Scotland have something to defend in the field.
Greaves run out (Wiese) 25 (109-8)
A wicket to end the innings as Greaves is run out!
Wiese bowls full. It's nudged back to the bowler. Scotland attempt the single and the bowler calmly walks back to his stumps and whips off the bails.
So then, Namibia will need 110 to beat Scotland.

Former Scotland bowler on BBC Test Match Special
Anything north of 100 would have been positive for Scotland from where they were.
Scotland searching for the boundaries but the experienced David Wiese is wise to it, offering no freebies to the batters.
Another slower ball nearly deceives a Scotland batter as Greaves nearly holes out to long-on, the ball falling just short of the fielder.
The single does bring up Scotland's hundred. At 2-3, that seemed a long way away.
Frylinck finishes with figures of 2-10 from his four overs. Brilliant.

Frylinck has been really good today. He runs in quicker than he lets it go and that's what deceives the batter sometimes. It's a conventional leg-stump half-volley and Watt hit it straight to him.
Simon Mann

That is catching practice.
Watt c Erasmus b Frylinck 3 (Sco 99-7)
It's a slower ball from Jan Frylinck and Mark Watt chips it straight down Namibia captain Gerhard Erasmus' throat at long-on.
Frylinck has his second wicket of the game.

That was a good over from Wiese.
Mark Watt jigs around his crease, ending up outside off. Wiese follows him and the batter plays an innovative scoop shot over short fine leg.
Wiese comes back well with slower balls and off cutters. Just three from the over.
Leask hit four fours and these two sixes in his knock...
With Leask gone, Scotland's hopes of reaching a defendable target rely on Chris Greaves. The batter drills Smit through mid-off for two.
Mark Watt is also off the mark with a single.
Well batted, Michael Leask.
Simon Mann

That was quite an ambitious shot.
Leask b Smit 44 (Sco 93-6)
Ah! And they're now 93-6.
Michael Leask had played such a competent innings but it comes to an end.
The batter moves across his crease and looks to paddle it down to fin leg. All three stumps on show as the ball clatters into middle stump.
And 57-5 when Matthew Cross was bowled...
Scotland were 18-4 when opener Craig Wallace departed....
Darted in by Ya France and Leask is down on and knee to slap it over short fine leg for four.
Scotland take eight from the over and slowly clawing themselves back into the game.
Namibia use their seventh bowler of the innings as off-spinner Pikky Ya France turns his arm.
There's a halfhearted appeal as Leask is struck on the pads, well outside the line.
Ruben Trumpelmann finishes his spell with figures of 3-17 off four overs. A day he'll never forget.
