Tag: Netherlands vs Pakistan

ROTTERDAM: Pakistan fast bowler Haris Rauf stated that bowling with a new ball was a challenge for him after he proved himself as a strike option for the team following his brilliant performance in the second ODI against the Netherlands.

Haris along with Naseem Shah, who is currently on his first ODI assignment, led the charge for Pakistan against the Netherlands in the absence of the team’s main strike bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi after he was rested due to an injury.

“Previously I used to bowl with a slightly old ball, but I bowled with a new ball in the series against Australia and here as well. It was a new challenge for me and I was trying to utilize it effectively,” said Haris in an interview given to this reporter.

Commenting on playing conditions, the right-arm pacer believed that the drastic contrast in the Netherlands’ conditions from that of Pakistan added to his learning experience.

“Conditions were very different here, the ground was soft, the ball was getting a grip in the wicket and the wicket was slow, you get to learn a lot from these things,” he added.

Naseem, on the other hand, stated that although he had been a regular member of Pakistan’s Test team yet the feelings were altogether different here as it was his debut ODI series.

“Although I have played Tests but the feelings during the debut are unmatched, Conditions were excellent here and it was an exciting ODI debut for me,” said Naseem.

Commenting on the playing conditions in the Netherlands, the young speedster stated that although the pitch was grassy, the ball was coming nicely onto the bat initially.

“The aura of playing at the international level was very different from league cricket,” he said. “Although the pitch looked grassy, the ball was slowing a bit before reaching the batsman. The ball was getting stuck and swinging simultaneously.” he maintained.

It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistan claimed an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match ODI series against the Netherlands after their comprehensive seven-wicket victory yesterday in the second ODI.

Haris Rauf produced sensational bowling figures of 3/16 while Naseem claimed two wickets to propel the collapse of the Dutch team in the second ODI. Whereas, Mohammad Nawaz also bagged three wickets with Shadab Khan and Mohammad Wasim making a scalp each to restrict the hosts to 186.

ROTTERDAM: Pakistan’s young middle-order batter Salman Ali Agha revealed that wicket-keeper batter Mohammad Rizwan guided him during the match-winning partnership against the Netherlands in the second ODI.

Salman, who scored a magnificent half-century in his second ODI, credited wicket-keeper batter Rizwan for offering the guidance to build up his astonishing knock.

“Definitely he’s our senior player and one of the best players of Pakistan across all the formats. So, he was guiding me a lot like how to play, how to tackle some specific deliveries. So, his guidance helped me a lot,” Salman stated.

The right-handed batter while responding to a question regarding his plan regarding whether he will be targeting to score a century or a half-century, asserted that the team’s requirement would be the topmost priority for him.

“Thrive would be to play as I played in this match, according to the team’s demand. There is no doubt that a player has his individual milestone in his mind but the team is the top most priority,” Salman shared.

Salman then went on to comment on the conditions of the Netherlands and shared that the wicket is quite slow and offers a spongy bounce which make it difficult for a batter to hit the ball.

“The wicket is here is on a slower side and offers a spongy bounce. So, if a bowler bowls a length delivery, so it sponge bounces making it difficult to hit the ball. But, I tried to take on the challenge with a positive mindset and play my shots and thanks to Almighty it paid off,” he concluded.

It is pertinent to mention here that Salman scored his first fifty in ODI cricket in his second match, put on a match-winning 92-run partnership with Rizwan and propelled Pakistan to seal a resounding seven-wicket victory over the Netherlands and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series.

ROTTERDAM: Pakistan captain Babar Azam led the solid foundation after a dismal start while the wicket-keeper batter Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Ali Agha displayed grit with unbeaten fifties as Pakistan thumped the Netherlands by seven wickets in the second ODI.

Set to chase a mere 187, Pakistan comfortably steered to victory in the 34th over for the loss of three wickets.

The touring side were off to a dismal start to their run chase as they lost both their openers at a skimpy total of 11 in the fourth over.

Following the early horror, skipper Babar and wicket-keeper batter Rizwan stood up and anchored the run chase with a valiant 88-run partnership before the former fell briefly after amassing his half-century.

