Same old story. 200 at best now, Afghanistan to labour to that total in 48.4 overs.

Why didn't I put a bet on this?

Encouraging bowling again from the Scots. Disappointing start by the top 4 pretty much hamstrung us for the rest of the match.

For the next game I'd quite like to see Leask come in for McLeod or Gardiner and Safyaan Sharif in for Wardlaw. Nothing to loose now against SL and Bangladesh.

Scotland have bottled it with the pressure on in this world cup. The warm up games show we are capable of so much more than this. Frustrating.

This. There is hardly any difference in capability between us and the Irish but they've got a bit if self belief that we are missing. I missed last night but the evidence was there against England who are fuckin pish. We didn't do the basics well even though we have guys who can do the basics.

Watching highlights tonight. How did Scotland lose from that from a position where they had Afghanistan 132-8? Haq got picked off for a lot of sixes near the end (a commentator in the last match said his deliveries were so slow it was like a badminton shuttlecock) and messed up a run-out, plus Machan missing the stumps in the last over was criminal.

Scotland have bottled it, no question.

In other news, De Villiers is putting on a masterclass against the West Indies in what could be a cracking game if Gayle gets going.

With 408 to chase, he's going to have to get going pretty sharpish! AB is an absolute monster when he is in that sort of form.
