He gets bat to ball but, the inside edge just trickles onto the stumps and dislodges the bails. 105/316.2 MacLeod looks to drive down the ground but Soper's delivery stays low on him. 59/239.4 big hit down the ground from Munsey but it goes high. Vala is under it to take a good catch over his head. 145/4Extras11 (lb 7, w 4)TOTAL242/7 (50 Overs, RR: 4.84)Fall of wickets: 1-39 (Matthew Cross, 8.5 ov), 2-59 (Calum MacLeod, 16.2 ov), 3-105 (Kyle Coetzer, 29.6 ov), 4-145 (George Munsey, 39.4 ov), 5-178 (Craig Wallace, 44.4 ov), 6-226 (Michael Leask, 48.5 ov), 7-237 (Richie Berrington, 49.2 ov)
