This match will be played at Lords on 09 June at 0030 GMT. Considering the way England clawed its way back into the game, Pakistan will hope to do the same. They will also be hoping to do it in style because the run rates may decide the seedings in this group.
Netherlands had only won by whisker that too on the last ball. But they still have a positive run rate. If they manage a decent net run rate then even if they lose this match they might end up higher than Pakistan. So not only has Pakistan to win this match but win it in a convincing manner.
If the match is close match then Pakistan is out.We hope Pakistan does put up a good display.
These two strong sides are evenly poised and managed to break the spirit of Scotland by their convincing and emphatic victories. The important aspect of this game is the loser in this match will be grouped with India in the super eight stage. So, the Indians will be keenly watching the out come of this match to formulate their strategies. Gary Kirsten is a South African and the IPL has given enough opportunity for both the Indians as well as both the teams to study each other’s strengths and weaknesses.
The South African openers are not as fiery as the New Zealand openers but one has already seen what a steady partnership with out the loss of wickets can do to the final outcome.
This Group A match between the minnows is scheduled on day 4 at 0030 hrs GMT at Trent Bridge.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni is making all the right cautious noises about the previous performances not really being an indicator for the performance in the tournament. It is good to be cautious than be complacent. For India it appears that Virender Sehwag will be replaced as opener by Rohit Sharma because Sehwag is not fully fit. No body in the present set up can be expected to take over from Sehwag but the selection of Rohit is interesting. To be fair to Rohit he has performed excellently in the two opening matches both against New Zealand and Pakistan. More than that it is a quiet acceptance of the fact that the best players should open. Rohit is not the batsman who would go slam bang but he can also send the ball a long way and can take both routes, once he sets in. Gautam Gambhir is experienced enough to understand this and will surely seize the initiative in the opening overs.

Whoa!!! What a spectacular match this day. It is the best best start to the tournament, ICC TWENTY twenty t20. The holand started with nothing and won over the host ENGLAND. England was never into the match at any moment. The DUTCH Outplayed english in all the areas of the cricket. Those who have seen the match have got the real enjoyment.
So the match goes this way.
ENGLAND BATTING has started so good by the opening partnership’s over haul. It seemed that netherlands were no where in to the match at this moment. Surprisingly England lost its first wicket and the decline of the england’s run rate started. after a huge fall of run rate and wickets in quick succession, England managed to put a par score of 162 for the loss of 5 wickets.
Netherlands Batting:
It lost it early wicket in the first over itself. but then came their team’s eldest player who struck with a blitzering six that went over deep midwicket. He also provided the required momentum by blowing two sixes and a four in quick overs. The momentum thus provided is carried over by the team members where BORREN, Reekers, Grooth, Doeschate are the main contributors.
