SCO vs ITA Live: 😍 Insane hitting

What a finish for Scotland. Michael Leask came, he faced 5 balls and he conquered! Smacking two fours and as many sixes to delight the crowd at Eden Gardens. 

Scotland finish at 207/4, the highest team score at the T20 World Cup 2026. Thomas Draca, who had some hype coming into this game, has had a terrible match as he bowled just 2 overs but leaked 37 runs at 18.50 economy. 

SCO vs ITA Live: Watch Out!

09/02/2026 12:29

Brendon McMullen is batting on 41* off 18!

SCO vs ITA Live: 3 overs remaining

09/02/2026 12:17

Scotland have three more overs with them as they eye the first 200+ total of this T20 World Cup 2026. After the end of 17 overs, Scotland have 166/2. With Brendon McMullen and captain Berrington at crease, they can certainly do that. Italy bowlers haven't been great in this game either.

McMullen looks quite dangerous as he is capitalising on the magnificent start that Munsey and Jones gave. The No. 3 has already racked up 37 off 15. 

SCO vs ITA Live: 1st wicket!

09/02/2026 12:05

Italy gets its first World Cup wicket!

Grant Stewart's ball bounced awkwardly, and George Munsey went for a pull, lofting it to Manenti, who took a great catch at long-on.It ends a fantastic 126-run stand, and Munsey's 84(54) comes to an end. 😃

Brandon McMullen is the new batter in. He can really be another X-factor here. 

SCO: 127/1 in 14 overs; McMullen 1*, Jones 37*

SCO vs ITA Live: Bad news for Italy

SCO vs ITA Live: 50 Alert

09/02/2026 11:38

George Munsey has completed his 14th T20I fifty and what a time to do so. He is just going berserk. Italy bowlers are helpless against the southpaw, who has completed his fifty in 30 balls. His hitting square of the boundary have been the highlight today. Italy bowlers are now starting to bowl wide outside off stump to him. 

SCO: 74/0 in 8 overs; Munsey 57* off 35, Jones 14* off 13

SCO vs ITA Live: Powerplay done

Powerplay done and Italy fail to find a single wicket. George Munsey is absolutely key for Scotland and he is playing really well today. However, on the lsat ball of the powerplay, Italy dropped a simple catch and a chance to dismiss Munsey. Mosca the culprit.

SCO vs ITA Live: Scotland going well

Oh no, bad news for Italy 😟! Wayne Madsen's gone off the field with a possible dislocated left shoulder after a nasty stretch for the ball. Hope he's okay, but for now, Harry Manenti's taking over as captain. 

Following this, Munsey has hit three consecutive boundaries to Draca.

Time for Italy to bring in Thomas Draca, who will try to take Italy's first wicket in the T20 World Cup. So far Scottish batters haven't been troubled. Guess what's in store for the next 3 powerplay overs.

SCO vs ITA Live: Munsey vs Ali

09/02/2026 11:03

Italy have arrived at the Cricket World Cup scene! Ali Hasan opens the proceedings for them with the ball, while George Munsey faces the new ball. Three dots to start with followed by a couple of runs down the ground. However, the over ended with two boundaries towards third man region.

SCO: 10/0 after 1 over. Munsey 10*, Jones 0*
