Commentary

Right then, an easy win for Netherlands in a rain-affected game has kept them in contention and they will now have their eyes on the blockbuster clash that will take place on Tuesday 4th July between Zimbabwe and Scotland at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. They will be hoping for a Scottish victory before they face them in their final game of the Super Sixes where they will get an opportunity to topple them There is also a clash to determine who will take seventh place as Ireland face off against Nepal at the Takashinga Sports Club in Harare. Both games will begin at 12.30 pm IST (7 am GMT) but as you know our build-up will begin well in advance. Do join us for it and until then, goodbye and cheers!

Scott Edwards, the captain of Netherlands admits that the plan was to get a win and get the points on the board so they got the job done. Mentions that Vikramjit Singh set the tone and the way Wesley Barresi, Bas de Leede, and Saqib Zulfiqar batted towards the end was wonderful. Adds that he is very happy with the fact that Vikramjit got his first ton. Claims that they did look at the run rate and they were doing well but Oman got a partnership going through the middle so he does not know what the situation is currently. Ends by saying that they will watch the other games but can't do much about it and will prepare for their match.

Aqib Ilyas, the skipper of Oman says that he would like to give credit to the Netherlands for the victory. Adds that the playing conditions were brilliant and they couldn't capitalize on the overcast conditions while bowling. Also adds that Ayaan Khan was brilliant with the bat and he batted superbly but lacked support from the other end.

Vikramjit Singh is the Player of the Match for his maiden century in ODI cricket. He says he has waited a long time for this and his maiden ton feels amazing. Adds that they took time during the first 15 overs and then batted the way they normally do. Adds that he wanted to play for as long as he could and it worked out well for the side. Mentions that they would be looking to win against Scotland and hope to qualify for the ICC Cricket World Cup in India later this year.

Time for the presentations...

Aryan Dutt bowled a remarkable spell for Netherlands conceding just 31 runs in his 10 overs and claiming three wickets. The other two spinners proved to be a bit too expensive with Bas de Leede and Logan van Beek also having off days. Ryan Klein was impressive with match figures of 9-1-34-2 but it was the batters who will take most of the credit for this win. Vikramjit Singh scored his maiden century to set up the inning and Wesley Barresi missed out on his hundred but provided the impetus required as he accumulated 97 runs in just 65 deliveries. Useful contributions from Max O'Dowd, Bas de Leede, and Saqib Zulfiqar helped them post a huge total on the board. The Oman bowlers lacked discipline as they conceded 23 runs in wides and were quite expensive. Bilal Khan had three wickets under his belt and Mohammad Nadeem chipped in with two as well but they had left their batters with an uphill task.

Oman got off to a decent start with a bat but a misunderstanding between the openers resulted in the wicket of Jatinder Singh. Aqib Ilyas has been the man in form for Oman in this competition but could not get going this time around. Kashyap Prajapati, who notched up a century in his previous outing, got off to a decent start but could not capitalize. Mohammad Nadeem seemed to struggle at the wicket but a 112-run partnership in 107 deliveries between Ayaan Khan and Shoaib Khan gave Oman a glimmer of hope. Shoaib perished four runs short of his half-century but Ayaan went on to notch up his maiden century. Despite his best efforts, he did not get enough support from the other end and they were well behind the game as the required run rate kept building. Eventually, the match was called off prematurely but there was no chance the target could be achieved even if the game had been played out.

A comfortable win for Netherlands has helped them keep their qualification hopes alive! They have put up a professional display here to register a 74-run win by DLS Method over Oman who are still hunting for their first win in the Super Sixes. It was the Dutch batting that set the tone for this game in the first inning and the bowlers stuck to their jobs to help their team get over the finish line with ease. Oman did put up a decent fight with Ayaan Khan fighting a lone battle as he got Oman’s eleventh century in ODI cricket and the third fastest of the lot.

The umpires are worried about the light and have decided to call the players off which means that there will be no more action in this game as there are no floodlights at this ground. The players shake hands and the revised total at this stage would have been 320. This means Oman are well short of the score and Netherlands seal a crucial win in the context of their qualification chances.

