In the Scotland-Ireland qualifier for the World Cup, two South African-born players shone. Curtis Campher, who played for the SA U19 in 2018, hit a hundred for Ireland. Meanwhile, Brandon McMullen, a former KwaZulu-Natal Inland U17s representative, took five wickets for Scotland. Scotland secured a victory after a difficult time when they were reeling at 152-7, chasing 287 to win. Michael Leask stepped up and smashed 91 from 61 balls, clinching a win to start their campaign. On the other hand, Ireland suffered a second successive Group B defeat after their opening loss to Oman. Two teams from the 10-nation event in Zimbabwe will qualify for the main tournament to be held in India in October and November.
