Oliver Davidson Refers To a Note Just Before Dismissing Jacob Bethell in ENG vs SCO T20 World Cup 2026 Clash [WATCH]

Amogh Bodas

Scotland bowler Oliver Davidson did something identical to what Mark Watt did in 2021, and soon got rid of Jacob Bethell.

There’s something about Scotland, which makes players good students of the game. Mark Watt referred to a note from his pocket a few years ago while he was on the field, and Oliver Davidson recreated the same frame before getting rid of England batter Jacob Bethell.

The incident took place in the 10th over of the second innings, and opened the door for the Scotland men to sneak into the game. Bethell, who was well set on 32 runs attempted to get the ball over short-fine leg, which ended into the hands of the fielder.

However, just before bowling the delivery, Oliver Davidson referred to a note from his pocket – which was enough to get rid of England’s middle-order batter. That being said, the incident quickly spread across social media, indicating a resemblance to what Mark Watt did a few years ago.

How Oliver Davidson Adds Balance to the Scotland Side

Oliver Davidson provides a lot of balance to the side, with his all-round abilities. Though it will be interesting to see what was written on the piece of paper, the fact that he contributed with the bat and ball both would not be a surprise at all.

In the brief career that Davidson has performed in, he has managed to add a lot of value to the side with his exploits. Against England, he managed a brisk 15-ball 20 towards the later stages of the match after Scotland lost wickets in a heap.

On the flip side, his economy has been a bit on the higher side of things, and that is something he will look to work on in the later stages of his career.

Scotland now face Nepal in their last fixture in the T20 World Cup 2026, which will be a must-win game for them in order to book a qualification berth. Not just that, but the Scottish side will have to ensure that they win by a considerable margin to make an impact – and also hope that either England or the West Indies falter in their games.
