| 0.3 : 0.3: Paul Stirling to Ben Cooper, OUT! RUN OUT What just happened there? Stirling bowls a loopy ball, on the pads. Ben Cooper tucks it to short fine leg. Max O'Dowd takes off for a single but Ben Cooper is too late to respond. Simi Singh collects the ball and throws it at the bowler's end. Paul Stirling collects the ball and whips the bails off. But Paul Stirling dislodged one of the bails on his own before collecting the ball. The third umpire is called and luckily for Ireland, the secon |

| 3.5 : 3.5: Simi Singh to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Superb shot! Tossed up delivery, outside off. Max O'Dowd makes room for himself and lofts it over covers for a gorgeous boundary. |
| 4.3 : 4.3: Josh Little to Bas de Leede, FOUR! Here comes the release shot. Bas de Leede was bogged down and so he decides to advance down the track. On a length, on off and swatted back past the bowler for a boundary. |
| 4.4 : 4.4: Josh Little to Bas de Leede, OUT! Cleaned up! Bas de Leede will be kicking himself after that shot. Josh Little hurls across a full toss, angling in on leg stump.

Netherlands lose their second and Josh Little has his man. |
| 6.1 : 6.1: Curtis Campher to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Width on offer and Max O'Dowd doesn't miss out on it. Short and wide, cut away to the vacant point boundary. |
| 6.5 : 6.5: Curtis Campher to Colin Ackermann, FOUR! Another freebie from Curtis Campher. Length again, well outside off. Colin Ackermann cuts hard and beats third man to his right. Second boundary of the over. |

| 9.2 : 9.2: Curtis Campher to Colin Ackermann, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! This has been a brilliant bowling display from Ireland till now. Campher hurls in and bowls a back of a length, angling down on the leg side. Colin Ackermann hangs back and looks to pull but seems to miss it. They appeal for caught behind but the umpire signals it wide instead. Ireland take the review. UltraEdge shows a spike as the ball passes the gloves and this is a brilliant review from Ireland. Netherlands in a spot of bother |
| 9.3 : 9.3: Curtis Campher to Ryan ten Doeschate, OUT! LBW! A beauty of a delivery from Curtis Campher as the main man of Netherlands goes back for a golden duck. Campher steams and serves a full ball, very full angling on middle. Ryan ten Doeschate is too late to respond as he looks to flick but misses it out completely. He gets hit on the pads. An appeal and an easy decision for the umpire as it looked plumbed to the naked eye. No need for the review and Ryan ten Doeschate walks back. Curtis Camp |
| 9.4 : 9.4: Curtis Campher to Scott Edwards, OUT! A deja vu delivery from Curtis Campher to Scott Edwards and he is given LBW. HAT-TRICK FOR CURTIS CAMPHER. Campher serves another full ball, this one angling on middle and leg. Scott Edwards looks to flick but misses and gets hit on the pads. Curtis Campher appeals his heart out but the umpire is not interested. Campher convinces his captain to take the review and it shows three reds on Ball Tracker. Scott Edwards has been given LBW and Campher ha |
| 9.5 : 9.5: Curtis Campher to Roelof van der Merwe, OUT! DRAGGED ON! Curtis Campher, take a bow! Four in four for him. This time he delivers a length ball, outside off. Roelof van der Merwe reaches out for it and looks to drive but gets an inside edge. The ball crashes onto the stumps and wickets falling like a pack of cards for Netherlands. Curtis Campher becomes the third bowler in T20 history to bag four in four after Lasith Malinga and Rashid Khan. Absolute scenes out there in Abu Dhabi. |

| 16.3 : 16.3: Mark Adair to Max O'Dowd, OUT! CAUGHT! That is the last thing Netherlands would have wished for right now. Slower one and this is pushed fuller and well wider.

Mark Adair gets his first wicket of the day. |
| 17.3: Simi Singh to Pieter Seelaar, FOUR! Simi Singh tries to bowl a leg spinner delivery but drags it down on leg stump. Pieter Seelaar rocks back and picks his spot as he pulls it to the right of the fielder at deep square leg. A welcome boundary for Netherlands. |
| 19.4 : 19.4: Mark Adair to Pieter Seelaar, OUT! CAUGHT! Mark Adair has been brilliant out there with the ball. Pitched up, on off stump and Pieter Seelaar just had to go for the big shot.

| 19.5 : 19.5: Mark Adair to Logan van Beek, OUT! RUN OUT! Another one bites the dust for Netherlands. Full and straight, Logan van Beek clips it towards deep mid-wicket. The batters set off for the second very quickly but Josh Little is onto the ball in a flash at the fence. Little throws it on the bounce to Neil Rock, the keeper. Rock whips off the bails and van Beek is well short and has to depart. |
| 19.6 : 19.6: Mark Adair to Brandon Glover, OUT! TAKEN! Earlier, Curtis Campher got a hat-trick and now Ireland gets a team hat-trick. Mark Adair bowls a short-of-a-length ball, outside off. Brandon Glover goes down on his knee to heave it away but gets a top edge. The ball goes high up in the air towards mid off. Curtis Campher settles himself under it and gulps it down.

| 4.6 : 4.6: Fred Klaassen to Andy Balbirnie, OUT! TAKEN! Fred Klaassen gets his man this time. He bowls another short-of-a-length delivery, on middle. Andy Balbirnie looks to go for the third boundary over mid-wicket. But doesn't manage to do so and pulls it straight to mid-wicket where Roelof van der Merwe is present. He takes a good catch moving to his right and Ireland lose their skipper. |

| 9.6 : 9.6: Roelof van der Merwe to Gareth Delany, FOUR! Roelof van der Merwe looks frustrated as Delany picks up another boundary off his bowling. Just outside the off pole and Delany cuts it really fine. The ball races away into the third man fence. 15 off the over! |
| 10.2 : 10.2: Fred Klaassen to Gareth Delany, FOUR! Poor fielding in the deep and that should have been cut off. Just short of a length and Gareth Delany pulls it through mid-wicket. The fielders from long on and deep mid-wicket converge but neither cuts it off. It's a boundary. |
| 11.3 : 11.3: Brandon Glover to Gareth Delany, FOUR! It's just too easy at the moment for Gareth Delany and Ireland. Banged in short but not short enough to trouble the batter. Delany clobbers it over mid-wicket and picks up a boundary. |
| 11.4 : 11.4: Brandon Glover to Gareth Delany, FOUR! Exquisite timing from Gareth Delany. Good-length ball, around off and this is caressed through the cover region for yet another boundary. The 50-run stand also comes up and just 21 required now off 50 balls. |
| 12.4: Pieter Seelaar to Gareth Delany, SIX! KABOOM! Tossed up delivery, on off. Gareth Delany goes down on one knee and sends the ball sailing over long on for a maximum. 86 metres strike that one! |
| 12.5 : 12.5: Pieter Seelaar to Gareth Delany, OUT! TIMBER! A consolation wicket for Pieter Seelaar and Netherlands. Pieter Seelaar bowls it flatter and quicker, on off. Gareth Delany advances down the track and looks for another biggie but misses the ball completely.
