England v Netherlands | World T20 | Lords | 5/6/09 [Netherlands WIN]

[iafzal]

ten sure swing like Afridi : )

 

[Lethal]

Ten Doeschate with all his experience for Essex and especially in conditions he should know about should do it for Netherlands.

41 off 36 balls.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

If Netherlands beats England, we might have a problem if England beat Pakistan, and the Netherlands v Pakistan match is rained off,or England beat us by a bigger margin than we beat Netherlands by! We'll be out!

We need Netherlands to lose to England. Then we only have to beat Netherlands, irregardless of how we perform against England.

If Pakistan wants to be a winner, then they need to play like one. We shouldn't be relying on other games results for us to get into super 8. They need to have some self-esteem and confidence, not rely on other results...

 

[CricVet]

I think Eng has brought Adil a few overs 2 late

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Four!

 

[shaun3]

what a shot! rocks back and cuts the leggie for a beautiful 4

 

[Sparhawk]

That was a classy shot

 

[Lethal]

True. Come on England.

 

[On_the_up]

netherlands should be favourites now but the pressure

 

[iafzal]

If neds don't get all out I don't see them losing from here

 

[Sparhawk]

What if Netherlands loses to England, Pakistan vs Netherlands gets rained off and England beat us by a bigger margin than they beat Netherlands?

 

[Lethal]

That was a top shot from Ten Doeschate. 4 all the way.

 

[CricVet]

Eng has lost it man. They have lost their nerves

 

[shaun3]

Oh no! huge chance for a runout and the throw was far wayward

 

[iafzal]

this is funny Eng behaving like Pak team in the field

 

[shaun3]

33 needed from 28

 

[iafzal]

it is raining now

 

[CricVet]

Eng did not attack when they had to and now please exit out.

 

[Lethal]

Netherlands should win this but you never know, a quick couple of wickets and the game is back in favour of England.

 

[shaun3]

dutch running extremely well, lots and lots of singles/doubles

 

[insaftak]

out!!! 24balls 30 runs

 

[Sparhawk]

Needless wicket.. Borren goes for 30

 

[shaun3]

gone, anderson take a wicket as the batsman skies it miles high

 

[Lethal]

Are Netherlands ahead of the DL requirement?

 

[DonJee]

what's the par score???

 

[12thMan]

We can't show D/L position, I'm afraid - it's "done" by software which is licensed by the Duckworth and Lewis. I can tell you that Netherlands are miles ahead of the mark

D/L par score probably on scorebaord at the ground

 

[CricVet]

what is the par score needed afte 5 wkts?

 

[dblock]

Any major side and they would have called rain by now.

 

[Lethal]

No need for that. Borren goes after skying it.

 

[Sparhawk]

I have a bad feeling about this, Netherlands are showing nerves now

 

[CricVet]

136 damn

 

[Sparhawk]

4444444444444444!!!!

Brilliant!!

 

[CricVet]

444444444444

 

[Lethal]

30 runs off 24 balls

 

[Sparhawk]

Might not have been 4, great fielding from key

 

[Oxy]

What a save on the boundary by Key!

26 off 21 balls

 

[CricVet]

damn. Not givemn

 

[Oxy]

Stunning 4!

22 off 20 balls!

 

[CricVet]

Tata. Hahahha

 

[Sparhawk]

Smashed through covers 44444444444444444444

Fearless cricket you gotta love it!

 

[Lethal]

Netherlands need to be on 136 after this over as long as the don't lose wickets - that is if they go off due to rain.

 

[insaftak]

england sucks

 

[Oxy]

21 off 19 balls

 

[shaun3]

another 4!

 

[Oxy]

21 off 18 balls

 

[shaun3]

21 from 19, nobody letting up

 

[Oxy]

Anderson in

20 off 17 balls

 

[Lethal]

Netherlands are ahead with those 3 runs. So if they go off after this over which is unlikey - Netherlands game.

 

[CricVet]

These guys can slog 2. good God. Eng - Bye Bye. See u in 2010

 

[Oxy]

Whats was Dirk Nannes fastest ball today?

 

[Kashi786]

how was this wide, height or the line, bad umpiring by da silva

 

[Oxy]

19 off 16 balls

CAn the Dutch stay calm?

 

[Lethal]

What a shot by Van Bunge. Inside out for 4 runs.

 

[12thMan]

Martin understands all things Duckworth Lewis better than I. He says: "Right, Netherlands ahead. They need to be 144 at the end of this over assuming they don't lose a wicket."

 

[Oxy]

18 off 15 balls

 

[Oxy]

Good over so far

17 off 14 balls

 

[12thMan]

Netherlands have got a wicket to play with. Even if they lose one more wicket, they'll still be ahead on duckworth-lewis. Yes - I don't understand either. Just nod and agree with me

 

[shaun3]

Whats was Dirk Nannes fastest ball today?

i think it was 92....i think

 

[CricVet]

Go ahead dutch. Hit 2 4s and it is all over

 

[Oxy]

slow ball - dot

17 off 13 balls

 

[Osman]

Tension!

 

[Sparhawk]

Whats was Dirk Nannes fastest ball today?

Didnt see Nannes but i saw Sidebottom hit 89 mph which was a shocker

 

[Zaad]

wow

that means we can elimanate
England on Sunday

 

[Lethal]

Whats was Dirk Nannes fastest ball today?

The fastest that I remember from Nannes was 92.3mph

He was bowling with serious pace.

 

[CricVet]

Damn!

 

[Oxy]

OUT!

17 off 13 balls

Now they are behind the D/L

 

[insaftak]

[Geordie Ahmed]

[shaun3]

[Sparhawk]

Bange goes, when it comes off it looks heroic when it doesnt it looks stupid.

Its up to ten now

 

[the Great Khan]

Not good for pak if Dutch win

 

[muzher]

ten Doeschate will have seen plenty of these English bowlers. Expect him to play more responsibly in this stand.

 

[Lethal]

Should be a tight finish - good over so far

 

[Osman]

Huge Blow!

 

[Oxy]

17 off 11 balls

Its England's game from here

 

[Sparhawk]

Not good for pak if Dutch win

Its the same for us either way

 

[Lethal]

Van Bunge is gone.

 

[Oxy]

Collison mid pitch - Dutch panicking

16 from 10 balls

 

[Lethal]

17 off 12.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Anderson and Adil are done with their overs though...
