| 0.6 : 0.6: G O'Brien to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Boom! A cracking shot. Spoils a good first over until now. Plenty of width on offer, short and wide, Cooper rocks back and slaps it square of the wicket on the off side for a boundary. |
| 1.5 : 1.5: K Leverock to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Excellent shot. Short delivery outside off, O'Dowd slaps it over covers for a boundary. |
| 2.2 : 2.2: G O'Brien to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Poor delivery from O'Brien. Full on leg, Cooper flicks it towards fine leg for a boundary. |
| 4.2: D Brangman to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Pierces the gap this time. Short again by Brangman. Too much width and it's been slapped through the gap between point and cover-point. No stopping it. |
| 4.3 : 4.3: D Brangman to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Very poor bowling by Brangman. Not testing the Dutchmen enough. A long hop outside off and O'Dowd whacks it through extra cover. |
| 5.6 : 5.6: D Stovell to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Misfield inside the ring! Short in length and outside off, O'Dowd goes back and hammers it towards extra cover where the fielder dives but fails to make a clean stop. It hurries behind and the point fielder gives the chase. He comes second best. A boundary to close the Powerplay, Netherlands are 51/0! |
| 8.1 : 8.1: R Trott to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Fine adjustment! Short in length and outside off, Cooper jumps out of the crease, doesn't quite reach the pitch of the ball but his hands have saved him. He reaches out and slaps it through covers for a boundary. |
| 9.1: D Rawlins to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Boom! Quicker and fuller ball on middle and leg, Cooper goes down on one knee and sweeps it firmly behind square leg for a cracking boundary. |
| 9.4 : 9.4: D Rawlins to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Nice shot. Second boundary of the over. Full toss on off, O'Dowd drives it through extra cover for a boundary. |
| 9.6 : 9.6: D Rawlins to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Good shot. Flighted delivery on leg, Cooper sweeps it towards fine leg for the third boundary in this over. 14 runs have come from it as we reach the halfway mark. |
| 10.1 : 10.1: J Tucker to Max O'Dowd, SIX! First one of the game. Flighted delivery on middle, O'Dowd lofts it over long on for a biggie. |
| 11.2 : 11.2: G O'Brien to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Smashed down the ground! O'Brien serves a length ball on middle, Ben lines up the ball and clobbers it over the bowler's head. The long on fielder jogs across to his right just to pick up the ball from the rope. |
| 11.3 : 11.3: G O'Brien to Ben Cooper, FOUR! Another smashing shot by Ben Cooper. He brings up his 7th T20I fifty in style. Short in length and outside off, Ben camps back and spanks it down to long off this time for a powerful boundary. Netherlands continue to march. |
| 12.4 : 12.4: D Rawlins to Max O'Dowd, SIX! That is huge! Flighted delivery on middle, O'Dowd powers it over long on for a maximum. |
| 12.5 : 12.5: D Rawlins to Max O'Dowd, OUT! Fantastic catch at extra cover! Fuller in length and outside off, O'Dowd goes hard at it and hammers it uppishly through the line. O'Brien inside the ring throws himself to his right and catches the travelling ball. That's a superb effort. The century opening stand is broken and Bermuda would be feeling relieved. |
| 13.4 : 13.4: R Trott to Ben Cooper, OUT! Both the set batsmen dismissed in quick time! Trott fires in a flatter delivery in the line of the stumps. It's a slider which skids back into the left-hander and Cooper goes down on knee for the slog sweep. His bat swings early, the ball arrives late and the stumps are shattered. Fine knock by Cooper comes to an end and Bermuda are trying to gain some control in this match. |
| 14.3 : 14.3: D Rawlins to ten Doeschate, FOUR! Nice shot. Floated delivery on off, ten Doeschate plays a reverse sweep closely past the keeper to third man for a boundary. |
| 15.2 : 15.2: D Stovell to C Ackermann, SIX! Amazing shot. Flighted delivery on middle, Ackermann lofts it over long on for a maximum. There was a fielder in the deep but he had no chance of catching that. |
