The West Indies have lost the first game of their ICC T20 World Cup campaign to Scotland. The two-time champs lost by 42 runs earlier today. The game is the second upset of the tournament upset in two days after Namibia’s win over Sri Lanka.

George Munsey scored an unbeaten 66 from 53 deliveries to take Scotland to 160 for five after being sent in to bat in at Hobart.

Scotland produced a stellar effort in the field to restrict West Indies to 118 in 18.3 overs in reply in the Group B opener.

Left-arm spinner Mark Watt (3-12) opened the bowling and took three wickets, and pace bowler Brad Wheal (2-32) and offspinner Michael Leask (2-15) each took two wickets.

The teams placing first and second in each of the preliminary-round groups will advance to the Super 12 round.
