    3.5 sliced high up and both O'Dowd (mid on) and Ackermann (cover) are running for it. Bowler too, in fact, but eventually Ackermann keeps his cool and collects this catch. Short ball outside off. Marsh tried to drag a pull, but miscued the shot high up. The ball was closest to the bowler for a catch but he had a lot of turning around to do. Ackermann was the better choice, and he got under it before the others could 28/1
    39.1 century and gone for David Warner. Length ball angling into middle. Warner moves off side, gets low, and tries to play a hard paddle towards fine leg. It would've been six on most days but not today because Aryan Dutt moves to his left from fine leg and takes a flat catch. Warner goes back with some affection from the crowd but Netherlands now have the advantage of two fresh batters 267/5
    23.3 and Dutt reaps an immediate reward! Back of a length outside off, with the only difference being that this is angled away. Smith cannot keep his cut down and hits it uppishly towards van der Merwe at backward point. Goes with the reverse-cup again, despite the ball being near his shins but on this occasion, he has his hands under the ball at all times and maintains control of it too. Smith has to go, and Netherlands have the opening they were after! 160/2
    36.1 stops the juggernaut! Driven straight to mid on. His front leg was just not close enough to the ball for him to get the lift over mid-on that he was looking for. Full ball just outside off and Dutt had to dive to his right for that 244/3
    38.6 six? No, taken five feet in. Length ball angling into his chest. Inglis tries to loft it over deep midwicket but it comes off the edge of the bat. Reverse-cup technique employed by the fielder in the deep. 266/4
    49.3 out, but not before producing one of the most entertaining ODI centuries of all time! Maxwell tries to go over long off but this time the ball came off the bat's outside half. Engelbrecht takes a tough catch near the boundary and Maxwell is undone by the wide line. However the TV umpire wants to check if the catch is clean. Ja, all good. 393/7
    42.2 good length ball around off. Flicked to midwicket where nobody's there. They try to take a second and it looks on... but Engelbrecht runs in from long on, picks up the ball with one hand, and then throws down the stumps at the bowler's end! Green isn't even waiting... he's walking as the umpires go upstairs! Oh the Dutch have fielded superbly today. 290/6

    49.4 is there another storyline brewing? A possible hat-trick? Logan has two in two! Rolls his fingers over this ball. Full on middle. Starc tried to cream a golf-swing over cow corner but he's miscued it. Ackermann calls and takes it running in 393/8

    5.5 oh dear, Singh has just run himself out! And it is that man Maxwell again with a moment of magic! Back of a length on off. Singh bunts it to mid off and sets off for the single. Always struggling to get there and his woes are compounded by the fact that Maxwell swoops in and hits the stumps at the bowler's end. Singh barely got himself into the frame, which shows how badly judged the run was. Netherlands two down, and in plenty of bother now! 37/2
    4.5 third time lucky for Starc! Two near-misses in the previous two balls, and now Starc has his man. This is angled across, on a hard length outside off. O'Dowd, without any foot movement, jabs at it. Gets a thickish inside edge that smashes into the stumps and Australia have their first powerplay wicket since the India game! 28/1
    9.2 huge appeal, and given! Length delivery that pitches on off stump and jags back sharply. Ackermann is caught on the crease and also plays down the wrong line. Gets pinned on the back leg and the umpire has no hesitation in raising his finger. Ackermann has a little chat with his partner but decides against the review. Could he have had another look? Might have been high. We will soon get confirmation about whether Ackermann was right to not review, but for now, the Dutch are three down, and Australia are purring! 47/3
    13.2 excellent by Warner! Another shortish delivery just outside off and Engelbrecht's eyes light up. He laces his pull but the only problem is that he hits it too flat and in the general direction of Warner on the deep square leg fence. Warner times his jump to perfection and holds onto the chance. Finishes it off with a little tiptoe around the boundary, and half of the Dutch side is now back in the shed! 62/5
    10.5 that looks very adjacent! Similar ball to the one that got Ackermann, although this might have been a shade fuller. Pitches on off, nips back in and forces the batter to play down the wrong line. de Leede gets pinged on the front pad, and the umpire gives it out. de Leede, though, has reviewed this. Height could be an issue. Will also be interesting to see if this did too much. The height is fine, and Ball Tracking reckons it would have kissed the top of leg stump. Umpire's Call, and de Leede has to walk back! 53/4

    17.5 gloved behind and that's a soft way to get out. Marsh with a leg stump line, and Teja tried to flick this leg side. Bit of glove, inertia almost gets the better of the keeper, but he manages to gain composure and take the catch. 84/6
    18.3 full ball. Bit of turn away but some extra bounce. van Beek misses the cut and Inglis grabs comfortably. Toe of the bat 86/7
    18.4 he's been googled! Full ball outside off but turning in, and zipping in sharply after pitching. Roelof got forward to fend but Zampa proved to be too hot. Went past the bat's inside edge and clipped the front leg. Roelof reviews but the TV umpire confirms that's crashing into middle stump. Zampa on a hat-trick 86/8
    20.5 running through the tail! Full but not very. Dutt goes back foot to play it. Ball zips in, and hits him in front of middle stump with the No. 10 attempting a defensive shot. Zampa's a happy camper 90/9
    20.6 is he stumped around his legs? Full ball outside leg. van Meekeren tries the sweep but misses. Ball goes perilously close past leg stump, and Zampa is groaning that it didn't clip. But maybe Inglis has whipped the bails off with the No. 11 out of his crease. Oh he hasn't stumped the batter at all. The ball popped out of Inglis' gloves but ricocheted onto the stumps. Bizarre dismissal to end the game as Zampa finishes with 4-8. A hat-trick of four-fors for Zampa as Australia complete the largest victory in WC history - 309 runs 90/10