| 16.2: K Leverock to C Ackermann, FOUR! Well played! Once again there is width outside off and Ackermann gives it a good hit over covers. No chance for the fielder in the deep. |
| 16.3 : 16.3: K Leverock to C Ackermann, FOUR! Edgy this time! Leverock continues to offer width outside off. Colin throws his bat at it and this time it runs off the outside edge to third man for a boundary. |
| 17.6 : 17.6: R Trott to ten Doeschate, SIX! Tonk! Trott bowled a fabulous over until this delivery. He serves right in the slot for the batsman. Ten Doeschate clears his front leg and launches it into the stand at mid-wicket. 4-0-31-1, Rodney Trott has bowled out. |
| 18.1 : 18.1: K Leverock to C Ackermann, FOUR! Innovation from Ackermann. He shuffles across the stumps to line up the length delivery served wide outside off and then he spoons it over short fine leg for a boundary. 50-run stand comes up in quick time! |
| 18.3 : 18.3: K Leverock to ten Doeschate, OUT! That's a well-judged catch in the deep by Oronde Bascome! Leverock delivers a length ball outside off, probably a slower one, ten Doeschate tries to smash it across the line over the leg side but is early into his shot. It catches the top edge and flies straight down the ground. Oronde moves across to his right from long off, settles underneath it and then catches it over his head before going down. |
| 18.5 : 18.5: K Leverock to C Ackermann, FOUR! Once again Colin is cheeky with his shot to gather a boundary. He picks the line early, it's outside off and Ackermann immediately jumps across the stumps. After that, he brings out his paddle scoop to beat short fine leg. |
| 18.6 : 18.6: K Leverock to C Ackermann, FOUR! 17 runs from the over and Netherlands are just 9 short of 200! Leverock pitches it up and outside off, Ackermann gives it the full whack of his bat and muscles it down to long on for a boundary. |
| 19.3 : 19.3: D Rawlins to S Edwards, FOUR! Nice improvisation. Flighted delivery on off, Edwards plays a reverse sweep over point for a boundary. |
| 19.6 : 19.6: D Rawlins to C Ackermann, SIX! Finishes the innings with a big blow. Short in length on middle, Ackermann turns inside the crease and hammers it over square leg for a biggie. Netherlands finish on 206/3! |
| 0.2 : 0.2: F Klaassen to O Bascome, FOUR! First boundary for Bermuda. Short delivery on middle, Bascome pulls it through mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 1.6 : 1.6: van Meekeren to D Stovell, FOUR! Short and on middle, Stovell pulls it through mid-wicket. The fielder from square leg runs to his left but fails to pull the ball back. The ball finally crosses the rope. The umpire signals it a boundary. |
| 2.5 : 2.5: van der Merwe to O Bascome, OUT! That's plumb in front! Van der Merwe has fooled the batsman with a well-disguised arm ball. He delivers it from wide of the crease and lands it close to the off stump line. The ball pitches and skids into the right-hander who picks it very late and then tries to bail himself out by playing the flick shot. But he fails to put bat on ball and gets rapped on the pads. The appeal goes up and so does the finger. Early setback in this run chase for Bermuda and Roe |
| 2.6 : 2.6: van der Merwe to A Douglas, FOUR! Full toss on middle, Douglas looks to flick but gets an outside edge. It goes towards third man for a boundary. 6 runs and a wicket from the over. |
| 3.4 : 3.4: C Ackermann to D Stovell, OUT! Another one trapped in front of the wickets! Both the openers are back in the hut without doing any damage. Ackermann gets a flighted delivery to spin back into the batsman from outside off. Stovell is caught on the back foot attempting to work it on the leg side. But he is beaten by the spin on the ball and is thudded on the pads. The umpire wastes no time in raising his finger after the appeal from the Dutch players. The dismal tournament with the bat contin |
| 4.6 : 4.6: van der Gugten to D Rawlins, SIX! That is huge! On a length on middle, Rawlins lofts it over long on for a maximum. 10 runs have come from the over. |
| 5.4 : 5.4: van Meekeren to D Rawlins, FOUR! Innovative here. Meekeren once again goes short and Rawlins just comes inside the line of the ball and paddles it over the keeper and into the fine leg fence. A welcome boundary here for Bermuda. |
