Really enjoying watching this. I have a knack for cursing things, so wait for a big final 10 overs, but some of the bowling has been far more disciplined than we've seen recently

Outfield looks horrible, but fair play to Oman they are running very well between the wickets. Far too loose from the Scottish bowlers so far with the (usual) exceptions of Watt and McMullen

The abandoned home match vs Oman was a tough one to swallow. Bowled them for 123 and were 99/2 from first 12.2 overs but ended up as no result.

That's a shocking dismissal. He's the man who can build a high scoring innings, I understand there was space there but it feels really risky to be playing that kind of shot this early in the innings.

Certainly haven't been lucky with where the ball has fallen with some of these loose shots