Commentary

The match officials are out in the middle followed by the Netherlands players who take their respective positions in the field. Kashyap Prajapati and Jatinder Singh are the two openers for Oman while Logan van Beek will bowl the first over. Let's go...

...RUN CHASE...

The conditions are still overcast and there should be some movement for the Dutch bowlers here. The Oman openers will need to be a bit careful here.

The Oman bowlers bowled their hearts out but they were not backed well in the field and have given away at the least 30-35 runs in the field. Mohammad Nadeem was good with the ball as he picked up a couple but was under-bowled. Bilal Khan picked up 3 wickets and Ayaan Khan and Fayyaz Butt were amongst the wicket-takers as they took a wicket each too. They have left a massive task for their batters to accomplish though and Netherlands have a decent bowling unit to defend this target. Can Oman chase it down to spoil the party mood in Amsterdam or will the Dutch inflict a heavy defeat on the Associate nation and jump above Scotland in the points table? Do join use shortly for the run chase.

Vikramjit Singh is up for a chat. He says that it feels good to get his first century as it took 20 innings to get but it is finally here. Adds that he and Max O'Dowd complement each other well as they communicate well and are having fun. Mentions that he was just trying to use his feet against the pacers and it worked out well as he was able to find the boundaries.

The Dutch innings started off a bit cautiously as both openers were watchful to start off but a rain delay awakened something and Vikramjit Singh came out with a positive mindset to take the attack to the opposition. The openers put up a 117-run partnership to put them in a commanding position and lay a perfect platform for their hitters to take control of the game towards the end. Vikramjit was sensational with his shot selection and strokeplay as he smashed the Oman bowlers all over the park for his maiden ODI century as he scored 110 before perishing. Wesley Barresi played a sensational knock as he smoked the Oman bowlers all over the park with a strike of over 145 scoring 97 but missed out on his century. Handy cameos from Max O'Dowd, Bas de Leede, and Saqib Zulfiqar helped them post a mammoth total.

In a must-win game, the Dutch side has put on an outstanding batting effort having scored 362 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in their quota of 48 overs! They had contributions through the batting line-up and a special note has to be taken about the way they accumulated the runs with some good running between the wicket in the middle of all the boundaries they accumulated. Oman had a bowling performance to forget and will need to do something special here to get over the finish line.

47.6W

OUT! CAUGHT! A wicket on the last delivery of the inning and Bilal Khan has his third of this game! This is bowled on a good length and outside the off stump. Teja Nidamanuru looks to go inside out over covers but does not time this well enough. Holes out to the deep cover fielder where Kashyap Prajapati is placed to take an easy catch. Netherlands' inning comes to an end on 362 runs and this has been a dominating batting display by the lads in orange.

47.52

Goes full this time and at the stumps. Teja Nidamanuru lofts this back over the bowler's head and they run quickly to pick up a brace.

47.51wd

WIDE! Bangs this into the pitch but way down leg side! Teja Nidamanuru leaves this alone and the umpire calls wide.

47.41lb

In line with the stumps and bowled back of a length. Logan van Beek looks to whip this away but misses and gets hit on the midriff. They steal a leg bye though.

46.6W

OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust in the quest to accelerate! This is bowled full and outside the off pole. Saqib Zulfiqar looks to go over the infield but miscues this towards the mid off fielder. Kaleemullah has the easiest of catches to take and Netherlands lose their sixth wicket. They will feel they have enough on the board though and Oman will want to keep the scoring to the minimum in the last over.

46.54

FOUR! Misses his yorker and Saqib Zulfiqar finds the gap to perfection! This is a full toss onto the body. Saqib Zulfiqar whips this towards deep backward square leg for four runs. 350 up for Netherlands now and they have their second-highest total in ODI cricket.

46.40

Wide outside the off stump this time and slightly short. Saqib Zulfiqar flays his bat but is unable to connect.