| 5.6 : 5.6: van Meekeren to D Rawlins, OUT! The bowler gets his revenge and is all pumped up. Paul van Meekeren sticks to bowling in the line of the stumps and Rawlins once again tries to be cheeky with his paddle scoop. Delray is way too early in shuffling across the stumps and he is so far away from the line of the ball that he ends up missing it completely. The leg stump is disturbed and the short stay of Rawlins is over. |
| 7.2 : 7.2: van der Merwe to J Tucker, FOUR! Nice shot. Tossed up on off, Tucker drives it through covers for a boundary. |
| 9.5 : 9.5: C Ackermann to A Douglas, FOUR! Nice shot. Short delivery on middle, Douglas pulls it over mid-wicket for a boundary. The fielder there was not aware to go for the catch so it went past him. |
| 10.4 : 10.4: van der Merwe to J Tucker, FOUR! Tossed up outside off, Tucker lofts it cleanly over the bowler and sends it rolling to the long off fence. A welcome boundary. |
| 10.5 : 10.5: van der Merwe to J Tucker, OUT! BOWLED! Slider from van der Merwe on off, Tucker looks to cut it past point. But he is nowhere in position to play that. In the end he gets cramped for room and the ball crashes into the off stump. Bermuda in dire straits with four down. |
| 11.1 : 11.1: P Seelaar to A Douglas, FOUR! Cracking shot. Short of a length delivery outside off, Douglas cuts it hard through point for a boundary. |
| 11.4 : 11.4: P Seelaar to A Douglas, OUT! CAUGHT! Short delivery on middle, Douglas pulls it over square leg but does not get the distance on it. It goes towards Max O'Dowd who comes forward and takes a good catch in the deep. The fight is over from Douglas and Bermuda lose half their side now. |
| 12.6 : 12.6: van der Merwe to K Leverock, FOUR! Tossed up and outside off, Leverlock dances down the track and lofts it over the bowler. The ball just about bounces inside the ropes before going over the ropes. A boundary to end the over. |
| 13.6: van Meekeren to K Leverock, SIX! Amazing shot. Short delivery on middle, Leverock pulls it over mid-wicket for a biggie. |
| 14.4 : 14.4: S Snater to K Leverock, FOUR! Length and outside off, Leverock creams the drive through covers. The fielder from long off runs to his right but comes second as the ball races away to the fence. |
| 15.3 : 15.3: van der Gugten to K Leverock, SIX! What a shot! Length delivery on middle, Leverock comes down the track and lofts it over mid-wicket for a maximum. |
| 15.4 : 15.4: van der Gugten to K Leverock, SIX! Two in two! Short delivery on leg, Leverock pulls it over short fine leg for a biggie. |
| 15.6 : 15.6: van der Gugten to K Leverock, OUT! Leverock holes out! A good cameo from him but it only helped Bermuda in delaying the inevitable. It's an off pace delivery landing full outside off. Leverock goes hard at it and tries to tower it into the stands at long off. But he gets more height than distance on his shot and Ackermann moves across to his right in the deep to grab the skier safely. |
| 16.3 : 16.3: P Seelaar to D Darrell, OUT! Roelof van der Merwe is a sharp fielder and makes this tough catch look ridiculously easy. An arm ball is fired in on a fuller length around off. Darrell tries a lofted shot across the line but it takes the inner half and flies over mid-wicket. Roelof picks it early, charges forward from the deep and dives to snap it inches above the ground. Neat and tidy effort and Bermuda lose their 7th wicket. |
| 17.1 : 17.1: van Meekeren to O Bascome, FOUR! Excellent shot. Full on off, Bascome lofts it straight over the bowler's head for a boundary. |
| 17.4 : 17.4: van Meekeren to O Bascome, OUT! Another one bites the dust! A length delivery in the line of the stumps, Bascome swings his bat across the line for a big shot but doesn't get enough meat behind it. The ball flies and settles down into the hands of Klaassen at long on. |
| 17.5 : 17.5: van Meekeren to D Brangman, OUT! Corker of a yorker and the leg stump goes for a walk. Van Meekeren is on a hat-trick. Terrific delivery. He nails his yorker and it's too hot to handle for Brangman. By the time his bat comes down, the ball has gone through to uproot the leg pole. Paul has a smile on his face after picking his third wicket of the match. |
| 19.2 : 19.2: van der Gugten to G O'Brien, FOUR! Short delivery outside off, O'Brien makes room and slaps it over extra cover for a boundary. |
