. 79/8
    16.2 Smith perishes! Tossed up but lands it on a length around off, Smith looks to charge down and go big. Once again, like Powell, chooses one of the bigger parts of the ground at long-on, where Greaves takes a well-judged catch running backwards. 102/9