46.32

Angles this into the pads on a good length. Saqib Zulfiqar flicks this towards deep square leg and they run well once again to take a couple of runs.

46.31wd

WIDE! Sprays this down leg on a shortish length. Saqib Zulfiqar looks to pull this as well but the ball is far and the umpire indicates wide.

46.26

SIX! Saqib Zulfiqar gets a hold of this one and he is playing quite a cameo here! This is bowled back of a length and into the batter. Saqib Zulfiqar whips this with ease over deep square leg for six runs.

46.10

Fayyaz Butt bangs this in short and going down leg. Saqib Zulfiqar looks to pull but misses as the ball goes through to the keeper.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Wesley Barresi misses out on his hundred here! Bilal Khan gets his second wicket and Oman have managed to dismiss half of the Netherlands side. This is bowled short and outside the off stump. Wesley Barresi back away again and looks to cut this late but gets an outside edge through to the keeper. Suraj Kumar makes no mistake holding onto this one and Wesley Barresi will be really disappointed here.

45.54

FOUR! Wesley Barresi is close to a wonderful century here! This is bowled back of a length and outside off. Wesley Barresi makes room and swats this towards deep cover for four more runs.

45.44

FOUR! Wesley Barresi is into the 90s as another ordinary piece of fielding results in a boundary! This is full and Bilal Khan follows this batter as he looks to make room.

45.32

Goes full and outside the off stump. Wesley Barresi knocks this towards long on for a couple of runs.

On a good length this time but strays onto the pads. Saqib Zulfiqar misses his flick and the ball goes off the pads towards the keeper. They take a leg bye.

45.10

DRINKS! The players will take some refreshments. Oman are going at a good rate but the only concern is the wickets that they have lost.

We have seen stranger things happen in cricket though so do not go anywhere.

The ball is lofted wide of long on and Ryan Klein does well running to his right to take a good catch. Oman lose their third wicket and they need a good partnership here to be able to take this game deep.

Commentary

The match officials are out in the middle followed by the Netherlands players who take their respective positions in the field. Kashyap Prajapati and Jatinder Singh are the two openers for Oman while Logan van Beek will bowl the first over. Let's go...

...RUN CHASE...

The conditions are still overcast and there should be some movement for the Dutch bowlers here. The Oman openers will need to be a bit careful here.

The Oman bowlers bowled their hearts out but they were not backed well in the field and have given away at the least 30-35 runs in the field. Mohammad Nadeem was good with the ball as he picked up a couple but was under-bowled. Bilal Khan picked up 3 wickets and Ayaan Khan and Fayyaz Butt were amongst the wicket-takers as they took a wicket each too. They have left a massive task for their batters to accomplish though and Netherlands have a decent bowling unit to defend this target. Can Oman chase it down to spoil the party mood in Amsterdam or will the Dutch inflict a heavy defeat on the Associate nation and jump above Scotland in the points table? Do join use shortly for the run chase.

Vikramjit Singh is up for a chat. He says that it feels good to get his first century as it took 20 innings to get but it is finally here. Adds that he and Max O'Dowd complement each other well as they communicate well and are having fun. Mentions that he was just trying to use his feet against the pacers and it worked out well as he was able to find the boundaries.

The Dutch innings started off a bit cautiously as both openers were watchful to start off but a rain delay awakened something and Vikramjit Singh came out with a positive mindset to take the attack to the opposition. The openers put up a 117-run partnership to put them in a commanding position and lay a perfect platform for their hitters to take control of the game towards the end. Vikramjit was sensational with his shot selection and strokeplay as he smashed the Oman bowlers all over the park for his maiden ODI century as he scored 110 before perishing. Wesley Barresi played a sensational knock as he smoked the Oman bowlers all over the park with a strike of over 145 scoring 97 but missed out on his century. Handy cameos from Max O'Dowd, Bas de Leede, and Saqib Zulfiqar helped them post a mammoth total.

In a must-win game, the Dutch side has put on an outstanding batting effort having scored 362 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in their quota of 48 overs! They had contributions through the batting line-up and a special note has to be taken about the way they accumulated the runs with some good running between the wicket in the middle of all the boundaries they accumulated. Oman had a bowling performance to forget and will need to do something special here to get over the finish line.

