| 2.4 : 2.4: Paul van Meekeren to KL Rahul, OUT! LBW! Paul van Meekeren strikes! Full and sliding onto the pads, KL Rahul goes for the flick and gets rapped on the pads.

| 3.3 : 3.3: Bas de Leede to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! Full and outside off, Rohit Sharma waits for the ball and cuts this one fiercely past backward point. Just enough width for a batter of the class of Rohit Sharma and he doesn't miss out. Rohit is looking in great nick today. |
| 7.4 : 7.4: Logan van Beek to Rohit Sharma, SIX! SMASHED! Back of a length and outside off, Rohit Sharma stands tall and thumps this one over deep mid-wicket for an 88-metre six.

| 11.6 : 11.6: Fred Klaassen to Rohit Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! A slower fullish delivery on off. Rohit Sharma looks to deposit this one over cow corner. However, he does not get enough power behind this shot and ends up hitting it straight to deep mid-wicket where Colin Ackermann takes a fine catch. A timely wicket for Netherlands. Rohit Sharma was threatening to take the game away from them. |
| 12.1 : 12.1: Tim Pringle to Virat Kohli, FOUR! Fuller one and on middle, Virat Kohli lofts it straight down the ground for a one-bounce boundary! |
| 13.2 : 13.2: Paul van Meekeren to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR! Good length and on middle, Suryakumar Yadav uses his wrist and flicks it past deep square leg for a boundary! |

| 16.2 : 16.2: Fred Klaassen to Virat Kohli, FOUR! This time a better shot! On a length, on off. Kohli plays the same shot that he played on the last ball but times it better and the ball runs away towards the long off fence. |
| 16.3 : 16.3: Fred Klaassen to Virat Kohli, SIX! Now, this is a fantastic shot! A fullish delivery on off. Kohli makes room and plays a lofted drive again, this time over covers for a maximum. |
| 17.5 : 17.5: Logan van Beek to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR! SKY finds another boundary! A fullish delivery on leg. Yadav backs away and hits it slightly off the inside half of his blade straight down the ground for a boundary. |

| 1.4 : 1.4: Arshdeep Singh to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Nicely timed again! On a length and around off. Max O'Dowd just caresses it through cover-point again for a boundary. Nice placement as well. |
| 2.2 : 2.2: Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Vikramjit Singh, OUT! BOWLED! Bhuvneshwar Kumar draws first blood! Back of a length on off, Vikramjit Singh tries to pull it but fails to make any contact and the ball hits the timber. Singh's reaction gave the impression that it bounced a bit low than he anticipated. To be honest, Vikramjit Singh never looked comfortable in the middle and credit should be given to Bhuvneshwar Kumar here for the way he set Singh up. |
| 3.4 : 3.4: Mohammad Shami to Max O'Dowd, FOUR! Full and drifting onto the pads, Max O'Dowd flicks this one uppishly towards vacant square leg region for his third boundary. Max O'Dowd is looking in great touch. |

| 9.2: Axar Patel to Bas de Leede, OUT! CAUGHT! Excellent bowling from Axar Patel! He gets his second wicket and Netherlands lose another big wicket.

Hardik Pandya there takes a sharp catch and Netherlands are currently going nowhere in this chase. |
| 12.1 : 12.1: Ravichandran Ashwin to Colin Ackermann, OUT! CAUGHT! Ravichandran Ashwin gets his first wicket and Netherlands lose their fourth. Still 118 runs needed from just 47 balls and the Dutch hopes sink further. Ashwin bowls it fuller on off. Colin Ackermann tries to launch it over deep mid-wicket.

| 16.4 : 16.4: Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Shariz Ahmad, FOUR! Outside off this time, Shariz Ahmad slaps it past point for a boundary! Confident shot from the youngster! |
| 17.5 : 17.5: Arshdeep Singh to Logan van Beek, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Shorter one on middle, Logan van Beek was not expecting it and looks to pull it. He gets the slightest of the edge and Dinesh Karthik takes an easy catch behind the wickets. Netherlands are eight down now as Arshdeep Singh gets his first wicket. This bouncer shows the class and skills of this young man, brilliant execution. |
| 17.6 : 17.6: Arshdeep Singh to Fred Klaassen, OUT! LBW! Right on the money again. A yorker from 'round the wicket on middle and leg, Fred Klaassen looks to flick it but gets hit on his pads. A loud appeal follows for the LBW but the finger stays down.
