We are back for the chase!

... THE RUN CHASE ...

Right then, Netherlands have posted an under-par total here and will need to bowl their skins out to defend this. South Africa are coming here after a T20I series against West Indies where most of the batters enjoyed their time and scored runs freely which should give them more confidence of gunning this down with ease. Let's see how the chase unfolds in a bit.

South Africa will be happy with their bowling effort. They struggled a bit in the first Powerplay, but after that they got things under control and never looked like giving anything to the visitors. Sisanda Magala had a brilliant game as he ended up with three wickets while Tabraiz Shamsi also picked up three scalps. Anrich Nortje got two to his name, and Kagiso Rabada and Aiden Markram chipped on with one each.

Netherlands got off to a good start with stiching up a 58-run opening stand between Max O'Dowd and Vikramjit Singh with the latter being the aggressor. The former could not stick around for long after that, and Singh missed out on his fifty by five runs. After that they kept losing wickets at regular intervals with no batters contributing significantly except for Teja Nidamanuru who fought hard and scored a gritty 48 runs. They would be disappointed as they would have liked to get something

South Africa needed a good performance, and they have produced exactly that in the first half of this game. This is a crucial game for them, and their bowlers stepped up and restricted the Dutch to 189, which makes the job of their batters a bit easier, and they will be happy going into the break.

We are all set for the game to begin. But first, the two teams line up for their respective national anthem. First, we will have the national anthem of the Netherlands followed by the national anthem of South Africa. 

PITCH REPORT - Ashwell Prince is pitchside along with Shaun Pollock. He says that it looks like the rain will stay away and it is a bit cold. Adds that no suprise that they have elected to bowl first as there will be uneven bounce on the wicket. Pollock says that it looks a bit over-prepared. Tells that the ball might take off and also keep low and the batters will find it difficult here. 

Netherlands (Playing XI) - Vikramjit Singh, Max O'Dowd, Musa Ahmad, Wesley Barresi, Scott Edwards (C)&(WK), Teja Nidamanuru, Shariz Ahmad, Aryan Dutt, Ryan Klein, Paul van Meekeren, Fred Klaassen.

South Africa (Playing XI) - Temba Bavuma (C), Quinton de Kock (WK), Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Sisanda Magala, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Tabraiz Shamsi. 

TOSS - The coin goes up and lands in favour of South Africa. They have elected to BOWL first.​​​​​​

We are back for the chase!

... THE RUN CHASE ...

Right then, Netherlands have posted an under-par total here and will need to bowl their skins out to defend this. South Africa are coming here after a T20I series against West Indies where most of the batters enjoyed their time and scored runs freely which should give them more confidence of gunning this down with ease. Let's see how the chase unfolds in a bit.

South Africa will be happy with their bowling effort. They struggled a bit in the first Powerplay, but after that they got things under control and never looked like giving anything to the visitors. Sisanda Magala had a brilliant game as he ended up with three wickets while Tabraiz Shamsi also picked up three scalps. Anrich Nortje got two to his name, and Kagiso Rabada and Aiden Markram chipped on with one each.

Netherlands got off to a good start with stiching up a 58-run opening stand between Max O'Dowd and Vikramjit Singh with the latter being the aggressor. The former could not stick around for long after that, and Singh missed out on his fifty by five runs. After that they kept losing wickets at regular intervals with no batters contributing significantly except for Teja Nidamanuru who fought hard and scored a gritty 48 runs. They would be disappointed as they would have liked to get something

South Africa needed a good performance, and they have produced exactly that in the first half of this game. This is a crucial game for them, and their bowlers stepped up and restricted the Dutch to 189, which makes the job of their batters a bit easier, and they will be happy going into the break.

Adds that no suprise that they have elected to bowl first as there will be uneven bounce on the wicket. Pollock says that it looks a bit over-prepared. Tells that the ball might take off and also keep low and the batters will find it difficult here.
