Tom Banton's unbeaten 63 and Jacob Bethell's 32 helped England edge out Scotland by five wickets with 10 balls to spare in the 23rd match of the T20 World Cup 2026 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday. This was also England's first victory against a European side in T20 World Cup history.

Earlier, England opted to bowl on a juicy surface, and Jofra Archer had an instant effect in the second over of his spell, taking two early wickets in the powerplay -- George Munsey (4) and Brandon McMullen (0).
