5:47 PM IST ...Presentation coming up...

5:41 PM IST There were some poor shot selection from South Africa. They underrated this Dutch bowling and took things lightly which turned out to be a bad decision. South Africa were 44 for 4, Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller did give some hope by steading the ship but once Heinrich Klaasen got out, the pressure was all on David Miller who felt vulnerable on this pitch and his wicket almost put the game in the bed. Netherlands played as a unit, they were outstanding in the field and were more eager for the win than South Africa.

5:36 PM IST The turning point of this game was when Scott Edwards walked out to bat. Netherlands were all set to finish under 200 but the skipper had other ideas and better determination than everyone. Scott Edwards and the Dutch tail wag to add around 100 runs in the final 10 overs to put up a competitive score. That just gave the momentum to Netherlands who then turned up with the ball. Spin to win as we saw, Netherlands kept things slow, made the most of the pitch and once Quinton de Kock got out, the floodgates opened. Logan van Beek was just brilliant. The others too did their job dearly.
