Scotland have lost their third wicket in form of Matt Machan. Steven Finn struck in his very first over and got the wicket from an edge that went in Jos Buttler’s gloves. Chris Woakes got the wicket of Freddie Coleman only shortly before. Woakes was called in as first change for James Anderson and struck with his very first delivery. The first wicket to fall was Calum MacLeod. MacLeod attempted a poor shot dancing down to a good length James Anderson delivery, which was moving away.

Coleman tried to hit the ball over covers and timed it well but got the placement completely wrong getting the safe hands of a delighted England skipper Eoin Morgan. Kyle Coetzer has looked quite confident at the other end and will want to build a partnership with skipper Preston Mommsen. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: POINTS TABLE

Earlier England put 303 runs on the board after getting a brilliant start by Moeen Ali who smashed 128 off 107 balls. Ali and Bell put up a record 172-run partnership but the other English batsmen failed to capitalise. Josh Davey was the pick of the bowlers, taking four wickets for 68 runs and helped stifle the run-flow with crucial wickets. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: SCHEDULE & MATCH DETAILS
