1.6 overs (0 Run) A wicket-maiden to start with from Siraj! Bowled on a shortish length over off and angling in, Colin Ackermann gets right behind the line of the ball and blocks it out.

1.3 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mohammed Siraj strikes in his first over and as usual, India have an early wicket. Lovely delivery this, on a perfect length in the channel and gets it to swing away from the right-hander. Wesley Barresi tries to drive it through covers but it a loose shot and his feet go nowhere. The outside edge is found and KL Rahul does well to get down low to his right and pouch it safely. The replays confirm the same and Netherlands are already one down.
Is that out? The umpires send it upstairs to check if KL Rahul has taken it clearly or not. The replay clearly shows that the gloves are underneath the ball and it is the first wicket for India.
1.2 overs (0 Run) On the money! Good length on off, attacking the stumps, Wesley Barresi defends it under his eyeline.

Mohammed Siraj to share the attack.
0.6 over (0 Run) On a good length and in the channel, shaping away from the right-hander. Max O’Dowd watchfully leaves it alone.
0.5 over (3 Runs) Suryakumar Yadav saves one run for his side! Pitched up outside off, Wesley Barresi goes for the cover drive but gets it off the closed face of the bat through cover. The ball skids across the turf and SKY puts in a big dive to pull it back in. The batters do well to pick up three runs as well.
0.4 over (1 Run) Max O’Dowd is off the mark as well! Fraction shorter and in the channel, O’Dowd looks to defend but gets a bit of an outside edge down to third man. Mohammed Shami there runs to his left and keeps it down to a single.
0.3 over (0 Run) A huge appeal for LBW but it is turned down! Full and straight this time, swinging in a long way. Max O’Dowd plays all around this one and gets pinged on the pads. It might have been sliding down leg and no review is taken either.
0.2 over (0 Run) Goes wider of the crease now and angles it in on a shortish length from outside off. Max O’Dowd stays back and defends it down on the on side.
0.1 over (1 Run) Off the mark right away! Starts with a good-length ball angled onto the pads. Wesley Barresi flicks it away neatly down to fine leg and gets off the mark with a single.
