- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3 full this time and MacLeod just about clings on the the outside edge. An attractive start from Myburgh coems to an end. 17/129.1 huge blow! Haq's mistake is reprieved almost immediately, as Coetzer takes a super catch at midwicket, low to his left, to get rid of Swart, who could have been very dangerous indeed. 124/420.4 that was exactly what Scotland needed! Szwarczynski tries to whip a yorker through the leg side, but misses and is adjudicated LBW. Looked a little leg side from here but he has to go, and Scotland have their second wicket. 91/226.1 good length ball, defended well. 118/331.5 got him! Tried to flick the ball over the slips again, but only nicked it to the keeper. Borren walks too, which is always nice to see.3 141/532.1 another one goes, this time the tall Cooper. Tries to drive with the spin, but only succeeds in edging to the only slip, who takes a superb diving catch. Scotland really turning the screw now. 141/640.3 the kiss of death from the commentator, as Sharif gets on to shape away a touch. Seelaar never moved his feet and followed it, nicking it to MacLeod who took a good diving catch to his right with no slip in. 175/845.4 gone this time, bit quicker, and Jamil played across the line attempting to sweep. Looked pretty adjacent. 208/9Extras29 (b 8, lb 10, nb 1, w 10)TOTAL252/9 (50 Overs, RR: 5.04)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Stephan Myburgh, 2.6 ov), 2-91 (Eric Szwarczynski, 20.4 ov), 3-118 (Wesley Barresi, 26.1 ov), 4-124 (Michael Swart, 29.1 ov), 5-141 (Peter Borren, 31.5 ov), 6-141 (Ben Cooper, 32.1 ov), 7-159 (Mudassar Bukhari, 36.1 ov), 8-175 (Pieter Seelaar, 40.3 ov), 9-208 (Ahsan Malik, 45.4 ov)
- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.5 gone! bit of a fence from the skipper outside off stump, and Barresi dives to his right to take a superb one-handed catch. 38/132 breakthrough! Borren brought back his openers for a wicket, and they've got a prized one. Tried to whip it away on the leg side, but it was too straight, and he looks pretty annoyed with life. 157/332.5 that's bnad cricket. Mommsen gets bounced and top-edges it straight down to fine leg. In the match situation, that was not what was needed. Two new men at the crease. 161/434.5 they just keep going. Leask hit 42 against England not long ago off just 19 balls, but he has spliced a pull shot midwicket now, and Scotland are in very very deep trouble. 173/633.2 another one goes! This pitch has turned, and Berrington was hit pretty much plumb in front. Serious wobble on now. 161/540 gone now, and probably Scotland's hopes with him. Trying to turn another half-tracker into the leg side, he got a leading edge and it spooned to mid-on. 196/836.3 that is unlucky. Sharif was playing back and it has kept low and cleaned him up. Majid Haq in next. 182/743 cleaned up, full and straight does the trick for van Meekeren, who has three wickets now, and deservedly so. Here comes Ally Evans, who has a back injury, but looks to be moving alright so may yet be able do a bit of damage. 202/945 and that is the end of that. Evans goes for another big mow and hits it straight up in the air. The keeper comes round and takes the catch, and the Netherlands win by 34 runs. 208/10Extras16 (lb 4, nb 1, w 11)TOTAL208 all out (45 Overs, RR: 4.62)Fall of wickets: 1-38 (Kyle Coetzer, 7.5 ov), 2-79 (Calum MacLeod, 15.3 ov), 3-157 (Hamish Gardiner, 31.6 ov), 4-161 (Preston Mommsen, 32.5 ov), 5-161 (Richie Berrington, 33.2 ov), 6-173 (Michael Leask, 34.5 ov), 7-182 (Safyaan Sharif, 36.3 ov), 8-196 (Josh Davey, 39.6 ov), 9-202 (Iain Wardlaw, 42.6 ov), 10-208 (Alasdair Evans, 44.6 ov)
