Adil Rashid’s triple strike set up the contest before Tom Banton’s unbeaten half century guided England to a crucial five-wicket win over Scotland, keeping their Super Eights hopes alive in the T20 World Cup, here on Saturday.

In their must-win Group C clash after their shock loss to West Indies, two-time champions England first rode on Rashid (3-36) and Liam Dawson (2-34) to choke Scotland in the back end and bowl them out for 152 in 19.4 overs after opting to field.
