Match 9 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will see Sri Lanka take on the Netherlands. Simonds Stadium in Geelong will play host to this exciting Group A fixture on Thursday.
Sri Lanka bounced back to beat the United Arab Emirates (UAE) comprehensively in their second clash after losing to Namibia in their opening encounter. The big win over the UAE has helped them boost their net run rate and keep their Super 12 hopes alive.
After being put in to bat first, Sri Lanka finished their innings on 152/8, thanks to a brilliant knock from Pathum Nissanka (74) at the top of the order. The bowlers then stepped up and knocked over UAE on 73 to win the game by 79 runs. Dushmantha Chameera and Wanindu Hasaranga picked up three wickets apiece to help their side win the game. They will now be eager to repeat their performance while facing the Netherlands in their next clash.
The Netherlands, on the other hand, are on a roll in the T20 World Cup 2022 so far. They have played two games so far, winning both. They beat the UAE in their opening fixture and carried forward the winning momentum to beat Namibia in a hard-fought contest in their next clash.
The bowlers did a fine job of restricting Namibia to 121 at the end of their 20 overs. Bas de Leede picked up two wickets for the Dutch side. On the back of contributions from Vikramjit Singh (39), Max O'Dowd (35), and Bas de Leede (30*), the Netherlands got across the line with three balls to spare.
