- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.4 Chipped straight to mid-off and that's a dolly for Shakib! It's full on leg and he is looking to flick it away. Turns the face of the bat too early and ends up getting a leading edge 3/12.2 That's both openers gone! O'Dowd goes fishing after a length ball going across him. He plays it well away from his body and gets a thick edge. It's to Tanzid's left at slip and he grabs on with a little leap 4/213.4 Barresi's cameo comes to an end! This was fuller from Mustafizur, but he rolls his fingers over it to take the pace off. Barresi takes the bat and looks to launch this over long-off. He's far to early on the stroke and all he can do is slice it straight up in the air. Shakib makes the early call, settles under it, and completes the catch near the centre of the pitch 63/314.4 Oh dear, what a soft dismissal! This was slightly quicker, 94kph, and fuller as Ackermann looks to sweep it. The extra bounce doesn't let him get over it either and so he only manages a gentle top edge that loops kindly to short fine leg. Looks like the Dutch will be in need of yet another lower order rescue job today 63/444.3 And the Fizz gets the big breakthrough! Cunning with his variations, he goes for the wide yorker again, and that does the trick. Edwards gets low and tries to slap it away but can only spoon a simple catch to backward point, where Mehidy makes no mistake this time! 185/626.6 That's a beauty! And Shakib thinks there was a nick! And the batter is walking! Back of a length delivery outside off and de Leede wants to cut but it goes through to the keeper. Replay confirms the thin edge. Taskin with another breakthrough 107/545.1 Huge appeal from Mahedi Hasan and the finger goes up! The batter's reviewed it, though. Tossed up full on middle and off and Engelbrecht misses his reverse sweep. If he didn't get any bat or glove on that, this looks plumb! Yep, no bat involved. And that's shown to be crashing into middle and leg stumps! Netherlands lose two in quick succession once again! 185/747.1 Run-out chance! Shariz whips the ball through midwicket and they want two. But some sharp fielding means he is under pressure returning for the second. And even though he put in the dive at the striker's end, Mushfiqur hit the stumps with ball in hand just as the bat was on the crease! Two lbw appeals survived, but a run-out gets Shariz Ahmad! Great work from Mahmudullah, running across quickly from deep square leg to collect that and then put in a good throw 194/848.5 Shoriful strikes back! It's full outside off, he reaches out and swings his bat and gets a top edge to short third. Mehidy holds on again 212/949.6 Paul van Meekeren goes for a reverse sweep and misses and this full delivery hits van Meekeren on his front boot. The batter reviews it and it only confirms that that was a plumb lbw call. So, that's that, with Netherlands finishing on 229! 229/10Extras12 (b 4, lb 1, w 7)TOTAL229 all out (50 Overs, RR: 4.58)Fall of wickets: 1-3 (Vikramjit Singh, 1.4 ov), 2-4 (Max O'Dowd, 2.2 ov), 3-63 (Wesley Barresi, 13.4 ov), 4-63 (Colin Ackermann, 14.4 ov), 5-107 (Bas de Leede, 26.6 ov), 6-185 (Scott Edwards, 44.3 ov), 7-185 (Sybrand Engelbrecht, 45.1 ov), 8-194 (Shariz Ahmad, 47.1 ov), 9-212 (Aryan Dutt, 48.5 ov), 10-229 (Paul van Meekeren, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 And just as I type that out, Dutt has struck! Liton looks to reverse this good length ball, but it pops up off the back of the glove and then the top of the pad, to give Edwards behind the stumps an easy take 19/15.2 Both the openers are gone! There's a patch of grass in the middle of the pitch, and van Beek is exploiting it beautifully. He digs this in short and it rushes Tanzid, who looks to pull it from just outside off but can only get a feather through to the keeper 19/216.5 Nice! That's definitely what the Netherlands will be thinking right now! It's a full length ball outside off that's seaming away and Mehidy prods at it and gets the edge. Edwards makes no mistake and Netherlands can suddenly smell victory! 69/511.5 Whatever caused the delay, it's worked for Paul van Meekeren! And it's a brilliant catch at second slip as Shanto chases a full delivery outside off. Gets a thick edge that flies to van Beek's left, but he falls to his side while taking the catch 45/315.6 Nicked behind! The extra bounce does the trick again. Shakib wants to cut this back of length delivery on middle and off, but it's probably not wide enough for the shot. He plays it late and ends up giving Scott Edwards some catching practice. Bangladesh in trouble! 63/417.4 He's castled Mushfiqur! What a delivery too! The length ball jags back in from outside off to go through the gap as Mushfiqur plays the wrong line, and hits the top of off! Could have been a slight inside edge, but it didn't matter, Mushfiqur was completely done in by that jaffa 70/632.3 Brilliantly taken at midwicket! The bowling change brings the wicket. It's short of good length around off and Mahmudullah goes for the pull. He hits it to Aryan Dutt's left and he takes a good reverse-cupped catch. Netherlands continue to be excellent in the fielding department. Is that the game? 113/829.4 Is this the moment!? Direct hit has done the trick I think! Yes, Mahedi is well short! Fantastic from Bas de Leede. Mahedi played this with soft hands, and nearly edged it Edwards. The bowl ended up dribbling past the keeper to de Leede at short third, who picked it up and arrowed in a throw at the non-striker's end. Mahedi was about a foot short! 108/742.2 Netherlands have won it! The short ball ploy works, with Taskin this time getting bat on ball with his pull. But Bas de Leede runs to his left from deep midwicket and pouches it! Paul van Meekeren takes a bow, as he should! He picks up his career-best figures as Netherlands register a memorable 87-run win! 142/1041.6 This time he knocks him over! It's on a length and it turns, like a few balls before, but this time, it crashes into off stump! 142/9Extras6 (w 6)TOTAL142 all out (42.2 Overs, RR: 3.35)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Litton Das, 4.2 ov), 2-19 (Tanzid Hasan, 5.2 ov), 3-45 (Najmul Hossain Shanto, 11.5 ov), 4-63 (Shakib Al Hasan, 15.6 ov), 5-69 (Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 16.5 ov), 6-70 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 17.4 ov), 7-108 (Mahedi Hasan, 29.4 ov), 8-113 (Mahmudullah, 32.3 ov), 9-142 (Mustafizur Rahman, 41.6 ov), 10-142 (Taskin Ahmed, 42.2 ov)
