There's no point Scotland aiming for 350 and getting rolled for 150 though... I reckon they're probably doing the right thing.They need to win to get ODI status. 15/0 after 5 won't get them anywhere...
Also, CI said Szwarczynski opened the bowling for Netherlands...

Bring back Fraser Watts! 
Much better. But now they have to push on and not stop taking wickets after they've collected 5 or 6. It's what did them in against the Scots.

They've been doing this all tournament and ending up with 150/1 off 40, after which the entire lower order collapses into itself under the pressure of having to score at 2 runs a ball from the moment they arrive at the crease and they're all out for 200. The bowlers have bailed them out a few times but it's been these exact batting tactics that have lost them games.

There's no real danger of Canada not qualifying is there? They're so far ahead of the next two on NRR that they'd have to be rolled over for under 100 and lose in 12 overs or so to slip out of the top four. They haven't made an ideal start, but it looks as if Billcliff and Bagai are digging in.

Just watched the highlights of the Neth-Ire game. Admittedly low quality footage, but Morgan does not look England standard. Let him stay with Ireland.
His one shot appeared to be the front foot swipe to mid-wicket regardless of where the ball pitched or the pace of the bowler.

Canada should be fine unless very bizarre things happen.
This cricinfo page is very good for explaining the possible outcomes.

Your basing that on one innings where he had a slog cus the game was already won and he was playing a useless spinner?
I don't think he actually good enough either, but he not much worse then the likes Bopra and Shah.
14.1 Odhiambo to N O'Brien, 1 run. DROPPED. Sprawliing attempt at first slip but Tikolo, surprisingly, couldn't hold on
Could be a crucial moment.
14.4 Odhiambo to K O'Brien, 1 run. DROPPED. This time at second slip by Tikolo (the first chance was spilled by Obuya
Oh dear.

Cricket Europe have retired hurt.Cricinfo is showing Poonia as 'retired out' - what's happened there?
It's not a warm-up game.

Oh, I admit it was a small sample size. Was against the medium pacers as well as the spinner though.
