5:45 PM The Dutch bowlers led by van Meekeren and van der Merwe did enough, each took three wickets at less than four runs an over and the win puts them top of the table. The next match is on Friday, again with a 11 o'clock (1000 BST) start. I will be back to bring you commentary on that. Until then it's good evening and thanks for following

5:44 PM So 19 runs the final margin. Closer than it looked like Scotland were going to get but while Munsey was compiling his century it looked like they were on their way to victory.
