Re: Senior NAT Team
Its not easy being green.
Tour Match # 5
Home: Scotland
Away: UAE
Ground: RabC Nesbitt Field
League: Nat One Day 3
Date 20 Aug 21 09:00
Crowd: 28,666
Weather: Cloudy
Pitch Hard
Scotland won the toss and elected to bat.
Was this a matter of win the toss, win the game? Who knows we may have also made almost 300 if we had batted first. But we also could have made 42. We just don’t know.
Result:
Scotland won by 100 runs.
Ratings
Scotland vs UAE
Batting - Top Order: 14,101 vs 13,686
Batting - Middle Order: 11,886 vs 10,239
Batting - Tail: 4,878 vs 5,418
Bowling - Seam: 15,117 (40) vs13,983 (40)
Bowling - Spin: 15,143 (10) vs 13,822 (10)
Fielding/Keeping: 16,735 vs 16,490
Overall: 244,401 vs 231,183
The Match in a Tweet: The 28,666 crowd give a standing ovation at the end of the game as UAE National Manager EB leaves the ground for the last time as national manager.
Man of the Match: Alexander Hastie (Sco)
142 from the Scottish opener absolutely the difference in this match. Our best score was 41. They won by 100. You do the maths.
Our best:
Imtiyaz Alim - 4/42 off his 10 overs including a maiden. Couldn’t have asked more of Alim in a tough day to be a UAE bowler.
Nawfal Shadi - 2/54 off his 10 overs including a maiden. The skipper also unbeaten on 14 with the bat is a helpless chase.
Around the Grounds:
Bangladesh beat USA by 4 wickets.
Ireland beat Pakistan by 61 runs.
That means Bangladesh and Scotland promote. We finish 4th. Equal with USA and Ireland with 2 wins. Pakistan bottom with just the one win.
Would just like to say a big thank you to EB for his time as national manager, a thankless job but thank you for all your effort and energy.

Re: Senior NAT Team
Solid review Moose.
Disappointing chase from the lads. Really should have done better with that start.
We posted the lowest ratings on tour, and I would assume the youngest side. Hopefully only up from here!
