Commentary

That's all we have from day one of the T20 World Cup 2021. What a return to the tournament after a hiatus of 5 years. We'll shift our attention to Group A tomorrow, with another double-header coming your way. That's it for now. This is Pratyush Rohra, signing off on behalf of my co-commentator, Soorya Sesha. See you tomorrow, folks. Goodnight!

Well. Group B was supposed to be the easier of the two groups and Bangladesh were favorites and almost certain to go through to the Super 12's. Not so much now, eh? This is exactly why we love the game of cricket, don't we? What a week for Scotland sport. A late winner at Hampden Park in the World Cup qualifiers earlier in the week, and now, a massive result to get their T20 World Cup campaign underway. They'll want to continue to build on this momentum and look to make it to the Super 12s. As for Bangladesh, there might be the case of going back to the drawing board. They'll need to bounce back quickly from this upset.

Kyle Coetzer: First of all, to get into that position. Credit to the Bangladesh bowlers. They blew us away with their high-class skills. Having that that, you can't count any team out in T20 cricket. We believe in our team and we've got the players who can clear the ropes and Greaves and Watt showed that. It was tricky. There was plenty of dew there but I felt we tackled it really well. It shows that we can win a game from anywhere. We fought our way back into the game. It's a huge confidence builder and we believe that we can keep pushing and challenging teams. We didn't play our best cricket but it gives us a lot of confidence winning against a high-quality side. We will enjoy our time tonight and sing our anthem and debrief about the game tomorrow. Huge togetherness amongst our squad. When we are under pressure, we back each other. That's a huge plus. I'm really proud of the guys and that's an outstanding effort from them today.

Mahmudullah: I think 140 was quite gettable. We probably missed one big over in the middle. Our bowlers did a great job but the batting unit wasn't good enough tonight. We didn't let them off the hook. We were just one wicket away from restricting them to a lower total. Credit goes to their players for that partnership and the finish they had towards the end. Yeah, when you cant chase 140, there will be something to look at. We will regroup and try not to repeat the mistakes. We will see about it tomorrow. We will have a look at the positive things as well but its the mistakes we have to avoid. It was a fantastic wicket and a fantastic crowd. We need to pull our socks off to play some good cricket.

Chris Greaves (Player of the Match): To be honest, I don't know (what was running through my mind at 53/6). We were in a tough situation so it was just about rebuilding the innings at that stage and go further. It was unbelievable that I was that person to do it. We had a score on the board and something to bowl at. The guys in our side are incredible so once we had that score on the board, with our bowling attack, we were confident. I think it was my day today. Anyone in our squad can contribute on a given day. Incredible feeling (to play for Scotland) - I'm really enjoying it and taking it one day at a time.

Scotland beat Bangladesh by 6 runs.

From 55-6 when they were asked to bat first, to winning the game by 6 runs. That's one hell of a turnaround in a T20 game. That's daylight robbery from Scotland to deny Bangladesh what looked like a certain victory at one stage. For the chatter around associate nations belonging at the top level. That should settle it, no? The Scottish team are chuffed to bits as Chris Greaves receives his player of the match award.

It was his knock 45 from 28 that got Scotland to a respectable total and gave their bowlers something to defend. Just when you think he had provided some heroics, he proved he's got much more up his sleeve. He bagged a couple of wickets as well, along with the other Scottish bowlers, who were clinical tonight. Bangladesh have themselves to blame for this loss. The openers didn't get them underway, and the rebuilding from Rahim and Shakib was at a turtle pace, which put the equation beyond Bangladesh's reach towards the end. Not to forget the complacency that took over when they had Scotland tottering.

Mahmudullah and Afif Hossain gave their side a fighting chance until the end but the equation proved too much for them towards the end. The fact that there was plenty of due on offer, makes this Scottish effort even more impressive. A day to remember for the Scottish Saltires, and their very own, Christopher Greaves! Stay tuned for the presentations.

Well, well, well. We've got a major upset on day one! Scotland have done, what seemed like the unthinkable when they were batting. It's not just the victory that will please them tonight, it's the manner of that victory that will give them tones of confidence going forward in the tournament.

19.6 Safyaan Sharif to Mahedi Hasan, JUST A SINGLE! SCOTLAND HAVE DONE IT! Unbelievable scenes at the Oman Cricket Academy! Short of a length delivery at the stumps, Mahedi can only hang back for a pull towards deep mid-wicket for a solitary run to draw the curtains on an absolute humdinger of a contest on the opening day of the tournament! This is an upset for the ages folks - Scotland beat Bangladesh by 6 runs!

It's been a solid over so far. He's done his job, almost. He's wiping the ball with the ball. Some dew perhaps. Just keep it simple now, Safyaan Sharif. Do not overstep that crease!

19.5 Safyaan Sharif to Mahedi Hasan, FOUR! INTO THE FENCE! It won't be enough unless there's an extra now! Shapes a low full toss away from the batter outside off, Mahedi hangs back in his crease to smear it on the up past extra cover to send the ball racing to the fence.

12 from 2 now..

No ball? Hold your horses, Scottish folks! That could be a huge moment in the game! Mahedi's asking the question for the no ball. Umpire Richard Kettleborough asks him to get on with it. That was okay.

19.4 Safyaan Sharif to Mahedi Hasan, SIX! THERE'S ONE! Wretched full toss on the leg-stump, Mahedi backs away and clubs this powerfully over mid-wicket as the ball soars into the stands. Mahedi is asking for the no ball and they are checking it upstairs. Seems to be just okay though!

19.3 Safyaan Sharif to Mohammad Saifuddin, SUPERLATIVE BOWLING! Sees the bowler back away to the leg-side and Sharif fires a yorker right into the batter's boots as Saifuddin can only squeeze it out to the bowler's left. The ball is stopped with a dive from Sharif as the batters run a single. THREE SIXES NEEDED NOW!

19 needed off 4 balls. Bangladesh keeping this contest alive, for now.

19.2 Safyaan Sharif to Mohammad Saifuddin, FOUR! MUCH NEEDED BOUNDARY! Too full on the off-stump line, Saifuddin goes deep in his crease for a powerful swing down the ground and over mid-off as the ball races to the fence. A big one is needed now though!

He's copped a blow on his helmet there. Mandatory concussion checks to take place. For Scotland, it's crucial that it's just a single.

19.1 Safyaan Sharif to Mahedi Hasan, OH DEAR! Goes for the yorker at the stumps as it comes out as a low full toss, Mahedi, in an attempt to reverse-lap it over third man, ends up playing it onto his helmet before running a single as the ball ricochets towards backward point. Out comes the physio for the mandatory concussion test!

Safyaan Sharif [2.0-0-9-0] is back into the attack
