... THE RUN CHASE ...

Right then, Australia have been powered to a grand total thanks to centuries from Glenn MaxwellÂ and David Warner. They would want to bowl theÂ NetherlandsÂ out cheaply toÂ boost their net run rate significantly. Join us in a bit to see how the Dutch chase unfolds.

The man of the moment, Glenn Maxwell is in for a chat. He says that it feels great to bat like that and this brings a lot of confidence in him for the rest of the tournament. He adds that the wicket is really good to bat on under the lights and the ball comes on to the bat more. He finally says that it is a par score for any team to chase and they will look to take wickets with the new ball and restrict the Netherlands to the minimum for a better run rate.

As far as the Netherlands are concerned, they did not do much wrong except that they had to bowl to a certain Glenn Maxwell. Scott EdwardsÂ opted to start with spin from both ends and that move did not seem to work out. It was pace that did the trick for the Dutch as Logan van BeekÂ struck in his first over. They will rue the missed run out opportunity by Max O'DowdÂ which gave life to David WarnerÂ early on in his innings.Â In the middle phase, the bowlers did a decent job of keeping the runs i

Wow, that was a Big Show, quite literally! Glenn Maxwell has done what he does best and by doing so, he has helped Australia get to a humongous total.Â After Pat CumminsÂ opted to bat first, David Warner got himself going with a flurry of boundaries, but his opening partner, Mitchell Marsh, perished early. Coming in at number 3, Steven Smith was quick to get off the blocks, and both batters did not miss out on punishing loose deliveries. Smith got out on 71, but Warner, having gotten a life on 3

Logan van Beek to Pat Cummins, ! Short ball at the skipper Pat CumminsÂ who ready the length early and pulls the ball between deep mid-wicket and long on for a boundary to end the innings for Australia.
