ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2, Titwood, GlasgowNamibia 215-7 (50 overs): Erasmus 56, Frylinck 60*, Tahir 3-38 Main 3-38Scotland 219-7 (48.5 overs): MacLeod 59, Greaves 53* Sharif 40*, Trumpelmann 3-41 Scotland win by three 7 wickets to win with seven balls in reserve.

Scotland faltered on 136-7, despite a solid 59 from Calum MacLeod.

But some big shots from Greaves and Sharif got them over the line in overcast and windy Titwood.

Scotland, who beat Namibia by 77 runs on Sunday and lost to Nepal by five wickets on Wednesday, complete this tri-a series against Nepal at the same ground on Sunday.

Captain Gerhard Erasmus made it 56, while Jan Frylinck finished on 60 steps as Namibia went 215-7 .

Hamza Tahir and Gavin Main each produced numbers of 3 -38 while visitors were limited to a modest passing rate of 4.3 per over.

Scotland lost fly-half Kyle Coetzer for three in the second but had improved to 80-2 by the time Matthew Cross was fired for 29.

Richie Berrington's miserable scoring since becoming captain continued with a duck, but MacLeod, who made 50 against the same opponents over the weekend, was in good touch again, with its 59 including seven to four.
