Logan van Beek to Josh Little, FOUR! How has that gone to the fence? Low full toss outside off, Little comes inside his crease and manages to play it fine down the leg side for a boundary. 6 needed off 3 balls.

Logan van Beek to Simi Singh, OUT! RUN OUT! Simi Singh's bat is in the air and he has to walk back! Is it the final nail in this chase? Slower ball which is back of a length around leg. Simi hits it through mid-wicket. He calls for two which is always going to be a risk. The throw at the keeper's end is a bit wide. Edwards does well to gather and whips the bails. The square leg umpire takes it upstairs. Replays find Simi Singh has failed to ground his bat and his willow is in the air when Edwards has whipped the bails.

46.5
Pieter Seelaar to Barry McCarthy, OUT! CAUGHT! Brilliant catch and skipper Seelaar has turned the game on its head. Pieter gives this one air and flight as he bowls it around off. McCarthy goes for the drive and hits it uppishly to the left of short extra cover. Lagan van Beek there dives and takes a very good catch. 2 wickets and just a run of the over. Can he finish it well?

46.2
Pieter Seelaar to Andy McBrine, OUT! LBW! Umpire's call on wickets hitting and the skipper's gamble to bring himself on has worked wonders. A drifter which pitches on middle and skids on. McBrine looks to flick but misses and gets hit on the pad. An appeal follows and the umpire takes his time before raising his finger. McBrine takes the review straightaway. Replay rolls in and Ultra Edge shows no involvement of bat. Time for the Ball Tracker and it shows the ball to be kissing the leg pole. Kissing enough to send McBrine back to the pavilion but save the review.

Brandon Glover to Andy McBrine, EDGED AND FOUR! Things going Ireland's way now. Good length ball on off, it nips in a bit and keeps low. McBrine looks to dab it behind point but it takes the inside edge and goes past the stumps and fine down the leg side. 12 off the over. Just what Ireland needed. 28 needed off 42 balls.

Brandon Glover to Simi Singh, FOUR! Crunching shot! Length ball around off, Simi comes down the track and takes it on the full. He slams it over cover for a boundary.

41.2
Logan van Beek to Andy McBrine, EDGED AND FOUR! A very fortuitous boundary for McBrine! Slower ball bowled into the surface outside off. McBrine looks to cut but gets a thick outside edge. It goes between slip and the keeper. Edwards dives but to no avail.

Logan van Beek to Simi Singh, FOUR! That is a brave shot from Singh! Consecutive boundaries for Ireland. Below 50 needed now. He skips down and gets to the pitch of it, lifts it over mid on for a boundary.

Brandon Glover to Andy McBrine, Edgy FOUR! Releases the pressure that was building. 7 from the over. 53 needed in the last 11. On off and on a length. McBrine opens the face of the bat, it goes off a thickish outside edge down to the third man fence.

Timm van der Gugten to Paul Stirling, OUT! TAKEN! There is the wicket Netherlands wanted and they are right back into this one. Stirling had to be the man for Ireland but he falls with a little more than 60 needed. This is full and outside off, Paul smashes it. He does so uppishly towards cover and the skipper, Seelaar takes a sharp catch there.

36.4
Timm van der Gugten to Simi Singh, FOUR! More fortunate runs but Ireland won't care. Things at the moment going their way. Singh steps out and also makes room. It is a full ball outside off. He looks to reach out for it but it goes off the inside edge down to the fine leg fence. The fielder runs to his right and dives but his effort goes in vain.

32.6
Bas de Leede to Paul Stirling, FOUR! Put away! Short and wide and asking to be hit. Stirling cuts it through point and it races away to the fence. The last ball spoils the over somewhat and the fifty run stand is up. A welcome partnership. Much-needed. They still have over 70 runs to chase down.

30.3
Saqib Zulfiqar to Paul Stirling, FOUR! That bounces just before the ropes and into the fence! Keeping Zulfiqar on probably was not the right move! On middle, this is swept hard, it goes for a one bounce boundary.

