India (193/6) defeat Netherlands (176/7) by 17 runs to continue their unbeaten run in T20 World Cup 2026

[Katwalindian]

India saved by dube........ rest is mediocre bunch today.......

 

[Chuggy]

Pakistan should not have played like that against this overrated Indian team.

Pakistan keep repeating those same mistakes with those same players.
Timid meek players against India.

Pakistan beats Pakistan against India they don't even need to try so let's not even have that discussion.

 

[Katwalindian]

One of most overrated power hitter in world cricket hardik pandaya.... any decent bowler come and he didn't knew what to do....

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Thing is, in this Indian team someone has always turned up.

So far at least.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pandya ruined that over bro.

 

[RexRex]

Dube looks like the love child of Ajay Jadeja and Yuvraj.

 

[Devadwal]

This Indian team is a beast, they have someone who stands up.

Earlier we used to depend on the top 3, but now it is not so.

 

[Human786]

Do you watch cricket or is it just trolling ? Pandya is rated by most fans .
160/4 in 18

 

[globetrotter]

Sharma's 3rd duck is real worrysome & great news for the other teams ... Nasir thinks 185-190 would be a good score !
153/4 in 17 - Dube batting well .

It shows Indian team is not depend on a single players..... all are champions and match winners

 

[sweep_shot]

IND - 160/4 (18 overs).

Netherlands have done pretty well so far.

 

[Devadwal]

Pandya aaj karke ni aya hai ?

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Dube Ji making full use of his reprieve.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

200 is still on

 

[Rajdeep]

IND - 160/4 (18 overs).

Netherlands have done pretty well so far.

Whats your prediction bro? Who is winning?

 

[DRsohail]

Bravo Shivam Dube

The most under appreciated star in this team but often Chris silent contributor.

He is such a utility cricketer. Everyone mentions Verma knock in asia cup fina but his quick runs and bowling was great. His bowling is underrated, has always done well whenever git the opportunity.

 

[Savak]

Dube is a proper batsman, he can defend good deliveries if needed, he can play regular orthodox cricketing shots to good deliveries and put them away and he can brutally slog cleanly and efficiently if the ball is in his zone.

 

[Rajdeep]

This over lasted longer than Usman Tariq's pause

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Incredible hitting 6

 

[G0rmintAunty]

This Klein is really enjoying himself, laughing after each boundary.

 

[shah9425]

Amir was right . Sharma is just a slogger . 3 ducks in WC

Shocking

 

[Kroll]

Pakistan have no clue how to pace an innings, you only need one or two guys to hang around and you can still get to a very good score despite initial setbacks.

Pakistan go into panic mode and just whittle out. Who is strategising this team?

 

[Devadwal]

Good catch. 186/5.

 

[Hikaru]

Panic sets in from the lack of self-belief which in turn is a reflection of lacking ability.

 

[deltexas]

Ned is not chasing 190 here.. Someone in the Ind team stands up and delivers , thats why they are a champion team and will be a massive upset if they dont win this WC..

 

[RexRex]

Rinku Singh looks like the love child of Rashid Khan and Kohli.

 

[Devadwal]

194 to win.

 

[Rajdeep]

Why did Pandya took the single? Rinku would have smoked another six

 

[globetrotter]

Netherlands thinks they have outside chance to score 194 and win the match

 

[Hikaru]

193 it is. Pakistan beats Bharat by 6 runs. Sahibzada Farhan MoM.

Congrats boys.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

194 is the target. Middle and lower middle order coming to the rescue again. Top 3 except Kishan's 1 innings have been under par so far in this WC

Wish top 3 clicks in super 8s

 

[Asif321]

Shocking

Even Faheem got him out easily in Asia cup . Amir would have eaten him alive .

 

[shah9425]

Even Faheem got him out easily in Asia cup . Amir would have eaten him alive .

Looks like he is king of flat bilateral series

 

[Justcrazy]

194 is the target .

As usual India targets 200 in every game.

 

[Prince of Dorne]

Pandya aaj karke ni aya hai ?

Abhi bas do din pehle Pakistan ke sath karke aya, bhul gaye?

 

[Asif321]

Looks like he is king of flat bilateral series

Ishan looks much better . Sharma is someone like Sharjeel .

 

[shah9425]

Ishan looks much better . Sharma is someone like Sharjeel .

Sharjeel was pathetic
Don't remember his one good innings

 

[Devadwal]

194 is the target. Middle and lower middle order coming to the rescue again. Top 3 except Kishan's 1 innings have been under par so far in this WC

Wish top 3 clicks in super 8s

194 against the Netherlands is a good score, but I'm not satisfied with our batting. We need contributions from the top order to win the Big match.
Abhishek's performance is very poor, Tilak's strike rate is also poor, and the same is the case with Pandya and Sky.

 

[Devadwal]

Abhi bas do din pehle Pakistan ke sath karke aya, bhul gaye?

