While the Vedic scriptures laud about Lord Shiva’s all-consuming Tandava dance, the history pages of World T20s will hold Stephan Myburg’s performance against Ireland in the same regard when it comes to T20 games.

The Dutchman showed no mercy and smashed his way to a 17 ball 50, which was the second fastest in T20Is, and helped Netherland chase 190 in just 13.5 overs.

Netherlands’s hopes for qualifying for the World T20 2014 looked all but dismantled when Ireland posted a grand target of 190 which the Dutch had to chase down within 14.1 overs if they were to qualify for the World Cup.

And they were up to the task as each and every batsman came with only one intention mind, to hit, hit and hit. Ultimately, it worked as the baton of Myburgh’s onslaught was aptly carried and continued by Tom Cooper, who smacked a 15 ball 45 to carry his team over the line in 13.5 overs.
