Scotland Vs England

Scotland suffer heartbreak in rain-hit clash with England

England beat Scotland by 5 runs in a DLS-revised target of 109

Munsey reprieved by Wood no-ball on 90-0

England had been set a revised target of 109 off 60 balls to win after Scotland had posted 90-0 in their rain-disrupted 10 overs.

George Munsey was dropped on 90 when Mark Wood overstepped, and he went on to make an unbeaten 92 as Scotland set a challenging target.

However, England's powerful batting lineup proved too strong, with Jos Buttler hitting 40 off 24 balls and Ben Stokes adding 23 off 17 balls.

The victory sends England to the top of Group B, while Scotland will need to win their remaining matches to have a chance of reaching the semi-finals.

Conclusion

Scotland will be left to rue a missed opportunity after they were denied a famous victory by England in a rain-hit match at the T20 World Cup.

The Scots had set a challenging target of 109 off 60 balls after a fine innings from Munsey, but they were ultimately undone by England's batting firepower.

Despite the disappointment, Scotland can take pride in their performance and will still believe they can reach the semi-finals if they can win their remaining matches.
