Right then, that is it from the game. The two teams will meet each other on Sunday, 2nd of April for the final ODI game. It will start at 1.30 pm IST (8.00 am GMT). Do join us a bit early for the build-up. Until then, goodbye and cheers!
Temba Bavuma the skipper of South Africa says that it was a clinical performance. Adds that Dutch got to a good start but they always remained calm and waited for the mistakes and when the opportunity arises they grabbed it with both hands. Praises Tabraiz Shamsi for his performance and says that he is a match-winner and always try to give his best for the team. Mentions that in recent times he is enjoying his cricket and things falling into place and the team also gets a lot of confidence from that. Ends by saying that Pink Day is always good and it is for a good cause and adds that the boys enjoy playing and they have a pretty good record too.
Sisanda Magala is the player of the match. He says that he kept it as simple as possible and it was just his day. He adds that he likes to bowl and it worked for him. Says that it feels good for him to be a part of the team and he is liking that. Ends by saying that they will look to win the final game as well.
Scott Edwards the skipper of Netherlands says that it was a good start but they couldn't build on that and 189 was always going to well below-par. Adds that few players got good starts, but were unable to make the innings big which is a thing that they need to work on. Tells that they will look to comeback stronger in the next one. Ends by saying that they the Pink Day is for a good cause and it should be a decent crowd.
Presentations coming up...
Earlier in the game, the Netherlands were bundled out for a below-par total of 189 runs. Vikramjit Singh and Teja Nidamanuru were the only two batters who played well for them and scored 45 and 48 respectively. For South Africa, Tabraiz Shamsi and Sisanda Magala picked up three wickets each and were certainly the pick of the bowlers. Anrich Nortje picked two while Marco Jansen and Aiden Markram chipped in with one each.
The Netherlands struggled with the ball. They got an early wicket but just couldn't manage to get the South African skipper. Fred Klaassen and Aryan Dutt picked two wickets and those were the only two wickets they got in the game. They will be upset with their performance and will look to bounce back from this one.
Well, well, that was certainly one-way traffic in this game. South Africa have won it comprehensively with eight wickets in their bank. They started off slow and lost Quinton de Kock early on in the game. Rassie van der Dussen played a good cameo of 31 runs but was dismissed in the 19th over. Temba Bavuma and Aiden Markram then made sure they get their team over the line. The former scored 86 runs while the latter scored 51 runs. The hosts are one step closer to direct qualification for the World cup now.
