Scotland Posts Record T20 World Cup Score!

Scotland established a new tournament record by posting the first 200-plus total of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, reaching 207 runs for the loss of four wickets against Italy. This significant achievement at Eden Gardens also marks the first time an associate nation has scored over 200 runs in a World Cup.

The foundation for this record total was laid by George Munsey, who delivered a stellar performance with 84 runs off 54 balls, including 13 fours and 2 sixes. He formed a formidable 126-run opening partnership with Michael Jones, who contributed 37 runs.

Despite losing the openers, Scotland maintained their aggressive scoring pace through Brandon McMullen and contributions from captain Richie Berrington. Michael Leask's blistering 22 not out off just 7 balls in the final over sealed the imposing total. Italy's bowlers struggled to contain Scotland's powerful batting display throughout the innings.
