and that's it, short ball cut away past point to give the Scots a very comprehensive win
Netherlands vs Scotland, at Dublin, Jul 29 2008 - Ball by Ball Commentary
So another poor performance by The Netherlands but plenty of positives for Scotland who now lead the table, the highlights of today's play were John Blain's 5-wicket haul and a lovely innings from the skipper, who finished unbeaten on 54
Tomorrow is a rest day in the Championships but do join us on Thursday for the decider between Scotland and Ireland. Again we start at 10.45am in Clontarf, that's all from me, Chris Busby, for today. Cheers!
Just four to win
he's on the charge now driving through the covers for four more runs
driven through midwicket, excellent running brings two runs
probably the best shot of the day, driven on the up straight back past the bowler
cut to third man on the back foot for four
huge heave by Watson results in a single to third man off an inside edge
Free hit now
lovely bit of timing as Watson clips a full ball through midwicket. It was a no ball as well
single taken as McCallum drives wide of mid off
Schiferli replaces ten Doeschate
not this time, another flighted ball and after a few skips down the wicket Watson hits through mid on for four
flighted by Seelaar but Watson resists temptation and defends down the pitch
swept to fine leg for a single
down the wicket looking for a big hit, he almost chips one to mid off but it lands just short
another single on the leg side, a full ball helped down to fine leg this time
similar ball and shot, this time a little straigher through midwicket but the same result
short ball hit through square leg on the back foot, and they amble a single
good length forcing McCallum to defend on the back foot
pulled on the front foot to square leg, it may have stayed a little low
