Bangladesh, Netherlands aim to secure huge win amid point deficiency
‘By hook or crook’ this will be the phrase Bangladesh and Netherlands will be using when they face each other on Thursday at Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent. Bangladesh are coming off a defeat against South Africa that they nearly avoided but Maharaj’s bowling masterpiece denied them the victory.
If Bangladesh had clinched victory in that game, then South Africa would have been on the ropes, struggling to secure their place in the Super Eight. However, South Africa have qualified for the Super8, while Bangladesh continue to clear their path to the Super Eight. A win for Bangladesh in this game against Netherlands would consolidate their prospects for Super 8s. Moreover, Bangladesh would be hoping for better batting conditions to overcome the setback against South Africa.
Netherlands, on the other hand, are also entering the game on the back of a defeat against South Africa in their last match. Bangladesh and Netherlands are equal on the points as they are having two points each, meanwhile their position only differs in terms of Net Run Rate. Bangladesh have higher NRR than Netherlands. Heading into this game, both teams will be giving it all to secure a crucial win.
