19.1

Bas De Leede to Shaheen Afridi

1 run, Good length on middle and leg, Shaheen pulls this to deep square leg for a run.

24 runs from the last over, and this game has slipped away from the Dutch. And with Kyle Klein out of the field, it will be Bas de Leede to bowl the last over. He has 4 runs to defend here.

18.6

Logan Van Beek to Faheem Ashraf

FOUR, FOUR! Edged and gone for four. 24 off this Logan van Beek over and this game has changed on its head. Good length around off, Faheem Ashraf swings at it, gets it edged and the ball races through the vacant slip cordon for a boundary behind the stumps.

Kyle Klein is suffering from cramps, and unforutnately he is walking off the field now with the help of the physio. Hopefully, it is nothing serious.

18.2

Logan Van Beek to Faheem Ashraf

2 runs, DROPPED! That's what pressure does to you. Low full toss, slower around off, Faheem Ashraf goes after it, miscues it off the cue end and hits this to the right of Max O'Dowd at long on. Max runs to his right and does the hard work but as he falls on the deck, the ball pops out and Faheem Ashraf gets a lifeline. A couple more taken.

End of over 19 ( 12 Runs )

Shadab Khan* 8(12)

Faheem Ashraf 0(0)

16.1

Logan Van Beek to Shadab Khan

out, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Two-in-two for the Netherlands and they have the upper hand for the first time in this contest. Good length, around the pads, Shadab Khan looks to flick this around fine leg but manages just a faint tickle that is taken behind the stumps by Scott Edwards. However, he has taken the review here, but does not look that confident. UltraEdge confirms the edge and he has to walk back now. Pakistan are 114/7 now, still needing 34 runs in 23 balls.

Is that out? Shadab Khan has been strangled down the leg side, but he has taken a review here. The UltraEdge comes up and shows a clear spike when the ball passes the bat. It is OUT.

We have a game on our hands now! Faheem Ashraf joins Shadab Khan out in the middle now. Also, Logan van Beek (2-0-21-0) comes back into the attack.

15.6

Kyle Klein to Mohammad Nawaz

out, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Nawaz throws in the towel with a mistimed stroke in anger and has to walk back. Kyle Klein continues from around the stumps, rolls his fingers on a short one into the batter. Mohammad Nawaz clears his front foot and looks to heave this out of the park but mishits this. The ball hangs over the keeper and Scott Edwards does the rest by pouching this cleanly. 34 needed off 24 balls.

15.5

Kyle Klein to Mohammad Nawaz

no run, Slower one, short and wide of off, Mohammad Nawaz leaves it expecting a wide but the umpire calls it a fair one.

15.4

Kyle Klein to Shadab Khan

1 run, Pitched up, around off, Shadab Khan hammers this to the right of the fielder at mid off. Max O'Dowd does well to put in a dive to his right and keep it down to one.

15.3

Kyle Klein to Mohammad Nawaz

1 run, On a length around middle and off, Mohammad Nawaz heaves it around the cow corner for a single.

15.2

1 run, Good length and around off, Mohammad Nawaz steers it away through point for one.

13.5

Paul Van Meekeren to Mohammad Nawaz

no run, Back of a length and outside off, Mohammad Nawaz slashes at it but misses.

Uh..oh! It looks like Paul van Meekeren is suffering from cramps here, and while he receives treatment, the umpires have called for Drinks. Pakistan were cruising to a victory but excellent bowling from Paul van Meekeren first and Roelof van der Merwe after him to remove 3 opponent batters in a span of 2 overs has brought the Dutch side back in the contest a bit. Pakistan are still in the pole position but with 42 more needed, a couple of more quick wickets might set this game to a close finish.

13.5

Paul Van Meekeren to Mohammad Nawaz

1^wd

13.3

Paul Van Meekeren to Shadab Khan

1 run, Tight single! Back of a length and on off, Shadab Khan pats it in front of short cover and calls his partner for the run. Mohammad Nawaz responds well and makes his ground. The fielder misses his shy at the batter's end, but even with a direct hit, Nawaz would have been home.

13.2

Paul Van Meekeren to Mohammad Nawaz

1 run, Pitched up and around off, Mohammad Nawaz drives it through covers for a run.

End of over 14 ( 2 Runs )

Roelof Van Der Merwe to Mohammad Nawaz

1 run, Flatter, full and on off, Mohammad Nawaz tucks it towards mid-wicket for one.

Pakistan are in a batting collapse of their own. From 98 for 2 to 100 for 5. Mohammad Nawaz walks out next for Pakistan.

12.4

Roelof Van Der Merwe to Babar Azam

out, OUT! CAUGHT! Roelof van der Merwe strikes now. Pakistan have lost 3 wickets on the last 10 balls. This is tossed up, full and around off. Babar Azam uses his feet to go big down the ground, but cuts across it. He ends up slicing it high in the air towards long off, where Kyle Klein runs to his left and takes a good catch.

A couple of quick wickets for the Netherlands and Shadab Khan replaces Usman in the middle.

11.3

Paul Van Meekeren to Usman Khan

out, OUT! DRAGGED ON! Could this be the over that gets the Dutch back in this game? Well, Paul van Meekeren has given them some hope here. He hits the length hard and around off, it takes off a bit after landing. Usman Khan tries to guide it away with an angled bat but it's too close to his body and he gets an inside edge back onto the stumps. Usman departs for a two-ball duck, and Pakistan slips from 98/2 to 98/4.

11.2

Paul Van Meekeren to Usman Khan

no run, Pitched up and on middle, Usman Khan knocks it back to the bowler.

