🏏Cricket World Cup 2023: Match #34: Netherlands vs Afghanistan 🏏 - Page 12

Netherlands vs Afghanistan, 34th Match

Netherlands opt to bat

NED - 66/1 (10)

CRR: 6.60

Soham: Good to see Max O'Dowd bat with so much confidence. He's the team's vice-captain. Perfect stage for him to play a spoil sport for the Afghans.

Shaheed: "Netherlands win will see South Africa through to the semis. Am I correct?" -- very correct.

NED: 66-1 after 10 overs

Jimmy: "Really poor captaincy to continue to bowl the same bowlers throughout the powerplay despite them being offline and the batsmen having their measure"

Over Summary(1-10); Phase Winner - Netherlands

>> Mujeeb removes Barresi in the first over, picking up his 100th ODI wicket

>> Rashid fails to run out ODowd and walks off the field holding his hip after that

>> ODowd and Ackermann find their touch with a few boundaries

>> The duo stitch together a 50-run stand for the second wicket to steady Netherlands

>> Farooqi leaks some runs and looks off-colour in his first spell

Good news for Afghanistan - Rashid Khan is back on the field now!

Azmatullah Omarzai, right-arm fast medium, comes into the attack

10.1 Azmatullah to Ackermann, FOUR, Ackermann greets Azmatullah with a boundary. 135.1kph, a half-volley

seems Afghanistan will lose today, no one has scored so much against them in matches they have won

Koi toh bhagao indono ko

Qadeer : "Perhaps Afg are over confident that they will catch Netherlands anyway, no matter what they achieve."

NED: 72-1 after 11 overs