Babar scored 57 off 65 deliveries, laced with seven boundaries, while Rizwan held his ground and embarked a match-winning partnership with Salman.

The pair took on the Dutch bowlers and maintained the momentum in their favour as they scored runs at a decent pace and eventually led Pakistan to a resounding victory in the 34th over.

Rizwan top-scored for the side with an unbeaten 69 off 82 balls with the help of six boundaries and a six, while Salman scored an unbeaten 50 off a mere 35 balls.

The right-handed batter smashed five boundaries and two sixes – out of which, one came on the penultimate delivery of the match, which saw him amassing his first half-century in white-ball cricket.

For the Netherlands, Vivian Kingma impressed as he bagged two wickets, while Aryan Dutt made one scalp.

The Netherlands, after opting to bat first, could not set a commendable target for Pakistan as the side bundled out for 186 in the 45th over despite the fifties from Bas de Leede and Tom Cooper.

Batting first, the home side were off to a dismal start as they lost three wickets for a mere eight runs in the third over.

Cooper and de Leede then anchored the proceedings for the hosts as they added a valiant 109 runs for the fourth wicket.

Right-handed batter Cooper, who enjoyed a second life after Naseem Shah overstepped while dismissing him caught and ball, went on to smash a brilliant half-century before Nawaz removed him in the 26th over for 66. He faced 74 balls and smashed nine boundaries and two sixes.

The hosts then again began to lose wickets at an alarming rate while de Leede held his ground firm and kept the scoreboard ticking single-handedly.

Besides de Leede and Cooper, only all-rounder Logan van Beek could amass the double figures as the rest of the batters failed to contribute significantly.

Right-handed batter de Leede top-scored for the side with a valiant knock of 89 runs off 120 deliveries, laced with two boundaries and three sixes before Haris removed him in the 45th over.

For Pakistan, Haris and Nawaz bagged three wickets each, while Naseem claimed two. Shadab Khan and Mohammad Wasim Jr, on the other hand, made one scalp each.

PAKISTAN vs NETHERLANDS (1st INNING)

ROTTERDAM: Netherlands won the toss and elected to bat first in the second ODI of the three-match series against Pakistan, here on Thursday.

Playing XIs:

Pakistan: Babar Azam (c), Shadab Khan (vc), Fakhar Zaman, Imam-ul-Haq, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Agha Salman, Khushdil Shah, Mohammad Wasim, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Mohammad Nawaz,

Netherlands:  Scott Edwards (c & wk), Vikramjit Singh, Wesley Barresi, Logan van Beek, Tom Cooper, Aryan Dutt, Viv Kingma, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Tim Pringle, Max O’Dowd.

ROTTERDAM: Pakistan’s star with the bat of the first ODI against the Netherlands, Fakhar Zaman admitted that the touring side could have played better against the hosts.

Fakhar, who led the charge for a competitive total for Pakistan with a magnificent century, spoke to this reporter and here and acknowledged that the Green Shirts could have played better while emphasizing different conditions resulting in the slow start for the touring side.

“No doubt, we could have played better than this. The ball was seeming at the start a bit too much and the Dutch bowlers too did exceptionally well. So, credit goes to them also,” Fakhar said.

“We were facing difficulty in the start as the ball was seeming quite a lot and there were spinners as well. So the plan with Babar was that we should not give away wickets no matter how few the runs were,” he revealed.

The left-handed opener then went on to comment on the team’s performance and the narrow victory against the Netherlands and emphasized that no team is weak in international cricket while asserting that players did not feel that the match was slipping away from their grip at any stage.

“At no point did we feel that the match was slipping away. This is cricket and you can’t relax until the last ball, Netherlands played well but the match was in our hands,” Fakhar asserted.

“No team is weak, three of their players were dismissed early but the partnership remained brilliant for them,” he concluded.

It is apropos to mention here that the full-strength Pakistan side managed to hold on the Netherlands by a bare margin of 16 runs in the first ODI of the three-match series.

Fakhar was the pick of the batters as he smashed a magnificent 109 off as many balls, laced with 12 boundaries and a six.
