Netherlands 292/6 (50.0 ov)

Netherlands won the toss and elected to bat

Netherlands innings (50 overs maximum) R B 4s 6s SR

AN Kervezee c †Prior b Bresnan 16 25 2 0 64.00

6.2 138.9 kph, short, swished, top-edged, caught. Esay peasy and that's the end of Kervezee. A sparky innings, but picked the wrong stroke for a ball that didn't get up all that much. 36/1

W Barresi† st †Prior b Swann 29 25 6 0 116.00

11.4 86.7 kph, Has Swann struck in his first over? Drifts past the edge and Prior whips off the bails. Big appeal and it's gone to the third umpire. This is very close. On the line is out. And he's gone, but in slightly chaotic circumstances as the big screen appears to be broken so the decision is relayed to the on-field umpire 58/2

TLW Cooper c Anderson b Collingwood 47 73 3 0 64.38

28.1 95.2 kph, gone this time. KP's mistake doesn't cost much. Nothing exceptional really, fullish ball chipped straight to short midwicket. Not spectacular but England will be hugely relieved 136/3

RN ten Doeschate c Bopara b Broad 119 110 9 3 108.18

48.1 all over for ten Doeschate but it's been one of the great minnow innings. Just got under a short ball and spooned it down to Bopara on the square-leg boundary but a fabulous knock that has put Netherlands in with a real chance of an upset 274/6

B Zuiderent c Collingwood b Swann 1 10 0 0 10.00

32.5 85.3 kph, gone, Swann makes another breakthrough. Zuiderent never got going today, unlike 15 years ago, and chips a simple catch to midwicket as he tries to find the gap 149/4

TN de Grooth b Broad 28 31 3 0 90.32

42.5 135.1 kph, that's what the Powerplay can do. de Grooth gives himself plenty of room and tries to dispatch a yorker. It was too full, too straight and crashed into the base of middle 213/5

PW Borren* not out 35 24 4 0 145.83

Mudassar Bukhari not out 6 5 0 0 120.00

Massacre at Nagpur :D

Re: 22Feb 2011 England vs Netherlands

Incdentally Nagpur is also known as the city of Oranges... :D

 Hope Dutchies will like the colour and the place...

Re: 22Feb 2011 England vs Netherlands

England need 293 to beat Netherlands. Well, England have caught the Dutch disease again. Ryan ten Doeschate was magnificent, as inspirationally brilliant as England were dreadful. The fielding was shabby, the bowling all over the place but it was the pressure Netherlands put on them that backed them into that corner. Incredible stuff, coming into the tournament England would have though of themselves as the best fielding unit in the world but this display was the worst I've seen in years. Andrew Miller is as disgusted with England as he is impressed with Netherlands and his bulletin, which will be ready shortly, will be well worth a read. We'll be back in 30mins for the chase, and it should be a humdinger. Can't imagine what the discussion in the England dressing room sounds like.

Re: 22Feb 2011 England vs Netherlands

You spoke too soon.

Well done neds. lets see how you bowl

Re: 22Feb 2011 England vs Netherlands

Re: 22Feb 2011 England vs Netherlands

Re: 22Feb 2011 England vs Netherlands
