The West Indies achieved a crushing 301-run win over Scotland in their group match in the ICC Under-19 World Cup in Dunedin today.
The West Indians batted first and amassed 402/3. Donovan Pagon scored 176 off only 129 balls in an innings that included 21 fours and five sixes while Lendl Simmons was 121 not out off 120 balls and Alcindo Holder hit 56 not out off only 22 balls, including three fours and five sixes.
Scotland had no response at all and were dismissed for 101 in 38.3 overs. Qasim Sheikh hit 37 off 77 balls for his side but that was the sum response among the Scots. Ryan Nurse took three wickets for 18 runs, Narsingh Deonarine took two for 12 and Ravindranath Rampaul took 2/28.
Scotland should find more comfort in its match tomorrow against Kenya while the big match of the round is shaping on Wednesday between the Australians and the West Indies.
