That's all from our coverage. Congratulations to Netherlands and chin up, Nepal! On behalf of K Vairavan and Ekanth, this is Sreshth Shah bidding goodbye.

2.51pm Nepal captain Paudel: "We were short in runs. We knew the wicket will be challenging in the morning. We applied ourselves but we couldn't capitalise on the starts, including me. Having said that, you can't expect your lower-middle order steps up everytime. (Short-ball tactic) We had a plan but we couldn't execute. We need to learn and go back home and see how we can improve in that area."

Netherlands captain Edwards: (Commanding win?) This was the first hurdle for us. We played really well. We'll look through this and move on to the West Indies game in a couple of days. (Van Beek and O'Dowd) Logan has been awesome for us through the tourmament. Our whole unit bowled well today. Maxi was... [inaudible.]. Our plan moving on will be similar to this. Our brand of cricket is working. We'll come up with some plans. If we bring our best, we'll do well on Monday."

2.46pm Reactions coming up. And here's Max O'Dowd - the Player of the Match: "Disappointed not scoring the hundred but for me I just want to contribute to match-winning knocks. 90 in a winning cause is enough. (Chasing small score....tentativeness can come?) If we look at last game, we didn't get in our space, so today it was about being positive and taking spin on. It was to take it to them. I didn't want to let the middle order to get in and the game get tricky. (Sweep shot) You've got to ask Scott Edwards, not me! I do sweeping lessons with him. For me, it is to get my head as close to the line. Scott taught me how to sweep for two months before this."

2.40pm A one-sided affair in the end. The pitch looked tricky in the morning, and then also through the middle-overs in the first-innings. But it posed no challenge for Max O'Dowd who motored along even when his opening partner Vikramjit Singh struggled early on.

Don't forget the bowling effort either. Van Beek took four, de Leede and Singh picked up a couple, and the spin pair of Dutt and Floyd were excellent.

For Nepal, a disappointing end to the dream of playing the 2023 ODI World Cup. Their campaign ends with a 1-3 scorecard. Batting let them down today, leaving very little for their bowlers to do in Harare.

Praveen: "Max with his own Sandstorm special. Good innings this."

The sightscreen cloth is absolutely in tatters at the ground due to the wind. Can be distracting for the batters. And now there's a sandstorm too. Darude fans, anyone?

Stat alert: This is Max's highest ODI score

ShahSafeer: "Come on, de Leede let O'Dowd score his well deserved century! "
