Starc-Maxwell were thrashed, gave away 96 runs in 10 overs of SCO

New Delhi. In the T20 World Cup 2024 match, the Scotland team thrashed the Australian bowlers today. Before the match, the Kangaroo team must have felt that they would easily win the match against Scotland, but it did not happen. Scotland’s batsmen hit a lot of fours and sixes. In just 10 overs, this team scored 96 runs for the loss of two wickets. Be it Maxwell or Mitchell Starc, whoever came in front of the Scotland batsmen, they were thrashed badly.

With this, the Scotland team also made a record. Scotland made its best score in the T20 World Cup. In the stipulated 20 overs, this team scored 180 runs at the loss of five wickets. Earlier, this team had made its best score of 176/5 in T20 International. However, despite this, they had to face defeat in the 19th over in that match against the Ireland team.

England’s breath took a heavy toll
With this brilliant performance against a big team like Australia, Scotland not only attracted the attention of sports lovers but also took the breath away from England’s captain Jos Buttler who was watching this T20 World Cup match from outside. Actually, England needed Australia’s victory over Scotland at any cost to secure its place in the Super-8. If Scotland had won this match, England would have been out of the tournament. While chasing the target of 181 runs, the Kangaroos lost three wickets for 60 runs. However, Travis Hand and Marcus Stoinis together somehow got them the victory.

Stark-Maxwell got beaten up badly
Scotland’s Brandon McMullen played a blistering innings of 60 runs in 34 balls. This batsman, who scored runs at a strike rate of 176, hit six sixes and two fours. Richie Berrington scored 42 runs in 31 balls and opening batsman George Munsey scored 43 runs in 23 balls. Australia’s Mitchell Starc gave away 31 runs in his/her four overs. Glenn Maxwell bowled four overs, in which he/she gave away 44 runs. At the same time, Ashton Agar gave away 39 runs in his/her four overs.
