Finch helped get Australia off to a flying start, smashing three fours and a six during his stay at the crease as the hosts looked to fly towards the meagre 131-run target set earlier by their opposition.

Scotland were earlier bowled out for a paltry score of 130 in 25.4 overs, with Mitchell Starc starring with ball with a haul of four for 14 in less than five overs. Starc moved to the top of the bowling charts as a result, getting 16 scalps to his credit at the end of the league stages. Starc was well-supported by comeback man Pat Cummins, who took three wickets for 42 in seven overs. Cummins was picked into the playing eleven in place of Xavier Doherty. The match was delayed by a brief spell of rain, following which Starc bowled the last two batsmen in the same over. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: Complete Coverage
