In a thrilling T20 World Cup encounter, all-rounder Michael Leask delivered an impressive performance, contributing a late innings flourish with 22 not out and claiming four wickets for just 17 runs. His efforts came on the heels of opener George Munsey’s explosive 84 runs, leading Scotland to a commanding victory over debutants Italy by 73 runs in their Group C match on Monday. Italy, chasing a daunting target of 207-4, struggled and crumbled to 134-9 in just 16.4 overs, with captain Wayne Madsen sidelined due to a shoulder injury. In another match, Zimbabwe secured an eight-wicket win against Oman.
