Last-ball triumph for Bermuda

Latafat Ali Siddiqui

June 30, 2001

Left-armer Asim Butt bowled with fire in warm and humid conditions on Thursday to give Scotland a winning start in the ICC Trophy.

Butt snapped up five wickets for 11 runs to help the pretournament favourite score a six-wicket win over Fiji who were bowled out for 41 in 20.4 overs at King City cricket ground.

In other matches on the opening day, Bermuda defeated Denmark in a last-ball thriller, Canada routed Singapore by nine wickets and Malaysia scored a massive 166-run victory over a hapless France.

In the most exciting match of the day at the Ross Lord cricket ground, Bermuda, batting first, collected 200 for nine with Charlie Marshall scoring 67. In his 78-minute belligerent knock, he cracked four sixes and eight boundaries.

The Danes were on course for victory when Morten Andersen (55) and Thomas Hansen (32) were together at the crease. But once they departed, Denmark buckled under pressure to finish at 198 for nine in allotted 50 overs.

In a Group B match, Shankar Retinam scored the first century of the tournament powering Malaysia to an emphatic 166-run victory over France. The opener slammed 118 off 112 balls with the aid of 11 boundaries as Malaysia raced to 321 at the Ajax Stadium, 30 kilometers east of Toronto.

In reply, France crashed to 155 all out.