Saqib Zulfiqar looks to go over the infield but miscues this towards the mid off fielder. Kaleemullah has the easiest of catches to take and Netherlands lose their sixth wicket.

OUT! CAUGHT! An important wicket for Oman as Bas de Leede has the ability to take this game far away from their reach! Bilal Khan returns to the attack and takes his first wicket of the game and Oman will be hoping that this can put a dent in the scoring rate. This is bowled full and outside the off stump.

Oman appealed for a run out as they felt that the batter has obstructed the field but the T.V. replay showed the batter was running in a straight line and was not blocking the line of throw.

40.52

Bouncer well directed around the badge, Bas de Leede pulls it down to short fine leg and takes a couple.

40.42

Slower one on a good length, Bas de Leede drills this to deep mid-wicket and takes a couple.

We are set to resume now. The umpires are out in the middle with the two openers in Max O'Dowd and Vikramjit Singh as Kaleemullah is all set to complete the 4th over.

UPDATE - 1.35 pm IST (8.05 am GMT) - We have playing revised conditions announced as it shall now be a 48-overs-per-side match. Powerplay 1 will be in the allotted 10 overs but thereafter one over will be deducted from the other two Powerplays. We shall have Powerplay 2 for 29 overs and the remaining 9 will be Powerplay 3. Three bowlers can bowl a maximum of 10 overs and the target will be revised using the DLS Method after the first inning.

UPDATE - 1.30 pm IST (8 am GMT) - We have some good news folks! The covers are coming off and the ground staff have begun the process of drying out the field. The umpires are in conversation with both the umpires near the dressing room. There seem to be loads of activity going around as the umpires now walk to the office of the match referee. We should have some action really soon as the two opening batters for Netherlands are doing their warm-ups on the balcony. The game is scheduled to resume at 1:40 pm IST (8.10 am GMT) so do join us then.

UPDATE - 1.07 pm IST (7.37 am GMT) - The umpires are out with their umbrellas and there is still some rain around. The Super Sopper is doing its job clearing water from the outfield as there are no covers placed there. Just the center patch is covered and we may take some time even after the rain stops. We will start losing overs soon and there will be an inspection at 1.30 pm IST (8 am GMT). Stay tuned...

UPDATE - 12.48 pm IST (7.18 am GMT) - Bad news folks! We have a stoppage here as the rain gods have arrived. The ground staff is onto the field with the covers as the players and the umpire stride out of the ground. It seems to be a slight drizzle and there does not seem to be much urgency around. Should be a passing shower and we should have some action soon. Stay tuned for further updates.

We are done with the pre-match formalities and the game is about to begin. Max O'Dowd and Vikramjit Singh are the two openers for Netherlands, while Bilal Khan will open the attack for Oman. Let's play...

The match officials are out in the middle followed by the players from both sides. It is time for the National Anthems of both sides.

Scott Edwards, the skipper of Netherlands says he would have bowled first as well and they would want to go forward and set up a good total. Adds that the confidence is high amongst the squad and they would want to win here. Informs that they have one change.

Aqib Ilyas, the captain of Oman says they would want to bowl first as the conditions will favor the bowling side up front. Adds that being the skipper of the team is a huge honor for him personally. Informs that there are 2 changes in the side.

Oman (Playing XI) - Kashyap Prajapati, Jatinder Singh, Aqib Ilyas (C), Shoaib Khan, Mohammad Nadeem, Ayaan Khan, Sandeep Goud, Suraj Kumar (WK), Fayyaz Butt, Kaleemullah, Bilal Khan.

Netherlands (Playing XI) - Max O'Dowd, Vikramjit Singh, Wesley Barresi, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Scott Edwards (C), Saqib Zulfiqar, Logan van Beek, Ryan Klein, Aryan Dutt, Clayton Floyd.

