Am I right that the fewer wickets lost the higher the DLS total when chasing?

Indeed. Not sure why England aren't pumping through the overs to get to the 5 threshold. Weather looks okay though.

No rain forecast in Grenada for Australia v Scotland, or so I just saw.

Hopefully same in St Lucia - it’s not too far I guess
Watching Australia vs Scotland after 16 overs Australia have put down 6 yes six chances so far, the commentator said some not too easy but they would expect to take 90% of those. They dropped 3 in 3 deliveries at one point :eek: .

Fwiw I think Scotland have been very good in the tournament.

Fingers would be pointed if it was different teams. Absolutely woeful in the field and not looking good with the bat. Fair play to Scotland but Australia look as much of a rabble as we did against them.

A Scottish bowler just bowled an over that would get laughs in the village green. It went for 4 runs while Oz needed 11 an over. Absolutely woeful stuff. I am sure they will laugh about it.

This is going to be unbelievably close, Travis Head out just as Australia started to accelerate towards the win. 36 needed off the last 4 overs, 24-1 off that last over.

Not sure what to make of that. Australia just on auto pilot and Scotland not taking their chances. I don't think Australia were playing to lose at all because they know that, given recent history, that doesn't look good on their CV. But they were extremely casual at times

If that was constructed to look tense, well done. I don’t quite know what to make of that. At times Australia looked pitiful, yet equally capable of overcoming the target. Scotland set a reasonably high target, yet failed to contain the batting. Obviously, great that England benefited.
