Presentation Time...

Earlier in the game, Bangladesh posted a good total on the board courtesy of a brilliant half-century from Shakib Al Hasan while Tanzid Hasan and Mahmudullah also contributed well. Aryan Dutt and Paul van Meekeren were the pick of the bowlers for the Dutch  with a couple of wickets each while Tim Pringle chipped in with one. While chasin, Netherlands lost a couple of wickets early, but despite that got themselves in a good position. However, a big batting collapse after that cost them dearly in this game.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, have managed to defend this total but they did have a scare in the middle overs. They started well with Taskin Ahmed and Tanzim Hasan Sakib getting rid of both the openers early. Mahmudullah was called upon for one over and got a crucial breakthrough as well. However, it was their tall leggie, Rishad Hossain who made the difference in the end. He remained composed even after getting hit for a few, picked up three crucial wickets, including the big one of Sybrand Engelbrecht. Fizz was simply sensational with the ball and conceded just 12 runs in his entire spell and got one scalp as well.

Netherlands could not really utilise the Powerplay and lost both openers as well with not much on the board. It was the pair of Vikramjit and Sybrand Engelbrecht that steadied the ship for them with a crucial partnership but the former departed just as when he was starting to look dangerous. Then skipper Scott Edwards took responsibility and supported Sybrand Engelbrecht who was founding the boundaries at his will. They got them in a solid position but then lost two wickets in the same over which put them behind once again. They never really recovered from that and lost their skipper soon after. That was the nail in the coffin for them.

A crucial victory for Bangladesh! It was a professional performance from them and this means that, they are one step closer to the Super-8 stage now. Netherlands gave a tough fight but fell short in the end. Their qualification hopes gets slimmer, as now they need to beat Sri Lanka and hope that Bangladesh loses to Nepal. This result also means that the Lankans are officially out of this World Cup.
