Scotland 156-6 after the twenty overs. Pakistan simply a good level above.

Dictionary definition of ‘mercurial’.
They werent actually that great today, just ticked off the easy singles and picked on our weaker bowlers, and then their spinners blocked off ends and their pace bowlers were bowling at speeds most of our guys wouldn’t be used to.
They are definitely classy but if Scotland can up their bowling and batting (and I think they can) then they stand a chance. They didn’t let themselves down in the fielding department, they were pretty sharp.
Just read that Pakistan's 204 was their second-highest T20 score ever and they are rated as one of the best T20 sides in the world so I guess that adds a bit of perspective.
Anyone at today’s game? Looks like Shoab Malik enjoyed himself with the bat! Chaseable target for Scotland though.
I was there again, pretty poor today though. Well beaten in the end.
Bowled and fielded better for 15 overs or so then it all went wrong, a few dropped catches and mis-fields when looking for a quick pick up and throw. There was one absolutely brilliant relay catch from Dylan budge and mark watt, though, search on Twitter for Dylan budge and you should find a video, I think grange CC put one up.
