NAM vs SCO | Berrington-Leask's alliance and Brad Wheal’s magic powered Scotland to a decisive win against Namibia
Scotland beat Namibia by five wickets in the Group B encounter in Barbados. Namibia showcased some great batting with Gerhard Erasmus scoring a half-century and putting up 155/9 but the Scottish batters, especially Richie Berrington and Micheal Leask sealed the deal for Scotland in 18.3 overs.
In reply, Scotland openers George Munsey and Micheal Jones went off to a decent start scoring 19/0 in three overs. However, Tangeni Lungameni’ slow ball scalped Munsey’s wicket in the fourth over. Meanwhile, Jones and Brandon McMullen kept the scorecard ticking to 47/1 in seven overs. However, Erasmus changed the course of the game temporarily when he picked up the important wickets of Jones and McMullen in the eighth and the 10th over respectively. But Richie Berrington and Micheal Leask built a strong 74 runs stand and took the scorecard to 135/4 in 17 overs. Unfortunately, the partnership was broken by Namibia speedster Ruben Trumpelmann in the 18th over when he dismissed Leask who departed scoring a splendid 35 off 17 deliveries with the scorecard at 148/5/. With just eight runs needed of the last two overs, the match was almost sealed for Scotland. Ultimately, Scotland won the game by five wickets with nine balls to spare.

Need Netherlands and Scotland to dominate their own groups
I've said this before, but I don't find it interesting when an "all time strongest/knockout champion" always keep winning the cups. Need new teams to bring more challenges
