Full commentary

So there we go. A very strange match with the rain interruptions that Scotland must have though was all over a couple of hours ago before being asked to knock off a few more runs. A few nervy moments but they got there in the end, and Kenya will be proud of the effort they put in the field to give Scotland a scare chasing such a low total.

Please join me again tomorrow at 2pm for a T20 between the sides, but for now from Callum Stewart in Aberdeen it's good afternoon.
