500 anyone? :ph34r:
I don't think 500 will happen in the tournament, although with the pitch perfect for batting, and the Aussies probably wanting to make a statement, I'd say it'll be more likely here than anywhere.

I'd be thinking around 400 though....that would mean the record ( 398 ) could get broken, but 500, no.

I think people aren't giving Scotland enough credit here, I reckon they might restrict Australia to under 300 if things go well and they focus on line and length.

I don't think the result is in doubt and will be a thumping but Scotland certainly aren't the worst OD team about.

Assuming you mean WC record.

Yeah... I mean, they won a game in last year's C&G and didn't constantly finish bottom of the NL in 2003, 4 and 5.

Oh, wait...

I dunno, the pitch doesn't sound like it is very fast and the outfield isn't lightning. If they do restrict to under 300, they'll get out for under 100.

Haha, as I type, 12 runs taken off the last 5 balls.

Australia doing it very easily so far and still keeping up 10 an over. The Scot's are bowling in the 120's and just dont look like getting a wicket unless Gilly or Hayden make a mistake.