TOSS - The captains are out in the middle. The coin is flipped into the air and lands in favor of Oman. They have elected to BOWL first.

Oman on the contrary has had an upside-down tournament where they won the first two games and then are on a losing spree of 3 on a trot. The defeat against Zimbabwe came at a cost as skipper Zeeshan Maqsood injured himself and Oman were knocked out of the qualification scenarios. The graph of the bowlers and the batter has dipped massively in the recent games as they have conceded in excess of 300 in the last two games and were bundled out under 100 in the other game. The batters need to step up big time and the bowlers are crying for backing from the fielders as the fielding has been really poor from the Associate side. Can Oman knock the Dutch out of the qualification scenario or will the Dutch stay in the hunt for the last spot up for grabs? Let's see as toss and team updates coming soon...

Netherlands have had an amazing outing in Zimbabwe as they have played an aggressive brand of cricket with clinical performances and the best of them came against the mighty West Indies where they chased down a mammoth score of 374. The defeat against Sri Lanka was just by a margin of 21 runs and they would be looking to not repeat the mistakes of losing wickets on a regular interval again today. The form of Logan van Beek and Bas de Leede with their all-around abilities has been a big positive for the Dutch side. Though they would be looking for a better performance from the likes of Vikramjit Singh and Max O'Dowd to help them stay in he hunt for the final spot up for grabs for the ICC Cricket World Cup later this year.

Hello and welcome to all our viewers. Oman takes on Netherlands in match no. 5 of the Super Sixes in the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup qualifiers. We are right down to the business end as the qualification scenario intensifies. 

...MATCH DAY...

The table in the Super Sixes of the ICC World Cup Qualifiers 2023 is shaping up nicely and we are close to finding out which two teams will make it to the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup that will be played in India later this year. What we do know is that the two-time world champions West Indies will not take part in the mega event as they hit yet another low and this has opened the way for teams like Scotland and Netherlands to challenge the likes of Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka for the coveted spots. We focus our attention on match number 5 at the Harare Sports Club and in this game, Netherlands have a mathematical chance of making it to the finals as they lock horns against an Oman side that have overachieved by making it to this phase but will not go further in the competition. Netherlands reached this stage by finishing second in Group A, winning three games and losing one against Zimbabwe in the first game of their campaign. The Super-over win against West Indies showed their batting potential as they tied a target of 374 runs and owned the one-over tiebreaker. Their first game in the Super Sixes was against Group B toppers Sri Lanka and they will be extremely disappointed about not winning that tie. They put in a wonderful bowling performance and bowled out the Lankans for a measly total of 213 with Logan van Beek and Bas de Leede claiming three wickets each and taking their tournament tally to 10 and 9 wickets respectively. Their batters let them down as they could not overcome the target and were knocked over for 192 runs. Just three batters got into double figures with Wesley Barresi and skipper Scott Edwards reaching half-centuries and Bas de Leede contributing with 41 runs. It was a massive letdown, especially after the outing they had against the Windies where their bowlers had an off day and they will be hoping that both departments come to the party in the same game. Scott Edwards (284 runs) and Max O'Dowd (211 runs) have done the chunk of the scoring with Teja Nidamanuru and Vikramjit Singh also among the runs but the latter two were dismissed on a duck in the previous fixture. Oman won their first two games of the competition to boost their chances of making it further but two losses thereafter condemned them to the third spot in Group B. They clashed against Group A table-toppers Zimbabwe in their first game of the Super Sixes and they gave the Test-playing nation a run for their money. Despite Fayyaz Butt's four-wicket haul, they were unable to restrict the scoring and were set a target of 333 to chase down. Kashyap Prajapati kept them on the hunt though with an outstanding century and there were contributions from the in-form batters Aqib Ilyas and Ayaan Khan but they fell short of the finish line by 14 runs. Bilal Khan and Fayyaz Butt both have 10 wickets in the competition so far and they will be hoping to be at their best in this game. Will they pull off a massive upset and shatter the dreams of the Dutch players? Or will Netherlands stay alive in the competition with a dominating win? We will find out soon.
