    WICKET

    Gerhard Erasmus brings himself into the attack and makes the breakthrough.

    Bowling round the wicket, it slides across Michael Jones who nicks it through to Zane Green.

  2. Sco 47-1

    Bernard Scholtz comes on to bowl some left-arm offies, and Scotland take just three singles from his first over.

  3. Sco 43-1

    At the end of the powerplay, McMullen has three, while Jones has 24.

    As long as Jones stays there, he'll get used to the pace of the surface. If you can ride your luck, you can score.

    Namibia will be disappointed, they've given Scotland a bit of momentum at the end of the powerplay.

  5. 6 runs

    Sco 43-1

    And now a thick inside edge goes away for four - streaky.

    This is far more convincing from Jones though, as he runs down the pitch and belts Lungameni over extra cover for the first six of the chase.

    Shot of the day.

  6. Sco 33-1

    A leading edge from Brandon McMullen skews away past point, and the Scottish pair scamper through for three.

  7. Sco 29-1

    Shot!

    Michael Jones clears his front leg and smashes Lungameni back down the ground for four.

    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    You can become obsessed with hitting boundaries during the powerplay, but sometimes you just have to take your medicine and run twos.

  9. Sco 25-1

    Scotland are really struggling to get David Wiese away here.

    The pitch looks a bit two paced - it's not easy.

  10. Sco 24-1

    Brandon McMullen is in at three for Scotland, and he safely negotiates the final ball of Lungameni's over.

  11. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    You could sense the frustration of Munsey, he was trying to manufacture space at the crease to get it into the on side but Namibia went wider and wider.

    He chopped across and didn't time it.

    WICKET

    Munsey c Wiese b Lungameni 7 (Sco 23-1)

    Munsey never got going today and he mistimes one straight to David Wiese at mid-off.

    An early blow for Scotland.

  13. Sco 19-0

    Tangeni Lungameni is into the attack for Namibia, and is met with a huge swing and a miss by George Munsey.

    That might have gone in the sea had he connected.

  14. Sco 19-0

    Michael Jones skips down and deposits Trumpelmann over mid-off for a one-bounce four.

    A lovely shot from the Durham man.

  15. Geoff Lemon
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    Trumpelmann is giving Scotland all of their runs just about. Six off the bat, seven extras from Trumpelmann.

  16. Geoff Lemon
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    This is becoming a real problem now. Namibia's strike-bowler is nullifying himself.

    He's having a chat with Wiese who is coming across for some moral support.

  17. Sco 14-0

    Ruben Trumpelmann is firing down some really poor deliveries down the leg side.

  18. Sco 10-0

    A single finishes the over.

  19. Sco 9-0

    David Wiese has conceded just one from his first five deliveries.

    A good start from Namibia's wily old fox.

  20. Yeah, well I ordered a pizza in Matthew, so who's really winning?

    It's the one in Barbados, isn't it...
