- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.5 Stunning catch! Play that on loop. Katherine Fraser, you beauty! How well has she judged it. Length ball on middle, Joseph powers it across the line. The ball seemed destined to fly over the ropes but nope! Fraser's there. She leaps high at deep midwicket while going a little backwards, catches it with both hands and falls, just inside the boundary cushion. One of the catches of this T20 World Cup 24/17.5 Knocked her over! Fraser now gets into the act with the ball as well. She bowls a quicker one on a length on middle, after anticipating Matthews to back away to access the off side. The West Indies skipper does that but fails to make contact with the ball, that goes and strikes the middle stump. A struggle really for her, Scotland chuffed 44/213.1 Have West Indies sold another wicket down the river here? On a length at the stumps and keeps looow at 80.2 clicks... Flicked out to a vacant midwicket. Fielder runs in and plucks up the ball, throws it to the striker's end. And guess what, Fraser has pulled off another vital contribution here... Campbelle falls short of her crease, no heroics tonight 80/412.6 This was a long time coming, really. Bryce has been choking options with these good length deliveries, and now she lobs up another one of these outside off. Dottin feels forced to run down the pitch, once more, and misses this all ends up. The Bryce sisters combine to send her back with a stumping, in her 150th T20I 79/317.4 Claxton can't get this one over the ropes... Was on a length outside off, she swings through the line as she runs down the pitch. Just can't get enough elevation on this as the ball is lobbed straight to cow corner, on the longer side of the boundary. She walks back after a rather handy 9-ball 16 122/614.3 Impeccable spin bowling from Gordon clinches another wicket. West Indies in freefall here, really. On a length, floating in right as she goes for a flick. Pings her on the pads. Batter goes for a flick across the line, and then decides to take the DRS. Maybe umpire's call on impact, right outside off? The graphics take a while to come back, as everyone waits in anticipation. Oh, in fact, it's all three reds. Wonderful bowling, not a great review, WI have lost half their side now 85/5Extras5 (lb 2, w 3)TOTAL153/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.65)Fall of wickets: 1-24 (Qiana Joseph, 4.5 ov), 2-44 (Hayley Matthews, 7.5 ov), 3-79 (Deandra Dottin, 12.6 ov), 4-80 (Shemaine Campbelle, 13.1 ov), 5-85 (Chinelle Henry, 14.3 ov), 6-122 (Jahzara Claxton, 17.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR18.1 Carter has finally perished! A length ball on the stumps, Carter knows she has to go for it. She swipes through the line but is too early on the shot. Ball flies off the top edge and goes a long way up. When it lands, it's right in Alleyne's hands. Take nothing away from a knock that's taken Scotland so close here... 132/65.1 Bowled her! Matthews rallies the West Indies and she has broken through. Quicker and flatter on a length on middle and leg. Fraser gets down to sweepn but does not account for the flatter tracjectory. Misses it completely and sees the woodwork shattered. An enterprising opening stand for Scotland ends 51/15.3 Catch is the call, catch it is! West Indies clawing back now. Another tossed up ball that dips on the batter. Bryce cannot resist the temptation to go over the in-field. Ends up miscuing it to mid-off where Henry makes no mistake 51/26.3 Catching practice for Dottin! Scotland falling away now. Nicely flighted outside off, takes pace off and bowls it full. Bryce gets forward and looks to slice it over backward point but finds Dottin to perfection. A playful jig from Fletcher to celebrate a key wicket 57/37.1 Huge appeal from Matthews and she gets the nod! McColl on her way back after Carter advises her against the review. Flighted ball, full around off. She goes for the reverse sweep but doesn't connect. The ball hits her on the back leg and that is enough for the umpire to raise the finger. This is falling apart too soon for Scotland 58/410.4 Chatterji has lobbed a dolly out to mid-off! Henry takes an easy catch, and then hunches immediately. She might be cramping up. But no matter. A length delivery outside off just wasn't flighted enough for Chatterji to get under this one 74/518.5 Lister has tried to get too innovative here, hasn't landed the punch the way she wanted too! WI close to the knockout blow with this wicket. Back of a length and moving into the stumps. Lister is down on one knee and she looks to scoop this, but misses the line of the delivery completely as it thuds right into the stumps instead 137/719.4 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 143/918.6 And now back-to-back wickets, ecstasy for West Indies here! On a length outside off, angles back in. Gordon has shuffled deep into the leg side looking for a late cut, or therabouts. No real chance of landing bat on ball, which thuds into her stumps instead. Scotland have fought hard in this chase, in this match, but it's all falling apart here 137/819.6 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 146/10Extras11 (b 1, nb 3, w 7)TOTAL146 all out (20 Overs, RR: 7.3)Fall of wickets: 1-51 (Katherine Fraser, 5.1 ov), 2-51 (Kathryn Bryce, 5.3 ov), 3-57 (Sarah Bryce, 6.3 ov), 4-58 (Megan McColl, 7.1 ov), 5-74 (Priyanaz Chatterji, 10.4 ov), 6-132 (Darcey Carter, 18.1 ov), 7-137 (Ailsa Lister, 18.5 ov), 8-137 (Kirstie Gordon, 18.6 ov), 9-143 (Rachel Slater, 19.4 ov), 10-146 (Gabriella Fontenla, 19.6 ov)
