    That is a super start from Scotland - not just because of the runs scored, but because of the intent shown.

    Target 191

    George Munsey tries to go reverse sweeping again but this time it goes rolling towards Rashid Khan in the circle.

    Munsey gives himself some room and Nabi, seeing what's about to happen, fizzes an arm ball through a little quicker to stop him snaffling a run.

    Shot!

    A reverse sweep from George Munsey again but this time he gets more under the ball, which goes sailing over the short boundary for a big 'un.

    Hello!

    The first runs of the chase come in lovely fashion, with George Munsey reverse sweeping his way to a boundary.

    Scotland have got a bit of the wool over Afghanistan. This Scotland team will not die wondering. They have not come this far to back out now. It just needs one guy to have his day.

    You have to have that belief. That's the first thing you need. Then you need clarity of plans, then the ability to execute.

    Scotland think they can chase this.

    Scotland spinner Mark Watt, who took 1-23 off four overs: "We knew it was going to be a short boundary one side, so we tried to do our best to protect. With the left-hand, right-hand combination, it was hard.

    "We've got a lot of power throughout our whole batting line-up and good players of spin, so hopefully we can hit more sixes than they did."

    Thank you, Matthew.

    That was fun, wasn't it? The five biggest sixes of the tournament so far all came in that innings.

    Well that got a little ugly for Scotland. Afghanistan's hitting was brutal.

    Amy Lofthouse will take you through Scotland's chase.

    Scotland didn't get enough dot balls in there. They look a little bit despondent.

    He's out, but the damage was already done - there were 14 runs off the last over.

    Zadran c Wheal b Sharif 59 (Afg 190-4)

    A late consolation for Scotland. Finally they manage to stop Najibullah Zadran's charge but it has taken until the final ball of the innings.

    Afghanistan still bound from the middle. They have set Scotland 191 to win.