28.4
Saqib Zulfiqar to Paul Stirling, FOUR! Swept and swept away fine! Floated around leg, Stirling gets down on his knee and sweeps it through backward square leg for a boundary. Moves to 49 with that.

26.6
Brandon Glover to Simi Singh, FOUR! Simi Singh might have had his heart in his mouth for a moment there. Short and wide outside off, Simi Singh goes for the upper cut. There is a man at third man but he plays it fine of him and gets a boundary.

Logan van Beek to Paul Stirling, FOUR! Fantastic shot! Shortish around off, Stirling slaps his pull over mid-wicket for a boundary. A rare bad ball and Stirling punishes it.

21.6
Pieter Seelaar to Lorcan Tucker, OUT! LBW! The captain strikes! Floated delivery pitching on off and turning back in sharply. Tucker looks to defend but gets beaten by the turn. He misses it and gets hit right in front of the stumps. A huge appeal follows and the umpire raises his finger.

Brandon Glover to Paul Stirling, FOUR! Smacked! Shorter and outside off, this is flayed over point for a boundary. 50 up. Still a long way to go.

13.5
Brandon Glover to George Dockrell, OUT! TIMBER! The stand which was building slowly but nicely has been breached. Excellent from Glover. Keeps it on a length yet again. Dockrell makes the mistake of hanging back as he tries to block. The ball stays a touch low. Goes past the bat and hits the off pole. Netherlands back on top.

Brandon Glover to Paul Stirling, FOUR! Stirling finishes the over and Powerplay 1 with a bang! Short ball on middle and off, Stirling pulls it with power and confidence over mid-wicket for a boundary.

Logan van Beek to George Dockrell, FOUR! Glorious shot! Van Beek guilty of overpitching this around off. Dockrell is quick to pounce on it as he creams his drive through covers for a boundary.

Logan van Beek to Paul Stirling, FOUR! This is Stirling at his best! Full around off, Stirling leans forward and creams his drive through covers for a boundary.

2.4
Fred Klaassen to Harry Tector, OUT! LBW! The review is not enough to save Tector as he departs for a duck and Ireland are in big, big trouble here. They are three down with very little on the board. Netherlands are spitting venom and they look pumped for it. Good length delivery pitching on middle and off, it nips back in. Tector looks to defend but misses and gets hit on the front pad. A huge appeal follows and the umpire raises his finger. Stirling and Tector have a chat and Tector then signals the 'T'. Replay rolls in and Ball Tracker shows that the ball to be hitting the stumps on umpire's call. Ireland retain their review but Tector has to walk back to the pavilion.

1.4
Logan van Beek to Andy Balbirnie, OUT! CAUGHT! Van Beek strikes once again and Balbirnie's stay at the middle is a brief one. Netherlands are off to a rollicking start. Ireland in a spot of bother here. Their skipper has followed their former skipper back in the hut in quick succession. Short and wide outside off, it is a rare lose delivery from van Beek in this over. Balbirnie tries to free his arms. He goes for the cut but he does not keep his shot down. It goes uppishly straight to backward point. Max O'Dowd there makes no mistake and takes a sharp catch.

1.2
Logan van Beek to Andy Balbirnie, EDGED AND FOUR! The Irish skipper gets off the mark with some luck on his side. Good length delivery pitching on off, this moves away from Balbirnie. He looks to defend but the ball catches the outside edge and goes wide of diving Edwards and to the third man fence.
W
1.1
Logan van Beek to William Porterfield, OUT! LBW! Porterfield has departed as van Beek has struck gold with the very first ball. Scott Edwards will be a relieved man as his dropped catch has not proven to be very costly. Logan van Beek starts with a full ball pitching on middle and coming in to the batter. Porterfield looks to defend but misses and gets hit on the pad. A huge appeal follows and the umpire raises his finger.

Fred Klaassen to William Porterfield, EDGED AND FOUR! Another edge but this one goes right between the keeper and slip. Good length delivery around off and shaping away. Porterfield looks to defend but gets an outside edge. This time it goes wide of the keeper and away from slip to go to the third man fence. Nervy way to get off the mark but Porterfield and Ireladn are up and running.
