Michael Levitt and Max ODowd are at the crease. Michael Levitt is on strike. Mathews will open the attack
Welcome back for the chase. Mathews will open the attack with one slip in place.
Engelbrecht: Looks like a really good pitch. There are learnings from the way they constructed their innings. There are runs to be had in the back end. It's going to be tough (talking about the target) but you never know in T20 cricket.
22:07 Local Time, 02:07 GMT, 07:37 IST: The last 5 overs have been pretty deflating for Netherlands and they've left themselves with a massive task in hand. Not only do they have to win, they've to get their run-rate ahead of Bangladesh, in case Shanto's men lose to Nepal. If they do win, this chase will turn academic. Sri Lanka started slowly, lost Nissanka in the 1st over, the two Mendis's ensured a decent start. Dhananjaya then joined Kusal in adding 45 runs for the 3rd wicket. The turbo boost came in the last 5 overs as Sri Lanka sent the bowlers on a leather hunt, adding 77 runs in the process. Wonderful cameos from Asalanka, Mathews and Hasarange ensured that their bowlers had a big score to defend. This is the highest score of the tournament and Nether;ands have their task cut out. Back for the chase shortly..
