Netherlands team lost their important wickets so win is not possible at the moment. England team will definitely win today's match by a huge margin, but unfortunately they will not be able to qualify for the World Cup. Moreover, today's match was batted well from the start to the end, England scored 339 runs due to the departure of the team. And they are continuing the bowling performance nicely and at the moment England bowlers are bowling dynamically due to which Netherlands lost 8 wickets. Having lost important wickets, Netherlands are now on the verge of losing the match, still they need to score a lot of runs to win the match. And I think today's match Netherlands will not be able to meet this target and will lose with England by a huge margin.
Finally the game has been ended between both teams and result of this game is that England team won this game by good difference of runs. Today game, England won the toss and chose first bat. B.Stockes performance was outstanding in this game. He scored 108 runs in 84 balls adhe hitted six 4s and six 6s. Other batsman Dawid Malan scored 87 runs in 74 balls and hitted ten 4s and two 6s. In bowling side, A.Rashid and M.Ali both these bowler took each three wickets of Netherlands team. Overall England team set a 339 runs target to Netherlands and Netherlands team performed very bad and entire team dismissed at 179 runs.

Netherlands lost by 160 runs to England today by a big margin. From the start of the match, it was clear that the Netherlands would never win the match against England. The way England performed in today's match, if they could have performed in the previous matches, then it would have been possible for them to survive in the semi-finals.
England is not in a good position in this tournament but everyone knows that they are a good team. It was already known how the condition of today's match will be. Because Netherlands is far behind compared to England. In terms of wins, both teams have won two matches. Netherlands did fairly well as a team. But to fight against top class cricket teams, there is no option to improve their standard of play. This team has not yet had the experience of playing a target of 339 runs. On the field we saw the same situation as Netherlands lost all their wickets for just 179 runs. Teja Nidamanuru performed well in this team. He scored the highest runs in the team. He remained unbeaten despite his personal collection of 41.

England makes 339. Thanks to Dawid Malan (dude's shots go like rocket), Stokes and Woakes (nice rhyme there) that they manage to get this score, I have questions on not-out given on Stoke's lbw.

There was spectator holding sign, 'We best Bangladesh!' — it was so funny. You can add Netherlands too, pretty sure they ain't gonna able to chase this total. England's achievement this WC to beat bottom tier teams.



Yeah I expected Stokes to fire up after his half century and that his what he did, got his century in just 84 balls. Woakes got his half century too while being a support on the other side. 340 is not an easy target that can be chased by the Duth unless they have someone like Maxwell. They might have someone with some similar caliber in the next World Cup.

After winning today England has to win it's next match. If not then they are out of the Championship trophy. This type of game that was required by them earlier. Sadly they are out of the semifinal contention for the fourth slot.
It will be very difficult for Netherlands to beat the target of 340 runs as Netherlands do not have an aggressive batsman like Maxwell. Also, England will not miss Maxwell's multiple catches like in Afghanistan. Moreover, there is no chance for Netherlands to win today's match as they lost four of their valuable top order batsmen before 100 runs. So for now Netherlands is batting to reduce the margin of defeat. But it is also not possible to say that there is no chance for Netherlands to win, any kind of chances can happen in cricket with good batting.
England's 340-run target was put into bat by the opening pair of the Netherlands, who started fairly well. After losing two wickets in a row, the Netherlands were under some pressure as Barresi and Sybrand developed a fairly good partnership but were both dismissed in between. Then again the new players came into the team and again the Netherlands were under the pressure of runs. Netherlands' current score is 101 for 5 in 25 overs. Their game looks like Netherlands will lose today's match by a big margin.
Netherlands lost by 160 runs to England today by a big margin. From the start of the match, it was clear that the Netherlands would never win the match against England.

England team won the match by 160 runs. England team played very well and made 339 runs in 50 overs with fall of 9 wickets but Netherland team could make only 179 runs . Ben Stokes is announced as player of the match who played magnificent inning of 108 runs in 84 balls , David Malan was run out by making 87 runs in 74 balls and Woakes made 51 runs in 45 balls. No player played well from Netherland side. 
Finally England were able to win a match after a very lean patch, when the match started, i was not confident how England would perform even against Netherlands, but Ben Stokes played an incredible innings even when their middle order collapsed once again. This might be the last time this England team would play together as majority will be calling it quits after the world cup because of their terrible performance.

Moen Ali and Adil Rashid took 3-3 wickets .Moen Ali gave 42 runs in 8.2 overs and Adil Rashid gave 54 runs in 8 overs . David  Willey did excellent bowling and took 2 wickets by giving only 19 runs in 7 overs.

This match didn't did anything good for both the teams. For England, it is still not clear whether they will be able to qualify for the champions trophy in 2025. And after losing so many matches early on, a consolation win against Netherlands is not going to bring any joy for them. For Netherlands, this is their 4th defeat in the last 5 matches and they have only one match (against India) remaining now. If they had won one more match, then it was possible for them to qualify for the Champions trophy in 2025. Now they need to defeat India, in order to do so.

Cricket is a round ball game so just as ten good balls are enough to turn the game, a good innings by one batsman is enough to turn the game. Afghanistan bowled seven good balls but one of Australia's batsmen did well and the win went in Australia's favor. Afghanistan first took 7 wickets for 89 runs and at that time Afghanistan deserved the win but some mistakes by Afghanistan cricketers made the match slip away from them. Maybe the Afghan cricketers should ask how many catches a batsman misses makes him play better because the way they took Maxwell's catch looks like they haven't practiced fielding before. Several times when they caught Maxwell they did not catch but they threw the match away. Just good bowling and batting is not enough to win a match but good fielding is enough which Afghanistan could not do.

