This might effectively be curtains… has Inglis inadvertantly stumped van Meekeren?
WICKET! Dutt lbw b Zampa 1 (Netherlands 90-9)
Zampa strikes once more! After seeing an enormous attraction for LBW turned down rightly by an impressive choice from Umpire Michael Gough the diminutive leggie pins Dutt LBW to go away the Aussies needing only one extra!
twentieth over: Netherlands 87-8 (Edwards 10, Dutt 0) Only a single off Marsh, Zampa jogs in to take the ball as soon as extra. He fancies ending this off sharpish.
nineteenth over: Netherlands 86-8 (Edwards 9, Dutt 0) Aryan Dutt is the brand new batter and he ramps up the drama by halting proceedings for a minute, seems like within the scrabble to get his package on he got here out to the center with the mistaken helmet. We’ve all been there, granted not in a World Cup match… Right here we go… can Zampa be a part of Brett Lee as the one different Aussie to snare a World Cup hat-trick!? CLOSE BUT NO CIGAR! A full ball on the stumps skidded onto Dutt however he managed to maintain it out. Simply.

Zampa in amongst it! van Beek tries to chop a ball that was too full from the leggie, will get a meaty edge and Josh Inglis does the remaining…
WICKET! Nidamanuru c Inglis b Marsh 14 (Netherlands 84-6)
Tender dismissal for Nidamanuru who had performed a beautiful decide up shot off Marsh earlier within the over. A again of a size ball is glanced off the face of the bat into Josh Inglish’s gleeful gauntlets behind the stumps. Netherlands lose their sixth wicket inside 20 overs – the Aussies are giving their very own web run price a shot within the arm right here.
Logan van Beek is the brand new batter and he sees out the top of the over.
18th over: Netherlands 85-6 (Edwards 5, van Beek 0)
Up to date at 10.44 EDT
seventeenth over: Netherlands 78-5 (Edwards 5, Nidamanuru 7) Zampa it’s, he begins by flighting a pair and discovering some flip from the off. Nidamanuru and Edwards are watchful, knocking the ball into the gaps and gathering singles. It’s not sufficient for the Dutch and the required run price rises like a hissing yellow cobra.
sixteenth over: Netherlands 74-5 (Edwards 5, Nidamanuru 7) 5 runs off Marsh, Adam Zampa has been given the nod and is warming up. He’s been very spectacular on this World Cup thus far.

WICKET! Engelbrecht c Warner b Marsh 11 (Netherlands 62-5)
Sure that was an …Ellipsis of Doom… because of a laptop computer buffering at my finish. Engelbrecht is unlucky to fall actually, Marsh sends down a brief ball that the extravagantly monkired batter flat bats away powerfully solely to see David Warner pouch a elegant catch on the leg aspect fence. Generally it simply ain’t your day.
Engelbrecht is a gun fielder himself (belief me, value a google) and may effectively admire with time that seize from Warner. The replays present that the gnarled Aussie was pleased with that one, a Garfield smile spreading throughout his chops after the ball nestled safely in his paws.
Up to date at 10.20 EDT
thirteenth over: Netherlands 62-4 (Engelbrecht 11, Edwards 2) Three runs off the over, Cummins provides nothing to hit and zones in on the entrance pad. Mitch Marsh is tossed the ball and is approaching to interchange Hazlewood…
twelfth over: Netherlands 59-4 (Engelbrecht 9, Edwards 1) Six runs pocketed off Hazlewood’s over, Engelbrecht pushes a full ball within the hole at further cowl and the batters scamper a lesser noticed three.
On the previous NRR entrance – I’m no mathematician however I feel that it’s excellent news for England if Australia romp house right here – If the Dutch are skittled for lower than 250 runs then England will probably transfer as much as eighth within the desk.
WOULDNT THAT BE SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE?!*
*No
WICKET! de Leede lbw b Cummins 4 (Netherlands 53-4)
de Leede performs one of many strokes of the day (which is saying one thing) a caressed drive off Cummins pings via mid off with Swiss Dutch clock timing. Stunning. Gah!

The overview exhibits the ball was kissing leg stump with a fragile peck.

