Scotland 'A' beat Jersey in warm-up matches

Jersey are beaten twice by Scotland 'A' in their T20 World Cup qualifier warm-up matches at Grainville.

Scotland 'A' delivered a commanding performance in their T20 warm-up series, securing two convincing victories over Jersey at Grainville. These matches served as crucial preparation for Jersey, who are building towards next month's European qualifiers in Cyprus for the 2028 T20 World Cup.

The opening game set the tone, with Scotland 'A' posting a competitive 191-6. A dominant 131-run partnership between Lloyd Brown (76) and Michael English (57) formed the backbone of their innings, though Jersey's Zak Tribe fought back impressively with figures of 4-28. In reply, Jersey's chase was anchored by Harrison Carlyon's 52 and a brisk 40 from Julius Sumerauer, but they ultimately fell 17 runs short, bowled out for 164.

Scotland 'A' carried that momentum into the second match, producing an even more dominant display. Jersey posted 180-7, thanks largely to Zak Tribe's 65, but it proved insufficient. Hampshire's Ali Orr then stole the show with a magnificent, unbeaten 102, guiding his side to a comprehensive nine-wicket victory with a whopping four overs to spare.

For Jersey, these matches against a strong Scotland 'A' side provided valuable high-pressure experience as they fine-tune their game ahead of the critical World Cup qualifying pathway.
