LONDON, United Kingdom (AFP) — Aaliyah Alleyne’s late three-wicket burst helped West Indies survive a huge scare at Headingley on Thursday as they beat Scotland by just seven runs to secure a second win in the Women’s T20 World Cup.

The 31-year-old medium-pacer dismissed Darcey Carter, Ailsa Lister and Kirstie Gordon in the penultimate over of the Group B encounter after Carter’s half-century had given the Scots real hope of chasing down a target of 154.

Tight bowling from West Indies spinners Hayley Matthews and Afy Fletcher, who between them took 5-35, slowed Scotland’s charge before Alleyne turned the screw.
