Namibia slumped to 67 all out in reply with Paul Hoffman claiming 4-14.

UAE captain Khurram Khan scored a century as his side beat the USA by five wickets while Holland easily defeated Canada by 67 runs.

It was difficult going for the Scotland batsmen, with Namibia bowling and fielding exceptionally well.

Van Rooi was the pick of the Namibian bowlers with his excellent spell while Gavin Hamilton top scored for Scotland with 40.

Namibia never recovered from sliding to 29-4 with Hoffman claiming the man of the match award for his impressive display.

Fellow seamers Dougie Brown (3-17) and John Blain (3-33) also performed well for Scotland.

"It was great to win this one today, especially after a disappointing loss yesterday," said Blain.

"The boy's are looking forward to a rest and then can't wait to take on UAE on Wednesday."

Scotland's round three encounter against an undefeated and confident UAE side promises to be a terrific contest.

Fahd Usman was part of UAE's win over the US
