Matthew Cross is starting to hit his stride and the first of Naseer's new over is sent for two, glanced down to fine leg.

He adds another single, and keeps the scoreboard ticking over while playing himself - and Berrington - in for a bit more stability.

The skipper is on strike, and adds a single with the last ball of the over.

This was an opportunity for the UAE to really turn the heat up, but Scotland have handled the pressure of the last few overs.

Deary me. Richie Berrington wanted a quick single as Matthew Cross defended the ball straight down to his feet. He was sent scuttling back and made it home safely in the end.

Ah, the next ball is just the tonic. A hint of width and he cuts between cover and backward point all the way to the boundary - his first of the day.

The next is a quick single, and sees Cross make it to the double digits.

Matthew Cross is quick to add another single as Naseer comes back on to bowl.

Richie Berrington has already faced more balls than the opener, who isn't keen to stay on strike. The skipper is still yet to get off the mark... until he paws one short to mid-on and takes a quick one.

Cross back on... and another quick single. That's him up to five.

A little misfield allows Matthew Cross to add another quick single.

Richie Berrington faces Siddique, and the last one glides inches past his shoulder. A snorter.

There's no doubt about who is in charge in these early stages.

It's back to earth with a bang for the Scots, and they might really feel the loss of George Munsey in their batting order just now.

Richie Berrington did well, defending away nicely from Ali Naseer who practically had steam coming out of his nose.

McMullen nearls falls for a golden duck!

Siddique barrels down the wicket and fires one that McMullen inside edges - but it evades the keeper and travels to the boundary.

At least he's off the mark... I think you'd call it streaky.

Matthew Cross gets off the mark, prodding one to deep fine leg for a single. Worth mentioning the the UAE are using their Powerplay, with just the one slip at the moment.

Ali Naseer is the bowler. The fifth delivery is well pitched and tempts Cross, but there's no edge on the way through.

McBride faces the final delivery, and chases a quick single.

The ball isn't swinging too much early doors, in a slightly overcast Zimbabwe.

Matthew Cross and Chris McBride make their way out, and the latter will face the first ball against Junaid Siddique...

And he survives it. And the second, too. That's better than Paul Stirling did on Wednesday...

McBride plays the third away, it's misfielded and it goes all the way to the boundary.

Simply, it was a marvellous victory for Scotland against Ireland on Wednesday. Two runs needed off the last ball, and Michael Leask inside edged it to the boundary.

Cue absolute scenes in the Scotland camp. Leask’s 91 not out was lauded, as was Brandon McMullen’s five wickets for 34 runs.

Ireland had looked set for victory after a tidy 286-8, with Scotland struggling on 122-6 at one point.

But Leask’s heroics meant Scotland began Group B with a win. Mark Watt also scored 47, while Chris McBride’s 56 didn’t hurt.

The leading three advance to the Super Six stage of the tournament, from which the top two progress to the World Cup in India later this year.

Currently, that doesn’t look likely to be the UAE. They’ve started the competition with two defeats to Sri Lanka and Oman.

Scotland: Matthew Cross, Chris McBride, Brandon McMullen, Richie Berrington (c), Tomas Mackintosh (wk), Michael Leask, Chris Greaves, Jack Jarvis, Mark Watt, Chris Sole, Safyaan Sharif.

So, that's one change for the Scots from the win over Ireland. Jack Jarvis comes in for George Munsey, who misses out with illness. As for the opposition...

UAE: Muhammad Waseem (c), Rohan Mustafa, Vriitya Aravind (wk), Aryansh Sharma, Asif Khan, Basil Hameed, Ali Naseer, Aayan Afzal Khan, Karthik Meiyappan, Zahoor Khan, Junaid Siddique.

Good morning! Welcome back to Bulawayo as Scotland look to build on their opening group victory over Ireland. More on that shortly.

UAE have won the toss and decided to have a bowl.

We'll bring you the teams very shortly.
