    It has somehow gone for four despite three fielders converging.

  3. Ind 128-2published at 16 overs

    Brilliant over for India, with 14 coming off it.

    Suryakumar Yadav plays a gorgeous drive, which has three fielders haring after it, but it beats them all perfectly in the middle and goes to the boundary.

    He repeats the shot next ball, before Virat Kohli flicks a poor ball over short fine leg.

    Four overs to go. What can India get to? 180 looks a fair way off.

    Rohit Sharma's innings was full of drama...

    That is such a good shot, he dissects the fields absolutely perfectly. Sometimes as a bowler you just have to say, fair enough.

  6. Ind 114-2published at 15 overs

    Kohl 32, Suryakumar 17

    Suryakumar Yadav is a serious talent.

    He seems to have such an ability to find the gaps no matter what shot he plays.

    He perfectly places between fine leg and square leg to pick up another boundary.

    India have got the capability to really kick on now with six overs to go, especially as they're only two wickets down.

  8. Ind 106-2published at 14 overs

    Good comeback from Paul van Meekeren with just two singles following the boundaries.

    Six overs to go. 175-180 on the cards? You'd hope so.

    India have pressed the 'Go' button.

    That is a lovely, lovely shot. He just has so much time.

  11. Ind 104-2published at 13.3 overs

    Suryakumar Yadav is a serious player.

    He whips through square leg, before a textbook drive - with a beautiful high elbow - brings him back-to-back fours.

    The accelerator has been pressed.

    Virat Kohli is getting going now. He's got that look in his eye, and I think we could see the ball going to all parts.

  13. Ind 95-2published at 13 overs

    India are starting to get the sense of urgency. They have added 42 in the last four overs.

    Virat Kohli plays a gorgeous straight drive for four, before some good running means a productive over of 11.

    Now this will be interesting because it brings in Suryakumar Yadav.

    And he certainly can hit a ball.

  15. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 12 overs

    Rohit c Ackermann b Klaassen 53 (Ind 84-2)

    Made in Manchester, taken in Sydney.

    Both Fred Klaassen and Colin Ackermann have played for Manchester Originals in The Hundred and here they are combining on the biggest stage of them all for the Netherlands.

    Rohit Sharma has consistently mistimed shots throughout this innings, but he eventually picks out a fielder, and it was a simple catch from Ackermann.

    The outfield is lightning fast. Even when Rohit isn't timing it, he's finding the boundary now.

    That was a very productive over for India and they're just ticking now.

    Ind 78-1

    India skipper Rohit Sharma is starting to tick.

    He sweeps Tim Pringle for four, before a streaky edge brings him a boundary - and his half-century - between point and third.

    What would be good score from here? You'd think 160 would be a minimum.

    Here's that dropped catch of Rohit Sharma earlier.

    It should really have been taken. It's already cost Netherlands 29 extra runs.

    It's been relatively cautious but they're just starting to get going. And if Virat can turn it on the way he did against Pakistan, watch out.

  20. Ind 67-1published at 10 overs

    Decent comeback from Bas de Leede with three singles and a wide following those boundaries.

    Time for a drink with us halfway through the India innings. Netherlands will be happy at the moment.