These sort of mistakes are going to be very costly for Afghanistan. Already they are dealing with the issue of freezing of funds after the Taliban takeover. A win against Australia would have been earth-shattering at this point. But they wasted a really good opportunity yesterday. Anyway, now we are set for an exciting semifinal match between Australia and South Africa. Given the recent form of both the teams, I would say that Australia has a better chance of win. BTW, India needs to wait for some more time, to find out who will be their opponents in the semi-finals.
I am expecting that there will be a good fight in the semi-final matches. Each team has completed around eight matches but all but a few matches have been one sided wins. So I didn't have much fun watching the game in most of the matches but we are expecting some high voltage matches in the semi finals. If Australia's opponent is South Africa and if India's opponent is New Zealand or Pakistan, then the most exciting matches of the tournament will be the semi-final matches. India Pakistan matches are not as much as before but still I hope India and Pakistan will play semi-final. Although the equation is very difficult for Pakistan, Pakistan still has a good chance to play the semi-finals.
This is a true but Pakistan can doing good effort to go for play semi final. We all wish that the match between Pakistan and India should be in the semi-final and that Pakistan should beat India and reach the final and make us all happy.If Sri Lanka wins against England in tomorrow's match, it will be a very happy thing for Pakistan. Because Pakistan will reach the semi-final and Pakistan will face India. And every Pakistani wants that Pakistan reach semi-final and compete with India. We watch the Pakistan match because of which we are not interested in other matches.

The Dutch needs some serious introspection. They qualified to this tournament by fluke, by overtaking another associate nation (Scotland) by sheer luck. They did well by winning matches against South Africa and Bangladesh. But the last few matches have been horrendous for them. And there is simply no excuse for what happened today. First they let the match out of their grasp by allowing Stokes and Woakes to settle in. And then in this match also the running between the wickets was horrific. The way Wesley Barresi got himself out was just pathetic.

Naturally, Netherlands are under a lot of pressure after losing some early wickets, but Scott Edwards and Teja Nidamanura are batting brilliantly at the moment and if this pair can hold on, England will be in trouble. England's spinners are not doing very well with the ball as these two batsmen hit sixes to prove it. Adil Rashid in particular is not in much rhythm in this match rather his ball is getting more runs in Adil Rashid's over than other bowling.
I don't think Scott Edwards and Teja Nidamanuru will survive on the pitch today, as they seem to be struggling to face England's bowlers. Their required run rate is more than double the current run rate. By this they will be more under pressure then the Dutch players will try to play boundaries shots, and in this case their wicket will be also fallen.
They have only five wickets left and 17 overs to go from which they need 178 runs. Most of the up-order batsmen they had were already out. So I don't see any more hope for the Netherlands to win. If the Netherlands wins this match today then it will be one kind of magical match by them. Anyway after a long time we have seen a good performace from the England. Moreover they also need this victory. Even after the start of the match, I was confused that which team will win today. But after the end of England's batting innings, it is clear to think that England is going to win today

For everyone, this is a dead rubber fixer but Poor Poms are playing for their Champions Trophy qualification. They'll win tonight but automatic qualification is still at risk because they are not alone in this race as Bangbros and the Lankans are also competing for the last 2 positions.

NZ (WC semis slot) vs SL (CT qualification)
AUS vs BAN (CT qualification))
PAK (WC semis slot) vs ENG ((CT qualification) -We will witness an epic meltdown like the death of the ODI format Grin lol if England fails to qualify-.

And Party Pooper fixture for at least 1 test playing nation
IND vs NED (CT qualification)

Call me crazy but I think Netherlands will squeek out a win tomorrow vs England  Cheesy
No surprise here as Netherlands have already beaten South Africa. If Netherlands can beat England in today's game then England will drop down in the ICC ODI rankings as they are at the bottom of the points table. Netherlands will play well against England and if Netherlands can do this contest like South Africa, Bangladesh match then Netherlands can win.

England is the tournament worst, so no surprise at all I agree. England must win this though if they want to keep their rankings but Holland also want to be taken seriously. They just started batting, need to beat 339!!

I think actually the real game to watch is Netherlands India coming up after England. India already qualify to semi, will get weakest opponent, how will they play against Holland? Relaxed practice or serious warmup?

Maxwell is on the crease but the required run rate increasing after each over which will force him to play big shots against those bowlers. Now it's time to see how long Maxwell can face them and how well the Aussie tailenders can defend.

Oh hey again!
Maxwell proved wrong very badly. That was a superhero innings from Maxwell. Unexpected, brilliant, I am short of words. While everyone is talking about Maxwell, did you guys forget about Pat Cummins? His innings was the lowest contribution in terms of percentage. But he should be proud of himself. This guy played in proper test mentality because Maxwell was asking him just to face the balls. Maxwell wasn't expecting any runs from Cummins. This will remain in my memories for a long time.

Despite losing the wicket of Moeen Ali for 192 runs, Woakes and Stokes managed to build a massive partnership of 129 runs. Along with Stokes, Chris Woakes' performance was also very responsible. Woakes was out after collecting 51 runs off 45 balls.
After a long time, we have seen a good performance from England batsmen. England's middle order did not perform well. Due to the innings of Stokes, Woakes, and Malan, the England team can provide a huge target of 340 runs. I have no doubt that England will win the match. If they win this match, England will be able to go to the eighth place in the points table.
