Chris Greaves starred with bat and ball as Scotland shocked Bangladesh with a six-run win on Sunday’s opening day of the Twenty20 World Cup. Greaves’ 28-ball 45 guided Scotland to 140/9 and he then took two key wickets with his leg spin to keep down Bangladesh to 134/7 in the second first-round match of the day in Muscat. Greaves, who had earlier rescued Scotland from 53/6 with his batting, sent back Shakib Al Hasan, for 20, and Mushfiqur Rahim, for 38 to dent Bangladesh’s chase. Pace bowler Brad Wheal returned figures of 3/24 as world number six Bangladesh suffered an early setback in their fight to make the Super 12 stage.
