Sri Lanka bowled out for 245



Sri Lanka were bowled out for 245 against Scotland in their ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier in Bulawayo. 

Sri Lanka were well-placed on 203 for 4 in the 39th over, but lost five wickets for 25 runs, completely derailing their innings.

Scotland's spinners Christopher Greaves and Mark Watt shared seven wickets, with leg spinner Greaves taking 4 for 32, and Watt returning figures of 3 for 52. 

Greaves triggered the collapse in the 40th over, dismissing Dhananjaya de Silva and Dasun Shanaka off consecutive deliveries. 

Asalanka, who had batted brilliantly with 63 off 65 fell to Watt in the following over. 

The pair chipped away at the Sri Lanka's batting, before a 17-run final wicket partnership between Kasun Rajitha and Lahiru Kumara ensured Sri Lanka's innings went into the final over. 

Sri Lanka 245 in 49.3 overs (Pathum Nissanka 75, Charith Asalanka 63, Chris Greaves 4 for 32, Mark Watt 3 for 52)
