India walk the path of victory
Concerning the match, India after winning the toss and electing to bat first, put on a total of 179 runs on the board on the back of fifties from skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav. The only batter, who made his way back for a cheap score of 9, was KL Rahul as the batter refused to review an LBW appeal that was later found to be missing the stumps.
While the team India captain returned to the pavilion after contributing 53 runs, Kohli, who single-handedly secured a win for Rohit and his men, remained unbeaten in the end for 62 runs. Suryakumar, who joined the veteran in the middle, scored 51 runs and powered India to a mammoth total.
Regarding the chase, Netherlands failed to get off to a good start as expected and started to lose wickets right from the start. The team lost half of its men after putting just 62 runs on the board and looked in deep trouble.
Struggling to put on a fight against a fiery Indian bowling attack, Netherlands batters made only 123 runs on the board with Tim Pringle top scoring with the bat with 20 runs. India, on the other hand, would hope to carry on with the momentum and seal the match against South Africa to be played on Sunday as well.
