(Reuters) - Kyle Coetzer stroked Scotland's first World Cup century to fire his team to an impressive 318 for eight against Bangladesh in their World Cup clash in Nelson on Thursday.

The 30-year-old's 156 at Saxton Oval was also the highest score by a batsman from an associate nation at the global showpiece and ensured his team would post their highest score against a test nation.
