[HamzaSaeen]

[Aman]

more like 200

[Aman]

AB should easily get 100 with the form he's in

 

[HamzaSaeen]

you jinxed him

hahahah epic jinx! what a jinx that was! the moment I posted he got out! )

 

[Aman]

Yeah lol the exact moment xD

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Yeah lol the exact moment xD

dare I say now that SA will make 500 runs...

 

[MenInG]

Amla gone for 20.

 

[Executioner]

Suprised to see no RTD. The one batsman in Dutch side who can enter any batting lineup in the world atm, considering ODIs.

I am sure he is better than Ingram and Behardien.

 

[WebGuru]

I guess Ingram is going to have another 100

 

[Aman]

Dirk Nannes retire?

He's not interested in playing for Netherlands any more. Same with Kervezee. They'd rather play for their county.

Yes I am aware of that. They probably get a good amount of money by playing in their respective counties.

Its a sad state of affairs in cricket right now. In the past, we always would emphasise on the national team having the best XI players in the country. Things have changed drastcially with selection issues, poaching, fixing, lack of interest, and premiere leagues

 

[WebGuru]

Seems like going to be another record partnership.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ingram is a player to watch this tournament.

 

[WebGuru]

Both Duminy and Ingram ODI average increased to 40+ now.

 

[WebGuru]

Duminy seems in good touch after coming from a long break.

 

[Jo_Don]

Faf and Ingram seem in good touch too. Hope they can all carry it through.

 

[IM NOT YOU]

136 off last 6 overs


rofl


unreal



so much for cant beat minnows properly because of "tough conditions".... pakistan wouldnt make 136 runs vs netherlands in 40 overs let alone 6

 

[soso_killer]

This match is not even on supersport is there a live stream?

I don't think scoring was accurate in cricinfo for this match

see this:

End of over 47 (38 runs)

And if you calculate the score it doesn't look like 38 were scored in that over.

 

[Jo_Don]

Last 5 overs went for 99, so I don't think that the last 6 went for 136.

 

[sam_ahm]

I too wanted to know why Ryan is not playing, that's extremely disappointing can't he take some time just for one game for the Netherlands? He didn't play in the WT20 qualifiers either.

Kervezee is also a big loss to dutch cricket. very sad state of affairs.

 

[Steynremover]

Behardien has 2 wickets

 

[WebGuru]

Behardien has 2 wickets

So now Farhaan got 3 ODI wickets his first one was against Pak

 

[WebGuru]

Well played Szwarczynski unfortunate to get run out at 98 otherwise he was going to be the second batsman from Netherlands to score a Century against a Test Playing Nation the first one was scored by Ryan ten Doeschate against England in 2011 WorldCup.

 

[WebGuru]

Although SA won but Good fight showed by Dutch team against SA attack.
