Scotland's World Cup League 2 visit to Namibia has been marred by rain and disappointment, as they lost to Oman by 12 runs in a reduced-overs match. The Scots, who were expected to challenge in this tournament, are now facing an uphill battle to salvage their campaign. The match, which was reduced to 20 overs per side due to poor weather conditions, saw Oman post a competitive total of 128 before Scotland's batsmen struggled to make an impact. Scotland's batting has been a concern all season, and it's been a long-standing issue for the team. The Scots have struggled to find consistency in their top order, which has led to a reliance on their middle and lower order batsmen to score heavily. Captain Kyle Coetzer, who has been the driving force behind Scotland's resurgence in recent years, was expected to lead from the front but failed to make a significant impact in this match. Coetzer, a seasoned campaigner with a wealth of experience, has been one of Scotland's most consistent performers, with a career average of over 40 in ODIs. Scotland's team context has been a major talking point this season, with many pundits tipping them to challenge in the World Cup League 2.
