Netherlands lost today's match because of their stupid batting. Top order batsmen do not get out by performing poorly. Four of the first 5 batsmen were run out. In such an important match, the Netherlands batsmen should have batted responsibly. But they played like fools. Had it not been for these four run outs, the Netherlands could easily have given away a target of 260+ today. And if Netherlands could have given a target of more than 260 on this pitch, they might have won the match. Giving a target of just 180 runs was impossible to win. Afghanistan batsmen batted very responsibly today. The team has won four out of seven matches and is now fifth in the points table.

Afghanistan played some outclass bowling along with their batting as they are playing at their full covers and they have many skills now, at first the Afghanistan Team was not considered as good as they play the game today. So, I think they will be the better team in the coming matches if they are good at their capabilities. Mostly the Afghanistan Batsmen have good batting skills and they are also good at bowling. The Netherlands won many matches previously which also included an upset but we have seen they were completely disappointed today and seems that they were locked by the Afghanistan Bowlers. Better to work on their batting and they have to focus on their bowling side as they have some better bowlers if they make their length a little better.
Afghanistan scored nine runs in an over and did not concede a wicket. Afghanistan scored 16 runs in three overs in style and did not allow their opponents to get a single wicket. The visitors out Afghanistan's first batsman in the third ball of the sixth over. Netherlands took the wicket of Afghanistan's second batsman in abudant style. And so Afghanistan scored 116 runs in 20 overs.
 This match was very important for Afghanistan which they won very easily.Afghanistan completed the target of Netherlands in 31 overs and gave them a big defeat.
