Sharif swings and misses, but they try to run a bye.

I fancy that Sharif has been run out by miles, but we're double checking.

Excellent running from Safyaan Sharif, who hurries back for two and keeps Tomas Mackintosh on strike.

He can't repeat the feat next ball though, and it will be Sharif to face the final ball of the innings...

Mackintosh finds the gap!

Hammered through midwicket for four, and he picks up four more from the next delivery, carving Ryan Klein through backward point.

Great batting.

A little inside edge, and Tomas Mackintosh scampers through for a single.

He's the set batter - what can he drag his side up to...

Sharif helps the final ball of Bas de Leede's spell down to long-leg, and will keep the strike for the final over.

Can Scotland get to 275?

Safyaan Sharif digs out a yorker, and there will be no hat-trick.

Possibly the strangest dismissal of the qualifiers, but the Netherlands won't care.

It's a slower-ball bouncer, which Mark Watt dangles a vertical bat at above his head, and only knocks the simplest catch back to the bowler.

Bas de Leede has five-fer, and is on a hat-trick...

All the fielders on the off-side are in the 30-yard circle, so when Tomas Mackintosh is offered some width by Logan van Beek, he throws his hands at it, and picks up four over mid-off.

Chris Greaves paddles over the wicket-keeper's head from the final ball of the over and picks up two more - nine from the over.

Mackintosh has 26 from 22 balls; Greaves has 18 from 14.

Excellent bowling from Bas de Leede, varying his pace massively, and the Scottish pair can't find a way to get him away.

Just the six runs from that over - 18 balls left...

Scotland 250-6 v Netherlands

A single down to long-on from Tomas Mackintosh brings up the 250 for Scotland.

Logan van Beek fires one in at Chris Greaves' leg-stump, and must have thought he was in business, but Greaves gets down and paddles down to fine-leg for four.

10 off the over - good from a Scotland perspective.

Bas de Leede is bowling some clever stuff, taking all the pace off, and forcing the Scotland batters to force things slightly.

Scotland took 55 runs from the final five overs in their game against Zimbabwe - they'd snap your hand off for that here...

Tomas Mackintosh is seeing it big, finding the middle of the bat with regularity. Unfortunately in that over, some excellent work in the outfield prevents any boundaries.

Just the five singles.

Seven runs from the over.

You'd imagine the foot will go hard to the floor now.

Strap in...

Four more to Mackintosh - a picture-perfect reverse-sweep over short third.

A touch of the gloves, and a nod of approval from his skipper.

That's not a bad shot either, this time from the blade of Tomas Mackintosh!

Full from Ryan Klein, and the 20-year-old whips it through mid-on for four more.

Lovely.

Richie Berrington, that is some shot.

Clayton Floyd gets a nice bit of drift, angling into the Scotland captain's pads, but Berrington backs away and somehow hits it over extra cover for four.

Seven runs off the over.

Scotland have 10 overs of the innings remaining in Bulawayo.

What can they get up to?
