Dante: "333 at a run rate of 6.66 is a beast of a total. Not something I'd want to chase."
Good flourish at the end and New Zealand have posted triple-nelson. After Nicholls' wicket, Guptill and Young stitched a 202 run partnership for the 2nd wicket. The middle took failed to capitalize on the start provided but the skipper Latham and Doug Bracewell gave the impetus needed to reach 300 mark. The Dutch bowlers teed off well at start but the couldn't stop the bleeding. Klaassen, van Beek, Aaryan and Floyd shared two wickets each. Join us for the chase.

Dutt to DAJ Bracewell, OUT, gone! Length ball this time around, tried to slog this over mid-wicket. Not much timing on this one which means a power-failure, Bas de Leede motors in from mid-wicket, dives forward and grabs a lovely-lovely catch. They are checking if this was clean and looks like it is. What a catch, the extension of the dive and keeping is wrists above the turf was the key there
