Rashid's Magic and Banton's Brilliance Keep England's T20 Hopes Alive

Adil Rashid's impressive performance with the ball and Tom Banton's unbeaten half-century proved crucial as England secured a much-needed five-wicket win over Scotland in the T20 World Cup. The victory keeps England's hopes of advancing to the Super Eights alive after a shocking loss to the West Indies.

Scotland seemed well on their way to a competitive score at 113 for 3, but Rashid's spin brilliance turned the match on its head. He snatched three key wickets, including that of Scotland's skipper Richie Berrington, initiating a middle-order collapse.

In response, England overcame early setbacks in their chase, thanks to Banton's composed 63 not out, aided by crucial runs from Jacob Bethell and Sam Curran. England now aims to confirm their Super Eights spot in their next clash against Italy.
