Australia and Netherlands have met twice before at World Cups ODI competition, with Pat Cummins’ side winning both matches. Australia hopes to continue this winning streak against their Dutch opponents.
Holland claim their first wicket when Logan van Beek bowls two dots — wide and short — which Aryan Dutt captures at fine leg. In this article, we will discuss about the Australian men’s cricket team vs netherlands national cricket team match scorecard.
Scorecard
Australia defeated Netherlands by 309 runs, setting a World Cup rout record. Their bowlers successfully defended Australia’s massive total while Glenn Maxwell scored the fastest century ever scored at any World Cup tournament to spearhead their victory. Netherlands never before managed a 300+ total against a full member team before; Ryan Ten Doeschate managed an outstanding effort reaching 119 from 110 balls played for Netherlands.
Pat Cummins won the toss and elected to bat first on an attractive wicket, which proved ideal for batting. Australia openers David Warner and Mitchell Marsh made steady starts, but Warner took longer than anticipated to reach century status; eventually surpassing Ricky Ponting as leading centurion of all ICC World Cup history.
Glenn Maxwell was particularly impressive, scoring his highest World Cup innings ever 107 balls and sharing an unbroken partnership of 142 runs with Alex Carey. Maxwell finished with three sixes and four boundaries but couldn’t stop Netherlands from setting an ambitious target of 399 runs in 31 overs.
Josh Hazlewood, Mitch Starc and Pat Cummins led an aggressive Australian attack, leaving few chances for Dutch bowlers such as Logan Van Beek, Roelof van der Merwe and Bas de Leede to offer much resistance against Australia.
Australia’s batsmen continued their assault at Arun Jaitley Stadium, taking full advantage of an aid-laden pitch. Dutch bowlers attempted to hold back scores but it proved too difficult, particularly with Glenn Maxwell creating spectacular shots with inventive batplay.
Holland’s hopes of an unlikely comeback faded when Van Beek trapped Cameron Green lbw with a short delivery, then Paul van Meekeren mishandled Maxwell’s loose ball at cover point, missing an easy run-out opportunity and failing to run it out for himself.
At the conclusion of the first powerplay, Australia had reached 166 for seven in 23 overs with a healthy lead of 245 runs. The Dutch started slowly in their reply, however Max O’Dowd was caught behind for 44 off 62 balls by Carey while Ryan Ten Doeschate fell after trying to run single off an off-spinner from Starc and fell for just one run off wide delivery from Starc.
Match Summary
Australians are in good form in this tournament after winning two out of the three matches they’ve played so far, including against Netherlands. Australia must beat Netherlands in order to maintain their chances of reaching the semi-finals; on the other hand, Netherlands have experienced two defeats from their opening three games, and will look to bounce back against Australia at Arun Jaitley Stadium New Delhi.
Australia showed exceptional batting prowess against Pakistan, with both David Warner and Mitchell Marsh scoring centuries, Marnus Labuschagne contributing with fifty runs to push Australia’s total to 399 runs, while Adam Zampa had four wickets in two of his most recent matches as an impressive bowling performance.
Holland openers Teja Nidamanuru and Logan van Beek will be key for their side to ensure they do not end up on the losing side once again. Both players will look to play aggressive cricket to hit stumps as quickly as possible while spinners play an essential part of keeping Australian batsmen at bay.
Adam Zampa starts the proceedings off well, restricting Dutch batsman Van Beek to only three singles before edging it right into Josh Inglish’s hands during an attempt at short delivery.
Aryan Dutt enters as the new batsman for Netherlands. On his first delivery he hits it out of bounds before driving another four through. Later he attempts a pull but misses the stumps by inches.
Pat Cummins strikes again when he gets Bas de Leede LBW for his third wicket of the match, caught off-side during an attempt at quick running but his stumps were out of the way of Pat’s bowler’s delivery – another blow for Netherlands struggling to keep up with Australian run rate. Marnus Labuschagne experiences some discomfort when hit by one of Pat’s deliveries and must leave for concussion checks after being hit by it as well.
Highlights
Glenn Maxwell led Australia to victory against Netherlands with an outstanding innings, giving them 309 runs against them and leapfrogging them in Group B by four places to fourth. This win gives Australia an edge as they work towards reaching semi-finals; also it confirms their quality following two early defeats at this tournament.
