Netherlands registered a comprehensive five-wicket win over Zimbabwe at the Adelaide Oval to hamper its chances of qualifying for the semi-finals in the ongoing T20 World Cup
Max ODowd played a superb half-century knock to help his team register a clinical win over Zimbabwe. Paul van Meekeren bowled a fiery spell to claim three wickets to his name, restricting Zimbabwe to 117.
A 35-run stand between Colin Ackermann (27) and skipper Scott Edwards (15) was useful for the Dutch to stay away from a humiliating finish. Shadab Khan (3/22) made sure that Netherlands' back was broken in the first half itself, which led to them not even touching 100-run mark
Both teams are winless in the tournament so far and they sit at the final two positions of the points table. A win will be good for Pakistan after a loss to arch-rivals Pakistan in their first match and a shock loss to Zimbabwe next
The Netherlands prevailed over Namibia in another low-scoring thriller by nine wickets at the Simonds Stadium, Geelong to clinch their second straight victory in the ICC World Cup on Tuesday
Chasing the target, Netherlands got off to a flier with opener Vikramjit Singh going hell for leather from the very beginning. The batter smashed two consecutive boundaries in the first over.
The Dutch team avoided a major scare to register a three-wicket win over a spirited UAE in a humdinger of a match. UAE suffered a batting collapse in the final over of its innings to end with just 111 runs, setting a paltry total for the Netherlands. Bas de Leede starred with the ball to help restrict UAE.
