NED-XI BEAT SPAIN WITH A BALL TO SPARE!
Noteworthy performances: First innings- Daniel Doyle Calle 63(24)| Vivian Kingma 2/32 Second innings- Sikander Zulfiqar 92(21)| Hamza Saleem Dar 3/27
WHAT A GAME! You come across high octane thrillers like this very rarely! After the first innings, that saw fire works from the openers- Muhammad Babar who was amazing upfront, taking on the new ball and Daniel Doyle Calle, who played a captain's knock and led from the front, scoring a sublime 63 of just 24 balls. Kingma, was the pick of the bowlers, who often started his overs in a wayward manner, but somehow knew how to finish. While, Clayton Floyd, who was more successful today, couldn't complete his over after an exemplary start! Saleem Dar, played an absolute blinder and scored a highly impressive and dynamic 54 of 13 balls, showcasing his batting prowess, which he will later transfer to his bowling performances!
Everybody will talk about Zulfiqar's innings, and rightfully so, but let's not forget Verhagen's contributions, that would easily be overshadowed by a knock as scintillating of Zulfiqar's. Zulfiqar, displayed shots in all corners of the ground. He didn't have to find gaps, because depositing it in the stands, was his only motive! 43 of 2 overs, and he pulled it off! One of the craziest innings I've ever seen!! Saleem Dar was extremely good with the ball, picking up 3 wickets for 27 runs, translating his form with the bat to the ball!!
Overall a phenomenal game and we hope we see another nail biting thriller like this in the finals of the ECC!!
