Player of the MatchSadeera Samarawickrama91(107)
Right then, that is it from this game where Sri Lanka gets their first win of the tournament while Netherlands fails to make it two wins in a row. There is another cracking game going on at the moment between England and South Africa. You can just switch tabs to enjoy all the coverage of that game. Cheers!
Kusal Mendis, the victorious skipper of Sri Lanka says that he is happy with the win. Adds that they did well in all departments. Tells that their bowlers were brilliant in the first 10 overs. Praises Sadeera Samarawickrama for his knock and staying till the end and also credits Pathum Nissanka as well. Says he had three overs left of Kasun Rajitha but decided to save them for the death. Ends by saying there were a lot of positives and he has confidence in his team.
Scott Edwards, the captain of Netherlands says that it was an interesting pitch. Adds that they obviously didn't start well but Logan van Beek and Sybrand Engelbrecht got them to a pretty competitive total. Tells that they gave away too many boundary balls and fielding was also not up to standards. Mentions that their bowlers have been good for them throughout but the top order and bowlers let them down here. Says that they had a feeling that it would turn a bit later on and Dutt turns it a bit more than others. Further adds that their batting hasn't quite clicked yet as there have been too many starts that haven't been converted. Ends by saying he is not bothered by batting first or second and they just need to execute their plans better in the next game and is not stressed about this loss.

Presentation Time...
Earlier in the game, Netherlands posted a fighting total on the board even after being in a struggling position. They were 91-6 at one point but fifties from Sybrand Engelbrecht and Logan van Beek gave their bowlers something to play with in this match. Dilshan Madushanka and Kasun Rajitha both were excellent with the ball for Lanka and picked up four wickets each while Maheesh Theekshana chipped in with one as well. While chasing, Sri Lanka suffered a couple of early blows but their middle order took their time and a couple of fine knocks got them over the line with five wickets in hand.
Netherlands, on the other hand, will be wondering if they could have done better as they failed to match their performance against the Proteas. Aryan Dutt provided them with two crucial wickets inside the first Powerplay but they just couldn't build on that and let Lanka make their back in the game. The Dutch knew that a couple of partnerships would take the game away from them and that is exactly what happened here. They were also a bit sloppy in the field and that missed stumping from skipper Scott Edwards when Sadeera Samarawickrama didn't even open his account cost them a lot. Paul van Meekeren and Dutt struck again in the middle overs but they needed a few more in quick succession to test Lanka even more. Netherlands tried everything, from different tactics to matchups but it was just not their day here.
Sri Lanka started a bit cautiously but lost Kusal Perera and skipper Kusal Mendis for low scores. However, Pathum Nissanka held the other end well and kept the scoreboard ticking. He along with Sadeera Samarawickrama steadied the ship with a 52-run partnership but Nissanka lost his concentration right after the first drinks break and departed after reaching his third half-century on the trot. After that, Sadeera took responsibility on himself and found good support from Charith Asalanka as well. Both of them rotated the strike well and managed to score runs at a good rate too which didn't let the game go away from them at any point. They added 77 runs together before Asalanka departed for 44 after playing a poor shot. Dhananjaya de Silva came in and used his experience well and along with Sadeera took them closer to the target with less than a run-ball knock, but he too got out trying to finish things quickly. Sadeera Samarawickrama remained unbeaten on a brilliant 91 and Dushan Hemantha hit the wining runs in the end.
SRI LANKA FINALLY GETS OFF THE MARK IN THIS WORLD CUP! Now, every team participating has a win to their name and that is what the audience wants to see in these big events. This was a decent performance from the Lankans, still not their best one but the important thing here is that they got over the line in the end. This is also the highest successful chase at this ground.

Aryan Dutt To Dhananjaya de Silva
A huge shout for LBW but turned down! This is slower through the air, on middle, turns in, Dhananjaya de Silva stays back to defend but misses and gets hit high on the pads. It looks like missing leg and Netherlands anyway don't have any reviews left.
Dhananjaya de Silva comes out to the middle now.

Aryan Dutt To Charith Asalanka OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Aryan Dutt finally gets his man! This was coming and Charith Asalanka fails to see out Dutt's last over of the game. This is fired in the blockhole, on middle, angling in, Charith Asalanka goes down on one knee to slog it across the line but misses it completely and the ball goes through to shatter the stumps. There was no need for a shot like that, and Netherlands believe again here.

Bas de Leede To Sadeera Samarawickrama
FIFTY FOR SAMARAWICKRAMA! A lovely knock from him and he has taken Sri Lanka out of a troublesome situation, but he knows the job is not done yet. This is on a good length and on off, Sadeera Samarawickrama nudges it towards deep square leg for a single.
Drinks break! Sri Lanka have steadied the innings with Sadeera Samarawickrama and Charith Asalanka in the middle. They now need just 90 runs and should be an easy chase from here. The Netherlands are giving their all and putting up a real fight. Dutt is spinning the ball sharply and making it difficult for Asalanka. The Dutch might go down but not without a fight.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Paul van Meekeren geta a huge wicket here! Once again a break in play helps the fielding side and Pathum Nissanka goes back after a well-made fifty. This is short of a length and just around off, shapes in a bit, Pathum Nissanka stays back and tries to guide it away but only manages to get a thin outside edge behind where Scott Edwards moves to his right to take a fine catch, Sri Lanka three down now!
Drinks break! Sri Lanka are going along nicely in the chase of 263. They lost two early wickets but Nissanka and Samarawickrama have done well and added 52 so far for the third wicket. The game is under control for Sri Lanka and the Dutch need a few quick wickets to get back into the game.
