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.

The Netherlands keep their review
