Commentary

Thanks a lot for joining us- Mohul Bhowmick and Rajarshi Das- for the coverage of Qualifier 2 of Group E of the ECC. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did bringing it to you. Until next time, ciao!

England XI beat Malta by 8 wickets!

Basil George 42 (23) | Matthew Siddall 3-0
Sam Young 37 (10) | Toby Greatwood 2-24

Sam Young and Dan Lincoln ensured that England XI faced no problems whatsoever in chasing these runs down. As we had mentioned earlier, this total would never have bothered the English side, and they practically took the Maltese to the cleaners.

The latter could not really bowl in good areas and were punished by the English batters with massive strokes out of the park. Malta's fielding let them down as well, with their fielders often resorting to dropping catches and letting the English batters run away scot-free.

The Maltese will hope that they can somehow manage to pick themselves up for next year's competition as England XI have now qualified to play the Group E final, where Switzerland await them. Malta, however, can be extremely proud of the fact that they managed to come this far in this tournament.

6.2 Imran Ameer to David Scott, SIX! Game, set, match - the England XI will have a shot at vengeance as they now face Switzerland in the final! Full, dished up in the slot, Scott, down on one knee, mows this one into the bushes at mid wicket past the hoardings. The England XI take the honours by 8 wickets!

6.1 Imran Ameer to David Scott, SIX! Dropped short close to the tramline, Scott walks across, gives it a swat, and clears deep mid wicket!

Imran Ameer is back into the attack.

England XI need 11 runs to win this game off 24 balls. They might very well get there in this over itself. Malta will therefore be knocked out of the tournament.

5.6 Waseem Abbas to David Scott, slow, short, wide outside off, Scott cuts, but finds the man at sweeper cover. Just a single

5.5 Waseem Abbas to Dan Lincoln, full outside off, drilled towards the man at long off. A single is all that they'll get

5.4 Waseem Abbas to Dan Lincoln, SIX! Full toss on off stump, Lincoln gives it a good thump with a horizontal swing of the blade, meets it well enough, and clears mid wicket!

5.3 Waseem Abbas to David Scott, dropped! A misjudgment of epic proportions from Abbas there. Full outside off, Scott looks to club this one down the ground, ends up skying it. The ball goes nowhere, Abbas tries to get under this high ball, but can't get anywhere near it!

5.2 Waseem Abbas to Dan Lincoln, full on off stump, Lincoln drills it onto the stumps at the non-striker's end. The batters take a run to long on as the ball travels there

5.1 Waseem Abbas to Dan Lincoln, FOUR! Full outside off, Lincoln goes for a big swing, doesn't quite time it right but gets it into the gap at cow corner

Waseem Abbas is back into the attack.

England XI can very well get to the target they are chasing in this over itself. Malta have capitulated in front of the English batters.

4.6 Bikram Arora to Dan Lincoln, full, past the tramline, Lincoln walks across and drives this one towards the man at deep cover. Just one

4.5 Bikram Arora to David Scott, full outside off, swatted down to long off. Just a single this time

4.4 Bikram Arora to David Scott, dropped, and the batters get a brace! Short of a length delivery outside off, Scott goes for a swat towards the off side, skies it towards deep cover, the man out there settles under it but puts it down

4.4 Bikram Arora to David Scott, no ball, SIX! Arora sprays this one close to head-height, Scott goes for a baseball-like swing, meets this one well enough, and clears the man and ropes at mid wicket!

4.3 Bikram Arora to Dan Lincoln, full outside off, dragged towards the long on region for a run

4.2 Bikram Arora to Dan Lincoln, FOUR! Full, tailing in on leg stump, Lincoln swats it towards the deep backward square leg area once again, and finds the boundary
