Congratulations to Netherlands team to win one more and they won total 3 games of 20 overs tournament and good luck to upcoming matches. Netherlands team is a great team and they is stronger than Italy overall. The best bowling performance in the Netherlands team was delivered by Roelof van der Merwe and he bowled 4 over conceded 15 runs and took 3 wickets and he is the real winner of this game. The 10th match between Netherlands and Italy team was played Sportpark Westvliet. Italy won the toss and elected to bowling first. Netherlands won game by big leads 9 wickets and 22 balls. Italy only set a total runs for 134 and lost the match. Netherlands chased easy total runs for 135 and won the match. I hope Italy they will play better in the next match and save their reputation. Watching the energy of Netherlands players and enjoying the match is a lot of fun. Best of luck both teams upcoming matches.

That game was well illustrating the difference in quality between both teams. Italy simply did not find its feet and their top line collapsed in quick succession. When you are pegging a low score like 134 against a team such as the Netherlands, you have got to get wickets early but it did not happen. Roelof van der Merwe was excellent of his age and his experience was very distinct. Talking about the manner in which Netherlands hunted down the goal with such ease speaks a lot about its mentality and preparation. Italy must do something to recover fast and arrive in the following game in a better manner. It is just hope that they will learn a lesson and have a better batting depth.
