[Kweek]

to drunk to explain it all..lets just say Holland is a province of holland 2 actually, the main 2.

go Holland, Kervezee looks good pity not to get his 1st ODI 50.
Go dutchies.

I was suprised that Canada came so close to taking this game of the Netherlands. Bagai, Chumney and Maxwell all batted very well but once again that man ten Doeschate made the game his own with two top order wickets to give him the figures of 2/43 off 10 overs. Should be an interesting tournament.

Bermuda batting first against Canada, currently 38/2 after 7.1 overs

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Canada won by five wickets with 13 balls to spare. Ashish Bagai finished 58* and Sunil Dhaniram smashed 63 from 42 balls.

 

[Steulen]

Grumble...

You go on a holiday for a few weeks and immediately CW forgets about minnow cricket. These`matches are official ODI's and this thread should be stickied.

The Netherlands going well so far with two wins, Ten Doeschate the man of the moment.
Today it's Canada vs. Bermuda...I say: wooden spoon battle.

 

[Perm]

An oversight on James behalf I'm sure that's all it was.

Bermuda 178/9
S Mukuddem 57
GR Codrington 4/33, H Osinde 3/22

Canada 179/7
AM Samad 39
K Hurdle 3/52

 

[Kweek]

i'm not so sure...

Canada 223-8 (50.0 overs)

Holland to bat, will be interesting, I fancy our chances

 

[Steulen]

CricInfo not updating at the moment, but the Dutch are a good batting side and should win this.

 

[Kweek]

3:13 PM We've been told that the target is 205, but I'm not yet sure whether that is the par score or the target.

But the players are back on the field, with de Grooth and van Nierop opening for The Netherlands.

3:01 PM The covers are now definitively off, and if there is no further rain the Dutch innings will begin at 15:15, in 15 minutes' time. The innings will be reduced to 42 overs, and we're currently waiting for a revised par score.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Chasing 205.

Dutch openers struggling v Bhatti.

 

[Kweek]

116/4
after 27 overs
Van Bunge 25*
van Troost 31*
Ten Doeschate 38

if they stay in and bat sensible, I predict a win.

edit: and van Troost goes for 34 :/
120/5 oeps.
a VCC'er and a ex-VCC at the crease...go Voorburg

 

[Kweek]

Total 8 wkts, 37.5 overs 175

van bunge gone on 52
Smits and Stelling in...
32 needed of 4 over :S

 

[Kweek]

Smith gone

Jonkman in...
you better have learned something in SA

whats weird...they lose 8 overs...and 18 runs by rain..weird imho

 

[Kweek]

Willy We Won!!!!

[Steulen]

What a thriller...excellent win, lower order stood up to the challenge.

Dutch win the Tri-Series!

Ah Damn, Been wanting Canada to win but the Dutch really are coming along as a good little cricket side.

Or not. Their bowling really is no better than when Tharanga and Jayasuriya mauled them for 440-odd in Amstelveen six months ago, it's just that Canada and Bermuda don't have the cricketers to exploit it. They're a bit more professional than the other associates, but lack the talent (and pace bowling) to be any serious threat.

 

[Kweek]

on another note Reekers and Schiferli are back into training, which is very good news, they'll be fit before the world cup.
Schiferli will be a massive boast for our bowling and with Jonkman getting better and stronger/faster everyday, we're heading for a decent bowling side for a change, esp since De Leede is in such a gun bowling form(elas batting is letting him down...and he hasnt been lucky tbh)

 

[Steulen]

Damn. Thought it was just a double round robin. Anyway....clear favourites

Good to see a young fast(-ish) bowler doing well. Kweek, is Jonkman the one you said wouldn't be ready for international cricket when we last spoke on msn?
