Eric Szwarczynski's half-century took Netherlands to a comfortable six-wicket win over Bermuda in the second and final ODI at Amstelveen. While Thursday's game was washed out because of heavy rain, today's was restricted to 40 overs-a-side and Netherlands chased down their revised total of 174 with 23 balls to spare.
Netherlands were cruising along at 54 for 1 when opener Tom de Grooth retired hurt for 16. In came Szwarczynski and added 82 with Ryan ten Doeschate, who had taken 3 for 35 in Bermuda's innings. Szwarczynski took Netherlands to safety and fell only when five runs were required.
Earlier Bermuda captain Irving Romaine had scored 46 off 47 balls and added 76 with Steve Outerbridge to take Bermuda to 165.
