    The difference that one big partnership makes to an innings.

    Phillips finding it very difficult to middle it.

    Scotland have some excellent bowlers, and some proper shit ones.

    No idea why Sharif didn't get a 3rd over earlier on.

    Same as Pakistan, we seem to be struggling with timing a bit. Quite a few mishits.

    Looks like he's trying too hard

    Guptill is completely fucked. But still gets 2 6's.

    It's really poor captaincy by Scotland. Sharif 2-2 after 2. Captain holds him back for the later ones. Goes for 17. Needed to keep the pressure on.

    2-2 after 2 and now goes for 17 in his 3rd. That’s T20 for ya

    @majorrage it’s a fine line in this format. You want to keep your good bowlers with 1 or maybe 2 overs up your sleeve.

    Guptill is completely and utterly fucked but is still hitting 6's!

    Doubt he will field at the start of the innings!

    Sort of. If you are a minnow though and you have one of the bigger teams in a bit of trouble, surely you continue to press. It's unlikely you'll win by trying to keep the score down. Really needed the wickets.

    I am hoping he doesn't field, even though he is one of our best fielders..he needs to re hydrate and rest

    Probably better that Phillips goes. He’s struggled.

    Really good bowling at the end by Scotland. 172 total.

    Have no idea about Scotland's batting but that's a competitive total for any team in Dubai so far.

    Great innings from Guppy, and good to see him get into a bit of form.

    We should really have got to 190 with 5 wickets down, but some credit to Scotland, especially that spinner, for some decent bowling.

    Had to laugh at the commentators saying Scotland were "well on top" at 52/3. I thought at the time we were on track for 170 odd.

    How on earth was Guptill so shattered? He looked out on his feet by the tenth over.

    I know it's hot, but they're professional athletes. The bowlers didn't seem to be too perturbed.

    Edit: great innings obviously

    Watt is a class T20 spinner. Very hard to get away.

    Scotland making it look really easy out there. Scoring runs at will. Milne goes for 5 4's in a row.

    And now Sodhi goes for 6.

    Really easy for Scotland.