Thanks Jonathan, prime work overlaying the mayhem and genius of the ultimate ten overs! Hiya everybody, Jim right here to steer you thru the Dutch response, simply the small matter of 400 runs wanted for the lads in orange.
The stattos throughout the globe are duly working themselves right into a numerical lather over that record-breaking innings. Right here’s one which simply caught my eye – from the err Stunning Thoughts of Daniel Norcross (I’m pretty sure he may have pinched it…)
Jonathan Howcroft
It wants stating on the outset of this half-time round-up that the Netherlands didn’t bowl badly, by no means misplaced their heads, have been captained astutely, and fielded in addition to you can ever think about in such situations. And nonetheless they discover themselves chasing 400.
There are two essential causes for that: David Warner and Glenn Maxwell.
The previous anchored Australia’s innings after Pat Cummins gained the toss and made a measured 104 from 93 deliveries. It was an innings of bursts of runs and passages of calm from the veteran who laid the inspiration for the carnage that adopted. Round him Steve Smith (71) and Marnus Labuschagne (62) regarded in respectable contact and Mitch Marsh (9) fell early.
However Australia slipped from 244-2 to 290-6 and as a substitute of cantering in the direction of 400 the goal grew to become rather more modest. Till Maxwell fulfilled his cricketing future with a 40-ball century – the quickest in world cup historical past by 9 balls! And he did so with a number of the most outrageous photographs you can ever see on a cricket area. It was a pleasure to witness. In seven overs his partnership with Cummins was value 103 runs and turned a contest into a piece of efficiency artwork.
Bas de Leede bore the brunt of the injury, ending his 10 overs with figures of two/115 – a brand new document for the costliest spell in world cups. However, given time, I’m positive even he’ll admire the function he performed in one of the vital astonishing passages of cricket within the sport’s historical past.
And with that, it’s time for James Wallace to take management and see you thru the Dutch run chase. Catch you quickly.

WICKET! Maxwell c Engelbrecht b van Beek 106 (Australia 393-7)
Fittingly, Maxwell will get to exit on his personal phrases, launching one other mighty blow, this time shut sufficient to the very good Engelbrecht, who runs round and pouches a sliding catch inches from the fence.
49.3 over: Australia 393-6 (Maxwell 106, Cummins 8) Even the mishits are going to the rope. Maxwell fails with the reverse lap however the again of the bat nonetheless deflects the ball past the keeper and away for 4. That’s the century partnership off simply 43 balls.
100 for Glenn Maxwell (40 balls – new world cup document)
forty ninth over: Australia 389-6 (Maxwell 102, Cummins 8) Maxwellball is life. De Leede begins his over bowling full and straight so Maxwell belts him again down the bottom for consecutive fours. Then he marmalises a slower ball over midwicket for six, and helps a legside full toss out of the bottom for six extra! Carnage! Carnage on a historic scale! 4/4/6/6… what’s subsequent? Six extra! One other full toss helped over sq. leg. The quickest world cup century – and by a large margin – beating Aidan Markram’s mark of 49 set just some days in the past. That is staggering. Maxwell removes his helmet, holds his arms broad and soaks up the adulation. That is the approaching collectively of every little thing he’s been promising his complete profession.

forty eighth over: Australia 361-6 (Maxwell 75, Cummins 8) Van Beek has the unenviable process of coming into the assault to play the function of cannon fodder. Maxwell welcomes him by standing his floor and hoiking a six over cow nook. Cummins then joins within the enjoyable, however luckily, miscuing a slog that O’Dowd may have gone for on the complete coming in off the midwicket fence, however as a substitute he hesitated and missed the half-volley. Maxwell is quickly again on strike, stepping to leg and carving one other unbelievable six over backward level. It’s like watching a pc animation. How does he do that?
Maxwell 75 off 35!
forty seventh over: Australia 340-6 (Maxwell 61, Cummins 3) Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Maxwell repeats that swap hit over level, solely this time he middles it miles into the group. How do you bowl to that? 50 up for the magician off simply 27 deliveries.
Good lord, now he’s hit the identical shot however as a pull! Mid-leap! That was a crunching six with the ball nearly on his grille! That is efficiency artwork.
Up to date at 08.18 EDT
forty sixth over: Australia 325-6 (Maxwell 46, Cummins 3) Drink it in individuals, that is classic Maxwellball. After exchanging singles together with his skipper, the Victorian switch-hits an outrageous one-bounce 4 over what was level. Then he stands his floor and heaves a six over sq. leg. Van Meekeren retains his composure to see out the over with minimal additional injury.
forty fifth over: Australia 312-6 (Maxwell 34, Cummins 2) De Leede mixes up his size and tempo to disclaim Australia a boundary. Maxwell nonetheless manages to push the rating together with a leaping ramp exterior off stump that’s hauled in simply in need of the rope.
forty fourth over: Australia 305-6 (Maxwell 30, Cummins 0) Beautiful delicate late reduce for 4 from Maxwell to start van Meekeren’s ninth over. He then fails to attach with a few swipes, earlier than a borderline broad bouncer makes it three dots in a row. One other mighty swipe from Maxwell skews off the skin edge and miles into the Delhi sky. Will it land in a fielder’s fingers? Nearly! Teja Nidamanuru was up within the ring at mid-off and he couldn’t make sufficient floor stumbling backwards and diving forlornly.
forty third over: Australia 297-6 (Maxwell 22, Cummins 0) Maxwell retains the momentum flowing with an improbably wonderful sweep for 4. A pair extra observe then a rotation of strike. Cummins simply has to face one supply, and van der Merwe is aware of the Australian skipper isn’t going to be curious about something flash, so he tosses up a full broad supply for the No 8 to chase. Cummins takes the bait, misses the ball, and Edwards claims a catch behind the stumps. The Dutch skipper takes an age deciding if he ought to REVIEW or not. Cheers greet the T sign nevertheless it doesn’t take lengthy for Rassie Erasmus to determine there was no bat concerned.