With bat nope but bowled very well.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India saved by dube........ rest is mediocre bunch today.......

Lol That is how champion teams do.. somebody will step up.

 

[Asif321]

Sharjeel was pathetic
Don't remember his one good innings

He is pathetic too . They asked Amir again . He said “phir se bolta hu slogger hai “

 

[jnaveen1980]

Kishan was very unlucky

 

[shah9425]

He is pathetic too

At least he score some runs in bilateral

Sharjeel couldn't even did that

 

[charlie007]

Hardly any batter clicked, yet they scored nearly 200!

 

[Prince of Dorne]

Pakistan beats Pakistan against India they don't even need to try so let's not even have that discussion.

Of course, Pakistan is actually a world beater when not facing India. Against India it's all mental, universal, philosophical, and metaphysical issues that drag them down. Nothing to do with lack of skills, technic and talent.

 

[Asif321]

At least he score some runs in bilateral

Sharjeel couldn't even did that

Sharjeel had potential but I think he was unfit also . Then ended up in doing shady things . Sharjeel Fakhar combo was something I was looking forward in 2017

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Pitch is good for batting + dew, Ned will give this a shot

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Arshdeep has no control with new ball, good that he got dropped in Pak game

 

[shah9425]

Sharjeel had potential but I think he was unfit also . Then ended up in doing shady things . Sharjeel Fakhar combo was something I was looking forward in 2017

He was so fatso and unfit I remember
Never worked on his fitness

 

[AAli98]

That second delivery was a clear chuck from Bumra

 

[DRsohail]

Earlier we used to depend on the top 3, but now it is not so.

Yes, its like Australia of 2000s, they had someone stepping up.
But this is only in t20 for india, they have to do the same in tests and odi.

 

[Justcrazy]

Bumrah not easy to get away

 

[Devadwal]

Wow what a Swinging Yorker.

 

[Devadwal]

That second delivery was a clear chuck from Bumra

Usman Tariq is not bowling here.

 

[Hikaru]

That second delivery was a clear chuck from Bumra

 

[Prince of Dorne]

He was so fatso and unfit I remember
Never worked on his fitness

O bhai, talk about fixers in the fixing related threads, please don't derail this thread

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yes, its like Australia of 2000s, they had someone stepping up.
But this is only in t20 for india, they have to do the same in tests and odi.

They already did in tests in England

 

[Human786]

It shows Indian team is not depend on a single players..... all are champions and match winners

75 runs in last 5 was a good finish after being 4 down .
NED 11/0

 

[globetrotter]

Good start by Netherlands 11-0.... they have great chance... Pakistan fans should start celebration

 

[Hikaru]

3 overs and so much luck already for Netherlands. Reminds me of Fakhar inning.

 

[Human786]

Can IND restrict them to under 150 ?
17/0 in 3

 

[Ball Blazer]

Good start by Netherlands 11-0.... they have great chance... Pakistan fans should start celebration

lol
will it will be like ind vs usa?

feeling close atm but india clinchinh it eventually

 

[Human786]

dropped by Sharma

 

[Devadwal]

Dropped. BUMRAH is bowling great spell but unlucky so far.

 

[DRsohail]

They already did in tests in England

Didn’t happen on home ground but they may get better. Yes england tour was great one.

 

[DRsohail]

Bumrah is unplayable.

 

[Hikaru]

O'Dowd looks clueless against Bumrah.

 

[Devadwal]

Shubman Gill was in the form of his life before the 2023 World Cup, but then dengue happened.

Abhishek Sharma was in the form of his life before this T20 World Cup, but then a stomach infection happened.

Sometimes, timing is just cruel.

 

[Human786]

No wickets .... 22/0 in 4

 

[jnaveen1980]

Didn’t happen on home ground but they may get better. Yes england tour was great one.

Indian pitches have been lottery oflate

 

[Justcrazy]

22 . 0

4 overs.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Dutch can take this to the end if playing sensibly . Pakistan made Indian bowlers look like world class

 

[Human786]

Sundar pitt raha hai ... 30/0

 

[Justcrazy]

S I X

Big hit.

 

[Justcrazy]

India will make comeback , the total is big , Associate team batting not that good.

 

[Human786]

35/1

 

[Hellion]

Dutch can take this to the end if playing sensibly . Pakistan made Indian bowlers look like world class

Dutch batsmen are more talented

 

[Human786]

35/1

Varun - what a champion bowler .

 

[chakdeindian]

Someone (may be SG) has done Kala jadoo on Indian openers.. First Samson, now Abhishek and may be next is Ishan Kishan..Fortunately we have players who are there to rescue our team from bad position..Jokes apart, for my naked eye, Abhishek doesn't look that fit..He looks pale and lean..Tilak lacks rotational skills and Sky is playing over cautious..Time to recalibrate and fire back..Lil prayer to Tirupati Balaji would help..

 

[Human786]

NED have done well in this game .
44/1 in 7

 

[Justcrazy]

44 . 1

7 overs
