ODI no. 2738 | 2008 season

29 July 2008 (50-over match)


Netherlands innings (50 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
DJ Reekers	c Berrington b Blain	0	1	1	0	0	0.00
0.1 followed up with a wide full ball, Reekers couldn't resist the drive but could only find backward point who took an easy catch. Terrible start again for The Netherlands as Reekers is goes for a Golden Duck! 1/1
TN de Grooth	c †Smith b Blain	8	15	15	1	0	53.33
4.2 gone! just short of a length and seaming back in to catch a fine inside edge through to Smith, de Grooth didn't walk but the Umpire had no doubt 13/2
DLS van Bunge	c & b Berrington	34	98	88	1	1	38.63
24.6 very soft dismissal, it was a ball just short of a length which he tried to force past the bowler, it may have just stopped on him a little as he popped an easy return catch to Berrington. Very good partnership for The Netherlands 84/4
RN ten Doeschate	c Hamilton b Blain	0	2	1	0	0	0.00
4.3 disaster at the top of the order again for the Netherlands and it's the prize wicket of ten Doeschate. A short of a length delivery whch he tried to pull over midwicket, he didn't get hold of it and Hamilton took an easy catch at square leg 13/3
ES Szwarczynski	c Watson b Blain	53	132	72	7	0	73.61
38.1 that's the big wicket and another good catch at first slip by Watson, it was on a good length and he just pushed at it. This looks bleak now for The Netherlands 116/9
PW Borren	b Rogers	0	3	4	0	0	0.00
25.6 another wicket goes- again they have lost wickets in quick succession. Borren attempted a cut shot but it was probably roo full and he gets a edge onto his stumps 85/5
HJC Mol	st †Smith b Rogers	4	18	22	0	0	18.18
31.1 he persists with the tactic of coming down the wicket and it has cost him. Mol was looking to drive over mid on but he was beaten in the flight and was stranded mid-pitch as Smith flicked off the bails. Pretty unnecessary shot in the situation 97/6
J Smits*†	run out (Nel/Rogers)	2	7	11	0	0	18.18
33.4 from Rogers, mix-up and the captain is gone after playing the ball to fine- leg, there was hesitation and the throw to the non-striker's end left Smits stranded 101/7
Mudassar Bukhari	c Watson b Blain	1	5	4	0	0	25.00
34.5 what a catch to get rid of Bukhari! A short ball was edged behind where Watson dived to his right to take a fantastic one-handed catch, supurb effort! 105/8
E Schiferli	not out	5	23	13	1	0	38.46

PM Seelaar	b Nel	0	5	6	0	0	0.00
39.2 again he plays back to a full delivery but this time he loses his off stump to bring a close to the innings 117/10
