Thaker's 2nd straight century helps Canada improve to 4-0 in ICC Cricket World Cup League 2

Harsh Thaker hit his second straight century to help Canada defeat Scotland by five wickets Thursday and remain unbeaten after four matches in ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 play in Dubai.

Thaker, who scored his maiden one-day international century with an unbeaten 111 in Tuesday's win over the United Arab Emirates, scored 105 not out Thursday with eight fours and one six in his 151-ball innings at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.

Brandon McMullen led Scotland with 36 runs.

Batting fifth, Thaker rescued the Canadians whose first four batsmen totalled just 26 runs. Nicholas Kirton and Shreyas Movva assisted the turnaround with 44 and 20 runs, respectively, as Canada reached 200 for five in 45.4 overs.

Thaker was named man of the match for the second week in a row.