Babar Azam 14(15)

11.1

Paul Van Meekeren to Sahibzada Farhan

out, OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Paul van Meekeren gets the set batter now. He bangs this into the pitch, on middle, gets some extra bounce. Sahibzada Farhan looks to swat it down the ground but gets into an awkward position. He fails to handle the bounce and gets a top edge towards long on. Roelof van der Merwe runs forward and takes a fantastic diving catch just above the ground. Farhan walks back for 47 off 31, missing out on his half-century. 50 runs needed in 53 balls.

3 wickets down for PAK. Out batsman is Sahibzada Farhan

Roelof Van Der Merwe to Sahibzada Farhan

7.4

Paul Van Meekeren to Sahibzada Farhan

no run, Slower one, around middle and off, Sahibzada Farhan flicks this a bit too hard, straight to mid on. Loud call of no from Farhan straightaway.

7.3

Paul Van Meekeren to Babar Azam

Sahibzada Farhan 24(12)

6.1

Roelof Van Der Merwe to Babar Azam

1 run, Flighted around middle and leg, Babar Azam flicks this through mid-wicket for one.

DRINKS! After the Powerplay, Netherlands were 50/2, so Pakistan are ahead in terms of runs. They do not have to take many risks, as there is no pressure of the asking rate, but looking at their approach, it looks like they want to chase this target as soon as possible, because NRR may play a big role later in the tournament. The Dutch need wickets as only that currency can get them back in this game. Scott Edwards has introduced Roelof van der Merwe to bowl after the break.

5.6

Logan Van Beek to Sahibzada Farhan

no run, Good length, going down the leg, Sahibzada Farhan misses out on a flick and gets rapped on the pads. 61/2 after Powerplay!

5.5

Logan Van Beek to Babar Azam

1 run, Missed run out chance! Back of a length around middle and leg, Babar Azam dabs this around covers and calls for one. Sahibzada Farhan runs straightaway but even that wouldn't have been good enough had the throw from Bas de Leede hit the stumps at the striker's end. That would have been a massive wicket for the Dutch.

5.4

Logan Van Beek to Babar Azam

no run, Back of a length around off, Babar Azam looks to cut this off his back foot but misses.

5.3

Logan Van Beek to Sahibzada Farhan

1 run, Excellent effort from the Dutch pacer to save three runs for his side. Short and on off, Sahibzada Farhan punches this crisply towards the left of mid on and a diving effort to his left from Kyle Klein saves three for the Netherlands.

5.2

Logan Van Beek to Sahibzada Farhan

SIX, SIX! That has been flicked up and over the fence for a biggie. Full and drifting down leg, Sahibzada Farhan leans inside the line and just whips at it with fast hands to flick this over the fence towards deep square leg for a biggie.

End of over 6 ( 0 Runs )

PAK 53/2

Sahibzada Farhan* 17(9)

Babar Azam 0(1)

4.5

Aryan Dutt to Salman Agha

out, OUT! CAUGHT! Aryan Dutt gets the revenge. He bowls this slower through the air this time, full and outside off. Salman Agha backs away again to go over covers, but has to reach out for it.

Pakistan lose their skipper, and are 53/2 now. 95 runs needed in 91 balls.

4.4

Aryan Dutt to Salman Agha

FOUR, FOUR! Pleasing to the eye! Aryan Dutt bowls this quicker and shorter, just around off. Salman Agha makes a bit of room, gets on top of it and smacks it past the diving cover-point fielder for another boundary. 50 UP FOR PAKISTAN!

End of over 5 ( 8 Runs )

PAK 42/1

Sahibzada Farhan* 10(6)

3.6

Kyle Klein to Salman Agha

no run, Pitched up and just outside off, Salman Agha tries to reach out for it but gets an inside edge onto his pads as the ball rolls beside the stumps.

3.5

Kyle Klein to Salman Agha

no run, On a length and on off, Salman Agha opens the face of his bat and steers it away towards point.

3.4

Kyle Klein to Salman Agha

FOUR, FOUR MORE! Nice shot! Kyle Klein bangs this into the pitch, but not short enough to trouble the batter. Salman Agha expects that length, hangs back on the back foot and pulls it over mid-wicket for another boundary.

3.3

Kyle Klein to Salman Agha

FOUR, FOUR! That is a beautiful shot! Good length and on middle and off. Salman Agha uses his feet, stays leg side of the ball and drives it crisply on the up through covers for a boundary.

3.2

Kyle Klein to Sahibzada Farhan

3 runs, Full again and on the pads, Sahibzada Farhan flicks it and finds the gap at mid-wicket. The fielder from deep square leg runs to his left to cut it out. The batters have enough time to take the third run.

Just one over for Logan van Beek (1-0-13-0) as Kyle Klein replaces him in the attack.

2.6

Aryan Dutt to Salman Agha

no run, Agha shimmies before the ball is released by Dutt and the bowler is clever enough to drag his length back and bowl at a quicker pace on off. Salman Agha ends up blocking this to covers.

2.5

Aryan Dutt to Salman Agha

no run, Pushed through around off, Salman Agha pokes at it and gets it edged to short third.

After his recent success at 3, Salman Agha walks out to bat next for Pakistan.

2.4

Aryan Dutt to Saim Ayub

out, OUT! TAKEN! Aryan Dutt gets his man and Netherlands get the big breakthrough here. This is floated, full and on middle and leg. Saim Ayub goes for the no-look shot across the line, but there was no need for that shot. He mistimes it off the outer half of the bat, straight up in the air. Roelof van der Merwe at mid on, backtracks a bit, settles under it and takes a good catch. Ayub walks back for 24 off 13 and Pakistan are 27/1, chasing 148 runs.

2.3

Change of bat for Sahibzada Farhan. While playing the previous stroke, Farhan might have just broken the bottom of his bat and he has now changed the willow.
