    Let me know the mood in Scotland, everyone. How many of you are staying awake? What's your secret for keeping those eyes open in the wee hours? Can your boys do it?

    BBC Sport's Richard Winton: Right, I've listened to Scotland's innings and the wean has fallen asleep. Do I stay awake for Bangladesh's shot?

    "Just spoken to Richard Illingworth on my flight from Napier to Auckland. I put it to him that, with England unlikely to make it, he could become the first man to play and and umpire in a World Cup final. He says he'll be playing that card when the appointments are decided. Nice bloke, good shoes."

    This is the 18th total over 300 in this World Cup, beating 17 in 2011 as the most in a World Cup (and we are only just over halfway through).

    "We have got a game here. It's not unassailable but Kyle Coetzer's beautifully judged innings - he hit straight, pulled well and kept going - has given Scotland a chance. Will this be another upset? They have given themselves a very good chance."

    Kyle Coetzer

    Scotland's Kyle Coetzer: "The guys at the other end were scoring and that took the pressure off me. I took a calculated risk by hitting six to go to 100. It's a huge honour and I'm very pleased with how it's gone. The odd one is holding up out there and if we put the ball into the right areas, there is enough there."

  10. Sco 318-7published at 01:49 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    Scotland walk off having hit 318-8, therefore setting Bangladesh 319 to win. Fantastic stuff by the boys in dark blue, who have posted the second highest total by an associate nation in the World Cup.

  11. WICKETpublished at 01:47 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    Majid Haq walks out to bat without a helmet or cap. The left-hander looks like he's out for a Sunday afternoon hit, not taking part in a World Cup match. He means business though and smears Shakib into the leg side only to pick out Sarkar who takes a fine catch diving forward at mid-wicket.

  12. WICKETpublished at 01:43 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    Matthew Cross goes in pursuit of quick runs at the tail-end of the innings but succeeds only in cracking the ball to point. A decent 14-ball cameo nonetheless.

    "That was a clever slower ball from Taskin. Berrington was trying to hit it into the ocean but just hit it straight up into the air."

    One delivery after being hit on the hand at the non-striker's end, Richie Berrington is out. He misjudges a slower ball from Taskin and sends a catch high into the air behind the stumps and wicketkeeper Mushfiqur takes a good catch.

    "Scotland would miss Berrington if he can't bowl because he operates as a fifth/sixth bowler. It was hit incredibly hard - that is cricket's equivalent of friendly fire. He doesn't want to go off."

  16. Ouch - Sco 308-5 (run-rate 6.37)published at 01:40 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    Richie Berrington is in a world of pain as he gets in the way of Matthew Cross's straight drive and his hand cops full punishment. The physio is on... he could have broken something there. The bat was knocked from his hands. It could have been worse for Scotland if it was the other way round, with Cross due to take the wicketkeeping gloves. It probably costs his side four runs too. Berrington gets some strapping on it and will continue.

  17. Sco 304-5 (Berrington 26, Cross 13)published at 01:33 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    It's raining sixes now - Scotland motor past 300 when Matthew Cross sweeps Shakib for a maximum over square leg. Fetch that.

  18. Sco 296-5 (run-rate: 6.29)published at 01:31 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    Richie Berrington hits a long ball. This time he gives himself space and smears Nasir over extra cover for another maximum... 300 is a formality now. Another four through the off side brings cheers from the smattering of Scottish supporters. Scotland can do no wrong.

    Mark Kelly: , externalScotland well on their way to a 300+ total. Being all neighbourly and giving England a chance to qualify for the quarters.

  20. Sco 283-5 (Berrington 13, Cross 5)published at 01:27 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2015

    I wondered how long the 'Coetzer for England' tweets would take to come in, Matthew. Remember Gavin Hamilton?! One Test, two ducks, no wickets. I do know what you're saying though. It was a magnificent knock.

    Richie Berrington takes up the baton from Coetzer as he clears his front leg and creams leg-spinner Sabbir over cow corner for six. That's the seventh sixth of the innings. Thirteen from the over.
