    Hoicked out to deep mid-wicket and there's no one out there - it goes all the way for six.

    He's fetched that with some enterprise from outside off stump. Maybe this is the catalyst to kickstart their innings.

    Ned 94-3published at 21.3 overs

    A brilliant shot from Nidamanuru flies over the leg-side boundary and goes all of the way for six.

    A bit of momentum needed and the Dutch will be hoping that is the start for them.

  3. Ned 85-3published at 21 overs

    Target 323

    Three dot balls end that over from Ravindra, but the Netherlands' run rate has crept up by the smallest of fractions.

    A step in the right direction at least.

  4. Ned 85-3published at 20.3 overs

    Target 323

    A thick edge brings up four for the Dutch. Nidamanuru will not mind that, considering his side's need for runs.

    New Zealand are sticking with spin as Ravindra and Santner share the workload.

    Here are the three wickets that New Zealand are picked up so far.

    Worth checking out the third one for Trent Boult's catch in particular...

  6. Ned 80-3published at 20 overs

    Target 323

    Santner gets worked around for four singles, but it is another over where the Dutch's target seems more out of sight than it did a few minutes earlier.

    The Netherlands have scored at four an over, but their required rate from here is now more than double that.

    Here we go, this is lively! We've got the floodlight show.

    The ground was plunged into darkness and then lit up again with a sort of strobe effect. This is a real scene in front of us.

    Thanks, Callum.

    This task for the Netherlands seems like quite a steep one. Not impossible, but highly unlikely.

    This is the Netherlands and World Cup cricket, however. Never say never.

    The players are taking drinks in Hyderabad.

    That signals a change for us. Jonty Colman will take you through the next phase of the Netherlands chase.

    The required rate is up to nearly eight-an-over now for the Netherlands.

    Target 323

    Nice shot.

    Teja Nidamanuru rocks onto the back foot and cuts Rachin Ravindra behind point to get off the mark with a boundary.

    Nidamanuru has a high score of 111 in ODIs. The Netherlands are going to need all of those today.

    Win predictor says 95% for New Zealand which feels about right. The Netherlands need something really special.

    He has got lucky. A cross-seam delivery from Lockie Ferguson, it stays low and nearly clips the top of off stump.

  14. Ned 70-3published at 18 overs

    Wow, that's kept low!

    A scrambled seam delivery from Lockie Ferguson and it sneaks under the bat of Teja Nidamanuru and just misses the stumps.

    Brilliant stuff from Ferguson.

    As Bas de Leede came off the field, you could see he was frustrated and knows the game has gone. He shouted "stupid shot."

  16. Ned 67-3published at 17 overs

    Target 323

    Teja Nidamanuru is the new batter and he blocks out two dots to end the over.

    The Netherlands need a significant partnership and quickly.

    Trent Boult will always have being stood on the boundary in the 2019 in the final on his mind, so that is going to feel extra special.

    Absolutely brilliant, it never fails to take your breath away. Trent Boult puts his thumb up, he knows he's nailed that.

    De Leede c Boult b Ravindra 18 (Ned 67-3)

    Brilliant from Trent Boult!

    Bas de Leede looks to hit Rachin Ravindra over long-off but Boult is there and waiting.

    He's stretching to take the catch and his momentum ends up sending him over the ropes, but he's aware to the issue.

    He throws the ball up in the air and then jumps back into the field of play to take the catch.

    Superb work.

  20. Ned 64-2published at 16 overs

    Just two singles from Lockie Ferguson's latest over.

    The Netherlands are going along at exactly four runs an over. The required run-rate is up at 7.61 now.
