Kathryn Bryce's Efforts Fail to Secure Scotland's World Cup Dream
Despite Kathryn Bryce's heroic century and wickets, Scotland lost to Ireland, dashing their World Cup hopes.


Captain Kathryn Bryce's remarkable unbeaten century and three wickets weren't sufficient to keep Scotland's aspirations of qualifying for the Cricket World Cup alive. Ireland claimed a narrow one-wicket victory in a thrilling encounter in Lahore. Scotland, after a shaky start, reached 268, their highest ODI score, but Ireland fought back strongly. Ireland's Laura Delany played a crucial role with an unbeaten 57 to seal the win. Both Scotland and Ireland finish with two wins from five games.
