Romil: "A defeat here and Windies won't be able to go to India, right?" Yep. The bowlers have their work cut out. Will they step up or will Scotland put up another clinical performance. Live action will start around 12:43pm local time. Shashwat will be back to call it. Stay tuned.

Sarvar Hussain: "WI should have tried to play all 50 over there "

Ricky : "182 could be defended only the the Sri Lankan bowling attack in the tournament. "

Brandon McMullen, 3 for 32 in nine straight overs: Love bowling up top, new ball does a bit for me. Great partnership with Chris Sole. I try and keep it tight and use the swing it, Sole does the same thing but he has extra pace and is much more aggressive. Really clinical performance. It brings a lot of confidence going into the batting.

12:13pm: WI haven't defended a total less than 200 in the last five years, says Natalie Germanos on air. Carlos Brathwaite notes it's a flat pitch which will make it tough. What it emphasises is the excellence of Scotland's bowling and the looseness in West Indies' batting in the first and last powerplays. They were put in to bat and tried to be aggressive. Despite losing wickets and being beaten often, they persisted with regular attempts at picking up boundaries. It brought McMullen into the game, he used the swing to find edges. Sole was brilliant too. West Indies lost five wickets under 13 overs. Pooran, Holder and Shepherd dragged them to 181 but their dismissals, especially of the first two, will only pile on the frustration. For Scotland, everyone bowled tight. Watt epitomised it, as did Greaves. Sharif troubled batters and collectively, they leave Scotland in a good position to knock the two-time champions out of contention to make the World Cup.
