Preview :

The 12th match of the ICC World Cup Qualifiers 2023 will see Scotland locking horns with UAE in a Group B encounter. The Bulawayo Athletic Club in Bulawayo is all set to host this exciting game on Friday, June 23.

Bowling first, Brandon McMullen picked up five important wickets as Scotland restricted the Irish team to a competitive total of 286/8 in the first innings. In reply, Michael Leask played a fantastic knock of 91 runs off just 61 deliveries at a blistering strike rate of 149.18 to earn a hard-fought victory for the team in a last-ball finish. Christopher McBride (56) and Mark Watt (47) also chipped in with important contributions with the bat.

UAE, on the other hand, are on the verge of being knocked out of the tournament. With two consecutive losses, they are currently languishing at the bottom of the Group B points table with a net run rate of -2.003. After being asked to bat, Aayan Khan played a well-composed knock of 58 runs off 52 balls to help the team post a competitive total of 227/8 after the completion of 50 overs. Defending a modest total, Junaid Siddique and Rohan Mustafa picked up two wickets apiece but it wasn’t enough as they lost the game with four overs to spare.
