10.10pm Again, what a game. Heartbreak for Scotland but that's sport for you. West Indies will feel jubilant. Do join us tomorrow for more World Cup action. For now, from me - Abhijato - and Sudeep, Harshith, Sudarshanan, it's a hearty goodbye.

And finally, Hayley Matthews, the West Indies captain: "Very very close game, glad we got over the line. I thought they bowled some really good areas, cramped for room. Myself and others struggled for options. Really looking to make a difference. Was really good to see [Taylor], different role for her, knows what to go to when under pressure. We noticed spin was probably key. Campbell sick since this morning. Dottin wants to put her hand up and do it for the team. Because she cares so much... It was good to see everyone around her."

Kathryn Bryce, the Scotland captain, says: "At the start of the day, would have taken chasing that 150 total. We probably let it slip towards the end. We've been really on it with our lines and lengths, but had a knock-on effect with the fielding when we slipped... [Openers] were fantastic up top, took on the game, set us up... We've played a lot of good cricket. Clever with the pace off, we struggled through the period to get a boundary. It means so much. The pain people are feeling right now shows how much they care... Will be special when we reflect back on it."

Player of the Match, Stefanie Taylor, speaks now: "I was due to bat at five, but because of the situation, we brought persons up to get the tempo going. That never really happened. So I came at No. 7. For me, it's just the areas where I can hit those boundaries. I said to the persons I was batting with, if you can get a boundary once every hour or two... it'll be good. Well I must commend the coach, we did a lot of work on my technique and how to access the gaps. Every time I get a break, I hit the nets. Accessing the off side a bit more would let me access the more leg side! We've taken it one step at a time..."

9.55pm Deandra Dottin broke down in the middle of her over, right as the chase neared its finish line and got so close! And then, all her teammates swarmed her to comfort her, and she bounced back with a great few deliveries to close out the over. Then, West Indies just bowled in the right areas to seal a seven-run win. They look like an imperfect, yet incredibly exciting, team in Group 2. Primed for that second semi-final spot out of here? Only time will tell. It was a tale of nearlys for Scotland, but they will learn a lot about how they might cross the finish line next time they run one of cricket's bigger teams so close. One of the best matches of this World Cup so far, and surely there's many more thrillers to come with West Indies, and Scotland, still at this tournament.

Shadow-Shell: "29/0 vs 14/5. Last two overs the clear difference between the two" - Indeed!

Joseph to Fontenla, 1 run, OUT, West Indies have secured two in two, and they'll breathe a biiiiig sigh of relief! They were made to sweat and how. A length ball here is swiped across the line, out to cow corner. Batter comes back for a second but the keeper whips off the bails. At the end of a riveting match of cricket, Scotland came close to a magnificent win, but just did not have enough depth in the end to cross the finish line

Joseph to Fontenla, 2 runs, Looney Tunes cricket here from both parties... Back of a length, she is on the backfoot and swipes it out to midwicket. Batters first stumble on the run, then they come back, a misfield results at the non-striker's end, another run comes up. And finally, a third run is thought about after another mini-fumble, but in the end, not to be

Joseph to Slater, OUT, It's all wrapping up here in Headingley... Floated up on a length outside off. Slater goes for a big swipe across the line but misses. Thick edge back to the keeper, and West Indies are almost through to another W

Joseph to Slater, 2 runs, And now Slater dances into the off side, and a beautiful swipe across the line, really! But flies out right to cow corner. And Scotland have no chance of making a second here. Except Joseph collects the ball far away from the stumps, and opts not to go for it

Joseph to Slater, 2 runs, Scotland get their two runs here! Full on the pads, batter dancing down leg once more. Flicked out to square leg and batters make it back for two

Joseph to Slater, 2 runs, Slooow through the air and moving into the stumps. Slater moves into the leg side and thumps it back to the bowler, who misfields this and the ball dribbles away to the vacant midwicket region, where she recovers it from
