Timeline
Bangladesh increased their hopes of qualifying for the Super Eight stage of the World Cup by beating Netherlands by 25 runs at Arnos Vale Stadium in Kingstown, Saint Vincent. Led by Shakib Al Hasan and Tanzid Hasan’s stellar batting display, Bangladesh managed 159/5 as their total. Leg-spinner Rishad Hossain proved his worth by taking three wickets to prevent Dutch hopes for a comeback.
Vikramjit Singh and Sybrand Engelbrecht gave the Dutch an outside shot at qualifying for the last eight, but were undone by disciplined Bangladeshi bowling. Engelbrecht scored 33 off 22 balls while Bas de Leede (nought), Scott Edwards (25) and Logan van Beek all made contributions of runs to help their side progress further.
Sri Lanka will face Nepal, who stand a slim chance of reaching the top four. After their loss at Lauderhill, Sri Lanka must win to have any chance at progressing further in Lauderhill and Lauderhill.
Shakib Al Hasan led Bangladesh with an unbeaten 64 off 46 deliveries – hitting nine fours as the Tigers posted a competitive total of 256-8 in 20 overs.
Netherlands made an effort in their innings but ultimately were dismissed for only 134-8. Leg-spinner Rishad played an essential part for Bangladesh by taking three vital wickets while Taskin Ahmed and Mahmudullah each picked up two scalps for Taskin Ahmed to seal an important win and secure their passage to the next phase of competition. With just one more victory secured they can move onto Phase II of this tournament.
Preparation
On Thursday, Bangladesh and Netherlands meet again at Saint Vincent and the Grenadines’ Arnos Vale Stadium to contest their third Group D matchup of this tournament, where the victor will have greater chances of qualifying for Super Eight stage. Both have two wins and one loss so far with veteran all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan excelling with bat and lower order veteran Mahmudullah providing excellent bowling performances while offspinner Rishad Hossain being an effective contributor for Tigers side.
Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto anticipates Dutch to play tough but remains confident his side will win this match. He noted it would be close but noted the team that handles pressure better would eventually prevail. While Dutch are known as an excellent team, Bangladesh have their own plans in place so to be successful and maintain consistency throughout the match will require preparation as well as sticking with processes.
After suffering their initial defeat against Pakistan, the Netherlands must now secure victory to qualify for the next round. They sit between South Africa and Nepal who both already qualified, so a win for them would ensure second place finish in their group.
The Dutch have long enjoyed cricketing success in England and won their inaugural ODI match against Yorkshire during the 2011 Cricket World Cup – as Ryan Ten Doeschate scored 119 from 110 balls – posting their highest ever score against an ICC Member country at that tournament. Following this success, they went on to win three more matches before stunning Sri Lanka for second place overall in Group B; unfortunately though their recent performance has left them falling down the rankings to fourth position overall.
Match Schedule
Bangladesh and Netherlands will meet in the second game of the day and whoever emerges victorious will have a better chance at qualifying for Super Eight stage. Both sides currently possess two points after two matches and sit comfortably between leaders South Africa (who already qualified) and bottom two Nepal/Sri Lanka who may fail to advance further in competition.
Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto has issued a warning regarding the difficult conditions at Arnos Vale. He believes that those teams best equipped to deal with it will emerge victorious.
Bangladesh won their 20 over match against Netherlands by 25 runs at Arnos Vale Stadium to advance further in 2022 T20 World Cup qualification. Veteran all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan scored an outstanding half century, hitting 64 off 46 balls with five fours and two sixes in making 159-5 total in their 20 overs innings. Opener Tanzid Hasan reached half century off 26 balls before Mahmudullah finished strong hitting 54 off final five overs for Bangladesh victory.
Aryan Dutt was brought in as a replacement for Teja Nidamanuru and quickly claimed two wickets for Netherlands as they attempted to respond in reply. Michael Levitt, Max O’Dowd and Fred Klaassen managed double figures before Rishad Hossain struck with three quick wickets to put pressure back onto Netherlands batting.
The Dutch are currently the only side in Group D that have not won, and their chances of progress depend on a win against Nepal in their last game – while simultaneously beating Bangladesh who are performing superbly with bat and ball.
