SCO VS AUS - 2nd T20I, Australia tour of Scotland, 2024

That is all we have from this one. Will Australia cleansweep 3-0, or can Scotland record their first-ever win against Australia? All answers to be unraveled tomorrow. Do remember to join us for one last time this series. Cheers!!

Mitch Marsh | Australian skipper: It was a really good game of cricket. The way Inglis and Green bailed us out of trouble and the way Inglis played was unbelievable. I think we got a youngish group here and we also spoke about flexibility in the whole tour. There maybe a couple of changes, not too sure and maybe I'll have to ask the coach. The focus is on winning the series 3-0 and we are gonna talk about that.

Richie Berrington | Scotland skipper There were improvements today, we were much better with the ball in hand, got a couple of early wickets, but credit to Josh Inglis he played a brilliant knock and took the bowlers on and got a lot of boundaries through the middle overs which really made the difference and they were probably 20-30 above par. The character the guys showed was great, I thought we came back really well from the other day. Sole was really impressive with the ball. We gonna keep getting better and hopefully we will come back tomorrow and finish off well.

Josh Inglis | Player of the Match: (Fastest Australian T20I centurion) Pretty special to be honest. I didn't know about it. To hold that record now, it's really nice. Doesn't happen too often, there was a bit happening early doors, we lost a couple of wickets. Me and Greeny spoke about building a partnership. Once the new ball wore off, it got easier in the middle period. Was just looking to play good cricket shots and show some good intent. Really good opportunity for me to get some game time in and try to cement my place in the squad. Really tough, a lot of good players in the squad.

17:40 local, 16:40 GMT, 22:10 IST: Only two double-digit scores, both of which have come from the top 3. To rub more salt into the wounds, just one batter got past 20. You don't win too many games chasing 197 with such sorry scorecard in any format of the game. McMullen put up a show with an array of clean hits down the ground, but he needed someone to support him at the other end. Unfortunately for the hosts, they kept crumbling at regular intervals and never really stole the grip from the mighty Aussies. On a positive note, this has been an improved show from Scotland. They were thrashed mercilessly in the first game after posting 154, but today their bowling looked in a decent shape with the arrival of Bradley Currie. With the bat, they needed someone to dig deep and allow McMullen to play his natural game. Not to be. Stick around for the post-match reactions...

Stoinis to Greaves, out Caught by Hardie!! Australia seal the game by 70 runs and win the series with a game to go.
