RIP World Cup Super League 2020-23 (World Cup Qualifier Jun 16 - Jul 9)

Great chance for Netherlands to take another full member scalp

 

[icyman]

Can the Dutch win here? If they do, puts enormous pressure on SRL, given that they play Zimbabwe and WI next. Really shaping up nicely here, this tournament

 

[pillowprocter]

Ahhh no

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Openers both gone for ducks

Great counterattack by Barresi and de Leede, hut Hasaranga has just started his spell

 

[pillowprocter]

Pretty sure NL have run 4 twice this innings. They're probably the best team in the tournament in running between the wickets, and capitalizing on fielder errors

And Barresi is giving him a smack

They seem to have taken the experience of losing 20/24 matches in the Super League really positively - as a learning experience. They can see what level they need to be at in order to compete. Particularly as a lot of these 'weaker' players in the squad have played in those matches. Really shows how valuable experience against stronger teams can be.

And there's an example of bad running

oh

 

[pillowprocter]

Hasaranga has just started his spell

and it begins

 

[pillowprocter]

Edwards needs to calm down. Swept his first 3 balls, almost got out on the 3rd one. Similar to Saqib Zulfiqar in the WI match.

 

[pillowprocter]

Swept his first 3 balls

...it's actually the only shot he has against spin

 

[wasteyouryouth]

they're so far ahead of the game they can bat Hasaranga out if necessary. Is Kumara injured too? I saw him go off.

I think for Hasaranga, you're just as likely to get out going back to defend as you are trying to shepherd the ball into a gap

that's true but there's no call to take risks, if necessary take 3 runs per over
