The third and final game of the T20I series between UAE and Scotland will be played on Thursday, March 14. This high-octane clash will be held at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, with the series levelled at 1-1.

UAE won the first T20I comprehensively before the Scottish side bounced back to level the series by winning the second game. It was a thriller of a contest and Scotland managed to emerge victorious last night.

After being asked to bat first, the Scottish side kept losing wickets at regular intervals and finished their innings on 121/8, with skipper Matthew Cross top-scoring with 35. Junaid Siddique continued his rich form with the ball and registered figures of 4/18.

In reply, UAE’s batters faltered as they never got going. Akif Raja lower down the order kept them in the chase but it wasn’t meant to be as they fell short by nine runs. Scotland picked up nine wickets in total, with Jack Jarvis chipping in with three as they defended the total successfully.

The second T20I went down the wire and the Scottish players held their nerves to come out on top and level the series. They will be high in confidence after the win and will be looking to seal the series on Thursday. UAE, meanwhile, will be hoping to bounce back in the final T20I.
