Scotland right in this
You can say that again, what a great competition this is. Far better than the actual World Cup.

Watching Stirling score a big century, very glad Ireland did not qualify as they have the batsman to score 300 plus against us, not sure Scotland have the same batting ability even though they have some decent spinners.

Scotland are probably ahead in this game, Sri Lanka are going to have to bowl well. What odds would you have got at the beginning of this tournament to have Scotland and Zim as the potentially undefeated sides.

Do we want Scotland or Sri Lanka to win? I know there is the "you just win your own matches and take care of your own business" element but who are we cheering for?

Any result which means the "bigger sides" don't qualify is fine by me.

Has to be Scotland surely, anything that shows the ICC that its worth having an expanded World Cup

Indeed Scotland taking point off Sri Lanka that if it comes off makes thing very interesting. It just means we still need to be winning our games to go through.
