Mashrafe Mortaza to Seelaar, 1 run, just short of point. Short and wide, there to be hit and Seelaar does so but find backward point to absolute perfection. A yard either side would have been four
16.5
Mashrafe Mortaza to Seelaar, no run, what an over this is so far. Good length outside off, Seelaar tries to work it down to third man but misses again
 

Pieter Seelaar. Mid-off is up.

 
16.4
Mashrafe Mortaza to van der Merwe, OUT, this time van der Merwe has to go. Another shortish delivery outside off that rises on him. He gets high on his toes to try and force it through the off side but the ball takes a feather off the outside edge and Rahim gleefully accepts

RE van der Merwe c †Mushfiqur Rahim b Mashrafe Mortaza 1 (4m 3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33
16.3
Mashrafe Mortaza to van der Merwe, no run, shortish delivery outside off, beaten.
16.2
Mashrafe Mortaza to TLW Cooper, 1 run, inside edge, just past the stumps. Drama. Shortish length outside off, the slowness of the wicket results in another edge. Smashed into the off stump that, but no movement at all from the bails
 

Hashmi: "Borren could have muscled more if he had played shot waiting for ball to come on to bat. Netherlands seriously has chance with Merwe in."

 
16.1
Mashrafe Mortaza to van der Merwe, 1 run, good length delivery on off, dabbed down to third man for a run
 

Van der Merwe. Clutch situation, who can hold their nerve? Tom Cooper held back for this particular situation. Mortaza.

Kajal: "Such a clever and mature batting from Netherlands. I strongly feel they should be a part of top8."
