Slower short of length delivery, Myburgh mistimes the pull to long-on and it goes straight to van Beek. Leicher races back for the second but the throw from van Beek goes to the striker's end, Edwards collects it cleanly and catches Myburgh well short of the crease. Willem Myburgh run out (Logan van Beek/Scott Edwards) 4(4)

Bas de Leede to Ruben Trumpelmann, out Ruben Trumpelmann Run Out!! Trumpelmann has been sold down the river. That's poor from Leicher. Trumpelmann had to be there because of his hitting prowess but Leicher runs him out. Slower back of a length delivery, Trumpelmann is through the pull early and misses, the ball hits him on the rib and drops to ground, Leicher takes a start and then aborts, Trumpelmann is too far down and Bas de Leede runs forward, collects the ball and runs to the striker's end to remove the bails. Trumpelmann does not even try to get back in. Ruben Trumpelmann run out (Bas de Leede) 9(8) [6s-1]

Bas de Leede to Ruben Trumpelmann, SIX, massive! That's gone a mile. Full and right in the slot, Trumpelmann gives everything and connects it off the meat, the ball sails over cow corner and travels 92 meters. Namibia need plenty more of this..

Fred Klaassen to Zane Green, out Caught by Michael Levitt!! Namibia continue to lose wickets.. Green tries to repeat the reverse lap but holes out this time. This is a good length ball and it is pace off, Green is early into the shot and gets it off the toe-end, the ball travels to sweeper cover where Levitt takes a simple catch. Zane Green c Michael Levitt b Fred Klaassen 9(10) [4s-1]

Fred Klaassen to Zane Green, FOUR, nice improvisation from Green. Not off the middle but effective. Slower ball around off, Green goes for the reverse lap and gets it off the under-edge, the ball races away fine
17
Bas de Leede to Ruben Trumpelmann, leg byes, 1 run, that was close! Netherlands still have both their reviews intact. Slower ball, angled in and Trumpelmann crouches a bit, swipes across the line and misses, struck on the thigh pad and ball-tracking showed it to be clipping the top of leg-stump

W
Bas de Leede to Smit, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! Another huge wicket for the Netherlands. Smit had just gotten into his elements by smashing van der Merwe for a couple of sixes but he departs soon after. Second wicket for Bas de Leede. This was not short nor wide for Smit to play the late cut, he misses and the ball brushes the off-stump on the way to Edwards. The contact was hard enough to dislodge one bail. Smit b Bas de Leede 22(15) [4s-1 6s-2]

Roelof van der Merwe to Smit, SIX, back to back sixes. This was a poor delivery and Smit does not miss out. Drifts in and lands in the arc near leg-stump, Smit gets his front leg out of the way and gives himself the space to have a clean swing of the bat, sends it sailing over wide long-on
15.4

Roelof van der Merwe to Smit, SIX, smashed! Much needed six for Namibia. van der Merwe floats it up and lands it full, but there was width on offer and that allowed Smit to extend his arms, lofts it down the ground and just clears the rope

W
Logan van Beek to Loftie-Eaton, out Caught by Roelof van der Merwe!! This is a massive moment. Loftie-Eaton was the set batter and needed to bat deep. But he holes out looking for the big shot. Logan van Beek, after going for runs against Pakistan, is making an impact today. He was brought back for a wicket and he delivers. Rolls his fingers across and does not offer pace, Loftie-Eaton clears his front leg and heaves to the leg-side, gets more height than distance, van der Merwe settles at long-on and reverse cups it safely. Loftie-Eaton c Roelof van der Merwe b Logan van Beek 42(38) [4s-1 6s-2]

Roelof van der Merwe to Smit, FOUR, bad delivery and Smit puts it away. 82.4ks short and outside off, Smit waits and cracks it behind square on the off-side, splitting backward point and short third perfectly

W
Bas de Leede to Gerhard Erasmus, out Caught by Aryan Dutt!! Bas de Leede strikes in his first over! The dangerous Erasmus departs. Short of length, Erasmus spots the length and pulls hard. Doesn't get the necessary elevation and Dutt times his jump perfectly at midwicket to take a good overhead catch. Erasmus was looking in good touch and his knock comes to a premature end. De Leede is pumped up. Gerhard Erasmus c Aryan Dutt b Bas de Leede 18(9) [4s-2 6s-1]

