SCO vs NZ Live Cricket Score

8.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Jacob Duffy gets the breakthrough and sends Coetzer back in the hut. He bowls this a bit short and on middle, Kyle Coetzer looks to pull it but gets cramped and cannot get hold of it. The ball goes in the air and straight into the hands of Blair Tickner who is stationed at mid on. 46/1

16.4 OUT! TIMBER! That was a gem of a delivery! A wicket an offie would enjoy! Perfect pace and length from Michael Bracewell. He slows it up, lands it outside off and gets it to turn back in. Michael Jones looks to defend but the ball sneaks between the gap of bat and pad and hits the stumps. Scotland in trouble now. 73/3

13.3 OUT! TAKEN! Blair Tickner gets the wicket he deserves. He has been really good so far, not the best of deliveries he has bowled till now but he will not care. Sharp catch from Guptill. Shorter and outside off, this is cut firmly but straight to Martin Guptill who takes it nicely. 69/2

20.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Richie Berrington departs now and Scotland lose their fourth! Michael Bracewell bowls it on off and it is a bit quicker. Tad shorter in length too and Richie Berrington looks to reverse-sweep it. He, however, only manages to get a top edge of his blade and gives away an easy catch to Mark Chapman at short third man. Scotland are losing their way a bit in these middle overs, they need a partnership here. 93/4

36.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Daryl Mitchell has done it as he breaks this big partnership. He bowls it slightly slower, short and on off, Matthew Cross tries to guide towards third man but only manages an edge to the keeper. Dane Cleaver moves to his right and takes a simple catch. 199/6

24.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Michael Bracewell gets his third wicket! Chris Greaves departs while trying to play his favourite shot. Michael Bracewell pitches it on off and gets good turn and boune into the batter. Chris Greaves goes a bit across and looks to sweep it. However, the ball catches the outside edge of his blade and goes towards short fine leg. Blair Tickner there moves back a bit and takes a fine catch. 107/5

42.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Michael Leask holes out in the deep! What a knock this has been though but he misses out on a well-deserved century here. Duffy bangs it short on on off. Leask pulls it and pulls it strongly but sadly he does not get the elevation he needed and ends up hitting it flat and straight to Martin Guptill at deep mid-wicket. He takes a fine catch and Can New Zealand now close out this innings quickly? 262/7

47 OUT! CAUGHT! Martin Guptill takes another good catch and Ferguson gets his man. This is full and outside off, Mark Watt makes room and slices it towards right of backward point where Martin Guptill is quick to dive to his right and takes it comfortably in the end. Not much celebration from the Kiwi players and Watt departs after playing a fine knock. 279/8

48.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Lockie Ferguson bowls a good pacy short delivery angling into the body. Sharif sways away from the line of the ball and looks to upper-cut it. However, he only gets the outside edge of his blade and Dane Cleaver behind the stumps takes a good jumping catch. Nine wicket down but Scotland have managed to get to a very good total. 299/9

49.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Jacob Duffy takes the final wicket but Scotland will be pretty happy with this total. This is full on middle. Sole heaves it to deep mid-wicket. It goes in the air but sadly for Sole and Scotland there is not enough power behind this shot and the ball goes straight into the hands of Glenn Phillips at deep mid-wicket. Scotland are bowled out for 306! 306/10

22 OUT! LBW! Michael Leask is into the action again! He did it with the bat and now he has provided a crucial breakthrough with the ball in hand. This is pitched on off and turns into Guptill. He looks to sweep it but misses. He is rapped on the pads and there is a huge appeal. The umpire raises his finger and Martin Guptill has to walk back to the hut now. 125/2

13.3 OUT! TAKEN! That is a brilliant catch from Calum MacLeod! Just what Scotland needed, a wicket and Hamza Tahir has provided it in his first over. It is of the dangerous Allen who walks back after getting to his half ton. He steps out, does not get to the pitch of it but still goes ahead with the shot. He hits it to the right of long on, Calum MacLeod runs in, dives to his right and takes it brilliantly. 78/1

24 OUT! CHOPPED ON! Michael Leask gets another one! What a game he is having, keeping Scotland in the game almost single-handedly. This is pitched, around off and it is a bit short as well. Cleaver goes deep in his crease and looks to cut it. However, the ball turns in sharply and catches the inside edge of the blade and knocks over the stumps. Scotland are making a comeback in this game, can they capitalise and get few more wickets quickly here? 132/3
