Henry, Dottin, Joseph set up big win for West Indies
Written by I Dig SportsWest Indies 101 for 4 (Joseph 31, Dottin 28*, Bell 2-18) beat Scotland 99 for 8 (Lister 26, Fletcher 3-22) by six wickets
West Indies romped to a six-wicket victory over Scotland to secure their first win of the T20 World Cup in Dubai with 50 balls to spare. The win boosted their net run rate to 1.154 and they're now on the top of Group B table. The result leaves Scotland with two defeats in as many games, though the margin of defeat could prove even more dire to their qualification chances.
Henry was named Player of the Match for her burst at the top of Scotland's innings which yielded figures of 1 for 10, before her boundary-laden knock ensured a brisk victory.
Scotland were simply second-best in all the areas that mattered with only Kathryn Bryce and Ailsa Lister with any innings of note. With the ball, meanwhile, they picked up wickets and caught much better than their opponents but were unable to stem the flow of runs - the most crucial factor when aiming to defend such a low total.
