Scotland slumped to a crushing defeat to Kenya on Monday to leave their hopes of qualifying for the next World Cup hanging in the balance.

The Scots looked set for their second Super Eight victory in three days when they bowled their opponents out for just 178 in Krugersdorp.

But they were all out for 154 in reply to lose by 24 runs at the Stan Friedman Oval.

Victory would have lifted them above their opponents into fourth place in the table, the final qualifying spot for the 2011 World Cup.

Defeat means they are now two points adrift with just two fixtures remaining.
