Just watched the highlights; I am so proud of the team.
Would have love to have been there and a great shot in the arm for the many people in Scotland who love the game. Long ago stooped worrying about what other people though about my other sporting passion but it is sad to see kids giving up the game because of the slagging they get from their so called mates.
My son just announced he wants to go to the Pakistan game and I'm working.
A fantastic performance from Scotland and a great game. Im a big cricket fan and I hope this result gives the game north of the border a big kick. Looked a decent crowd in too.
Well done fellas.
Awesome today! When England won the toss and out Scotland in they were clearly hoping for a quick game, and it came back to bite them.
Scotland dominated 3/4 of that match and I don’t think anyone saw that coming. Even without the rivalry this is still the number 1 side in the world who have been put to the sword.
Great game that was and a thoroughly deserved win for Scotland.
Was it ok that i wanted England pumped yesterday? :greengrin
Quality stuff. Won't pretend to have any real knowledge or liking for the game, but it was enjoyable stuff to watch it going right down to the wire. I'd kind of expected it to end sourly (as it normally does in these occasions) but what an ending.
I remember, as a young lad, asking my English (living in Scotland), cricket-loving, uncle if he supported England or Scotland. His response was "England. Scotland don't have a cricket team.. well not one you can talk about anyway". I imagine he'll be talking about them today :greengrin
Scotland are playing the number 1 t20 team, Pakistan, today and tomorrow at 4pm with tickets on the gate. They’ve struggled to sell these ones on top of the England game.
Gorgeous day here at the Grange, Pakistan playing some very nice strokes and with a really good support.
38-1 in the fifth over.
Halfway through their overs, Pakistan on 82-2, playing some nice shots and getting a good support from the crowd.
What’s a good score for the 20? Went to put this on sky and they have woman’s 1 day on 😢
Good score would be over 170. All depends on pitch though.
Anyone see what happened with England women v South A women? Throw came in from boundary and SA player instead of running her out she just stood there with ball in hand by wickets. Very odd.
Pakistan finished 204-4. Lots of singles but they took advantage of the short boundary and knocked a good few sixes and fours. Scotland still have a fighting chance, it doesn’t look a bowler-friendly wicket.
Is the Grange the cricket ground behind Raeburn place or is there another one up at the Grange, ie. Newington-ish?
Scotland 37-0 after four overs, survived a catch due to a no ball
66-2 now, Pakistani pace and line showing its quality
