2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 6 New Zealand v Netherlands 9/10 1900hrs @ Rajiv Gandhi Stadium

[NYRB]

thats a beautiful drive from Engelbrecht for 4

 

[HK_Hawk]

Ironically, it was just a few moments ago the commentators were mentioning that if the Dutch wanted to transform into a true cricketing powerhouse then they have to start converting these 50s into 100s... right on cue, Ackermann throws away his wicket. That was more Australian-like

 

[NYRB]

Scotty Edwards take a bow! Back to back boundaries off Santner

 

[NYRB]

Santners radar been a bit off tonight.

 

[NYRB]

Damn I jinxed it.

 

[NYRB]

1 shot too many from Scott Edwards.

 

[NYRB]

The game situation meant Edwards had no option though.

 

[NYRB]

We need to set up a petition 'Scotty Edwards to play in the BBL'.

Im sure many fans in Australia will sign up for that.

 

[NYRB]

Scotty Edwards was filthy with that shot

 

[NYRB]

Edwards always has his heart on his sleeves.

 

[NYRB]

lovely offside cut for 4 from Engelbrecht

 

[NYRB]

Does Engelbrecht still believe?

 

[NYRB]

Engelbrecht seems a bit of a better bat than a number 7.

 

[NYRB]

Problem for the Dutch today is the top 6 all got starts but none of them went on with it.

 

[NYRB]

van der Merwe is dropped off Santners bowling

 

[HK_Hawk]

So, watching Ackermann throwing his wicket away with a stupid reverse sweep didn't deter Humperdinck. He must of been upset when he was dropped so then tried to get himself stumped. lol

 

[NYRB]

van de Merwe is a poor mans number 8.

He literally has 3 consecutive chances in a row.........horror batting show

 

[HK_Hawk]

I'm gob-smacked. I cannot believe he has gone and played ANOTHER F**KING reverse sweep. That is truly brain dead cricketing from the Dutch this evening.

about him.

 

[NYRB]

If you put Ryan Klein in a North Melbourne guernsey , you wouldnt have noticed a difference. He is a carbon copy look-a-like.

 

[NYRB]

The Dutch taking lessons of reverse sweeping from Alex Carey I see.

It really isnt a percentage shot is it?

 

[HK_Hawk]

Yeah, why not AGAIN, Humperdinck... it's worked so beautifully so far for your team tonight. This is like watching that ridiculous test where the Aussie batters all committed to sweeping the Indian bowlers until they got themselves out.

 

[HK_Hawk]

Much better from Humperdinck. Put away the reverse sweep, this is not the wicket for it. Has looked better since, pushing singles and the odd good shot. Much, much better. Keep it up.

 

[HK_Hawk]

Klein has also played reasonably well in his short stint so far.

Klein has also played reasonably well in his short stint so far.

Reckon could make a case for him to be promoted ahead of van de Merwe