Timm van der Gugten to Gerhard Erasmus, FOUR, another boundary! Slower ball into the deck, Erasmus miscues the pull as he fetches it from outside off. But he gets enough wood to clear the midwicket fielder inside the circle and the ball has the legs to run away to the fence. 16 runs off the over

Timm van der Gugten to Gerhard Erasmus, FOUR, Timm van der Gugten serves width outside off, pace off as well. Erasmus spots it, waits on the back foot and cuts through backward point

Colin Ackermann to Loftie-Eaton, FOUR, Loftie-Eaton moves leg-side to force this length ball through the off-side. The ball spins away, trims the outside edge and goes fine to the third man fence

Colin Ackermann to Loftie-Eaton, SIX, good use of the feet! Loftie-Eaton shimmies down, moves leg-side in the process and gets to the pitch of the ball. Doesn't quite middle the loft but he's muscled it over long-off

W
Logan van Beek to Jan Frylinck, out Caught by Scott Edwards!! Logan van Beek comes back to break the fifty partnership. Over the wicket, short of length ball, Frylinck is a bit early to swing his bat across the line. All he manages is a faint under-edge and it's an easy catch for the Netherlands captain. Jan Frylinck c Scott Edwards b Logan van Beek 30(26) [4s-3 6s-1]

Colin Ackermann to Jan Frylinck, 1 run, makes room and chops this length ball to deep extra cover. Fifty partnership
8.4
Colin Ackermann to Loftie-Eaton, 1 run, dropped and a missed run-out chance off the same ball! Loftie-Eaton shapes to reverse-hit and miscues off the top-edge. Bas De Leede moves back to his right from cover, stays side-on but is on the move and puts down the chance. After that, there's a run-out chance as well at the bowler's end but the bowler fails to collect it cleanly. It was a wide throw as well from de Leede

Colin Ackermann to Jan Frylinck, FOUR, much-needed breakthrough for Namibia. Fraction short, Frylinck stays back, bends his back leg a bit and pulls through backward square leg. The man in the deep runs across and dives to his left but to no avail

Colin Ackermann to Jan Frylinck, FOUR, 92.3kph, Frylinck moves leg-side to access the off-side. Ackermann bowls it on the shorter side and the left-handed batter carves it over cover. One bounce and into the fence. 11 runs off the final over of the powerplay and it's time for a drink

Colin Ackermann to Loftie-Eaton, SIX, that's a no-look loft! Tossed up, full and in the slot, Loftie-Eaton backs away and looks towards the ground as he bludgeons it straight down the ground
5.2
Colin Ackermann to Loftie-Eaton, no run, Loftie-Eaton gets down low to sweep and is struck on the front pad. The Dutch appeal for lbw and umpire Adrian Holdstock turns it down. Scott Edwards reviews it though. Is it going down with the angle? Or is it straightening? UltraEdge confirms no under-edge. Over to ball-tracking and it's clipping the leg-stump (umpire's call). The Netherlands keep their review

Fred Klaassen to Jan Frylinck, SIX, 116.2kph, overpitched delivery, Frylinck gets under it and swings hard to loft it over the non-striker. It's right off the meat of the bat and Frylinck poses for the photographs. Why would he bowl off-speed deliveries when the ball is swinging?

Fred Klaassen to Jan Frylinck, FOUR, Klaassen becomes greedy. Bowls full on leg, expecting the ball to swing away. The ball goes on straight and Frylinck flicks it beautifully between mid-on and midwicket

Aryan Dutt to Louren Steenkamp, out Stumped!! Aryan Dutt strikes! 94.6kph, quicker and shorter, Steenkamp shimmies down the track to force it through the off-side. He's nowhere close to the pitch of the ball. Looks to punch it through the covers and gets beaten on the outside edge as the ball goes on straight. Scott Edwards collects the ball and breaks the stumps quickly to effect a stumping. The batter played for the spin and got into an awkward position. Louren Steenkamp st Scott Edwards b Aryan Dutt 6(6) [4s-1]

Logan van Beek to Louren Steenkamp, FOUR, straighter line from Logan van Beek and Steenkamp puts it away. Closes the bat-face at the right time to tuck it to fine leg. There's the first boundary of the innings

Aryan Dutt to Jan Frylinck, 1 run, taps this length ball in front of point and the batters scamper across for a risky single. In fact, there's an umpire review for run-out at the keeper's end. Scott Edwards breaks the stumps even before collecting the ball. However, just one bail is lit up. The other one hasn't been removed. And by the time he removes the other bail with the ball in his hands, a diving Steenkamp makes his ground. Steenkamp survives
