What a game that was! Wardlaw saved them with those two wickets as Kenya made a great fightback. With three half-centuries they had plenty of batting in the middle order but too many single figure bats and nobody pushed on past the top score of Mishra on 61.
Machan took three wickets to back up his century, and Wardlaw finished with those two important LBWs to take four wickets total. The Scots are signing and dancing in the changing rooms, as they take a step closer towards the World Cup. After a few dropped catches, they might have missed their chance, but they pulled through in the end to win by 12 runs.
Do make sure you tune in on Tuesday for the 2nd ODI World Cup Qualifier with me Callum Stewart and thanks for following today for what turned out to be an enthralling game.
