David Miller, the Player of the Match in South Africa's win over Netherlands, explains his mindset as the pressure went up and up till he finished it off
"At the IPL, no one really complained about 270 plays 270. Now the bowlers are getting conditions a little bit more in their favour"
Netherlands tripped up South Africa in the previous two men's World Cups. They will be targeting a hat-trick, in conditions that might suit their style of batting better
