Greaves ran back to his marker, turned back and then he bowled quickly. He clearly wasn't set. You need to take time as a bowler.

Oh, that's a filthy full toss from Chris Greaves, and JJ Smit has given it the treatment.
Six!

At this stage, Scotland were 84-5.
It's very numerically pleasing.
Nam 85-4published at 15 overs
Need 25 from 30 balls
This is quite a pricey over, in the scheme of things, as Safyaan Sharif errs down the leg side.
That's better, though, a bit of extra zip, and it sneaks under JJ Smit's bat as he shapes to pull.

BBC Test Match SpecialA brilliant stop from Brad Wheal. Fielding like that can make all the difference.

A great dive from Brad Wheal stops David Wiese pulling a four.

Target 110
Four!
A bit of width on offer and JJ Smit frees his arm, carving the ball through backward point for a welcome boundary.

It's tight.

Safyaan Sharif, who took the first wicket for Scotland, is back.

So close to another wicket for Mark Watt, as David Wiese shapes to cut and knocks the ball just, just past the stumps.

Close!
An outside edge flies off JJ Smit's bat and just trickles past the man at slip.

The third umpire just checked that for reasons that are unfathomable to me.
JJ Smit, the new batter, works a single first up.

Former Scotland bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialCross and Watt have a good relationship. I wouldn't put it past them to have spoken about that leg-side stumping as a plan.

WICKETpublished at 12.3 overs
Williams st Cross b Watt 23 (Nam 67-4)
Now then!
Tailing down the leg side from Mark Watt and Craig Williams comes charging out of his crease, misses, and is stumped almost sarcastically slowly by keeper Matthew Cross.