The Dutch struggled to match Australia as their chances were dashed by collapses that put an end to any hopes they may have had of winning this World Cup match. Maxwell scored the fastest ever century at any World Cup with eight boundaries included, while Bas de Leede became the Dutch’s most costly bowler conceding 115 runs from 10 overs bowled by him.
Australia began their innings strongly when Travis Head scored 71 off 47 balls off just 47 deliveries – only for him to be caught defending on Moeen Ali’s low ball that stayed low and out in one over. Australia were then reduced to 74-2 until Marcus Stoinis came in with some forceful hitting against Adil Rashid’s legspin bowling for six over midwicket and Liam Livingstone bowling; then smashing Liam Livingstone again for another four hit by Marcus Stoinis who made up his mind with two powerful hits off one over midwicket in one over before outpacing Moeen Ali in another over. Marcus Stoinis then came in to immediately attack bowling; hitting Adil Rashid legspin for six over midwicket while Liam Livingstone then delivered another blow by smashing Liam Livingstone back over bowling by smashing Liam Livingstone before eventually backing off to Moeen Ali bowler Moeen Ali for one last over by smashing one four after smashing. Marcus Stoinis then came in and immediately started hitting hard into bowling. Marcus Stoinis then hit Adil Rashid leg spin for sixes from Liam Livingstone before smashing Adil Rashid legspin for six over midwicket before smashing Moes legpin for four over midwicket before then smashing Liam Livingstone for four before smashing Adil Rashid legspin bowler Liam Livingstone bowler Liam Livingstone for four after which Marcus then quickly out for four himself out when backing up to Moe Ali bowler Moe’s legpin was then out soon after Stoinis came on Marcus Stoinis struck off immediately to smashing his legspin then Liam Livingstone who bowlers bowler before smashing him again before smashing Adil Rashid for six over midwicke a six was out another four as Marcus Livingstone before then smashing Liam Livingstones bowler Liam Livingstone then smashing Adil Rashid then hit Liam Livingstone followed then then hit for four before smashing him out before hitting Liam Livingstones ball that stay low ball to bowler then bowled out with both then to then followed the bowling him then before hitting Liam Livingstones then four before then just one after Liam Livingstone then hit just before smashing Liam Livingstone then for four before hitting over midwicke s then out was out then, Li before later hit Li then again for four later on before hitting for four then hit Li am Livingstone again against Liam Livingstone again then came in before before then hit followed another four later hit to sixing Adil Rashid then for four by then hit Liam Livingstone followed Li then Li.

But Holland tried their hardest with their bats, with Sybrand Engelbrecht and Logan van Beek building an encouraging 91-run partnership that gave hope of an upbeat win for the Dutch side. Unfortunately, Australia proved too strong with Adam Zampa taking four wickets to ensure an easy victory for his side.
Australia will look to cap off their campaign on an impressive note when they take on New Zealand in their final match at Greenfield Stadium, starting at 2:00 PM IST and being broadcast LIVE by Star Sports network (click here for live streaming and other details).
Final Score
Glenn Maxwell hits his second fifty of ICC World Cup 2023 and plays well alongside Australian skipper Pat Cummins. Australia are on course for an impressive total and could potentially even surpass 400 with Glenn Maxwell hitting innovative shots that are key in Australia’s success.
Netherlands bowlers have done an admirable job so far and been unable to make any inroads into Australia’s innings early. After losing their previous match, the Dutch require a win here in order to keep their hopes alive.
Australia captain Pat Cummins won the toss and elected to bat first on a pitch that has historically favoured batters. Openers David Warner and Mitchell Marsh both began cautiously before reaching their respective half-centuries despite Dutch bowlers restricting run scoring while Adam Zampa took regular wickets.
Ryan Ten Doeschate attempts to gain control of the innings with two boundaries in the third over, only to be caught behind off Nathan Lyon’s bowling. Logan Van Beek follows suit soon thereafter when Josh Inglis traps him leg before.
Vikramjit Singh hit another boundary in the fourth over as he found an opening between fielder and ball to score six off Nathan Lyon. Dutch batsmen threatened to gain control, yet Australian bowlers made excellent efforts in keeping them at bay.
The fifth over produced only one run as Dutch batsmen struggle to adapt to the fast pace of Australian bowlers. Overall it has been an uninspiring performance from them so far and if they wish to reach the semi-finals they will need to change things up soon.
David Warner has overtaken Ricky Ponting to become the leading century maker in ODI cricket history. Now with seven hundreds under his belt, only Rohit Sharma of India holds more centuries with eight.
