Max O’Dowd got the Netherlands off to a flyer but after he departed, the first of Taskin Ahmed’s four wickets, it was all a bit of a struggle. Wickets fell at the first sign of aggression, the batters struggling to find any timing against the hosts changes of pace. An equally explosive start from the hosts, with Parvez Emon taking the first three deliveries from Ayran Dutt for 4,4,6. No let up then from Litton Das and Tanzid Hasan who added another 66 in quick time. Just three balls of the fourteenth over from Vikram Singh are enough for Saif Hassan to get the 13 required - 2,6,6. Hassan 36 off 19 (1x4, 3x6), and Das 54 off 29 (6x4, 2x6) in a real spanking for the Oranje tonight.

It seems the only thing we can be sure of when Nepal play is that there will be an exciting finish, and they didn't disappoint again today. Aarif Sheikh hit the final ball of the 19th over for two and promptly retired hurt! And with seven runs required off the final over In walks Lokesh Bam - BAM as he dispatches Lion-Cachet's first delivery for 6! Scores tied, Dot, Dot and them BAM again to end the game with another maximum.

A Nandan Yadev boundary from the final delivery levelled the scores as Nepal scored 55 in the last 5 overs. Daniel Doram whose claimed 3-14 in his four overs bowed the super over for the Netherlands conceding 19 as Kushal Bhurtel (18) hit 2x6 and 1x4 in the 5 balls faced. Karan KC to bowl for Nepal and Michael Levitt hits his first delivery for 6 - Amazing as Max O'Dowd hits the fifth for 6 and ties the super over with a boundary off the last! Second superover - new batter and new bowler. Scott Edwards facing Lalit Rajbanshi, O'Dowd the other batter: 6, 1, 6, wd, 1, 2, W = 17/1. Klein to Paudel: 6, 1, DS Airee facing 4, 0, 0, 6!!!!! = 17/0 and the second super over is also a Tie. Third superover starts with Paudel facing Zac Lion-Cachet: W, 0, 0, W Rupesh Singh the second wicket and that's it = 0/2. Just 1 run will win it for the Netherlands and Levitt blasts Lamichane's first ball for 6. Drama and excitement all the way as Netherlands finally claim the win.

A record breaking 191 from George Munsey wasn't enough today (Cricket Scotland)
A record Scottish ODI score from George Munsey whose 191 included 14x4 & 11x6, propelled the Scots to seemingly safe 369. But with Max O'Dowd leading the chase the Oranje still in the game, 200 up in the 30th over. If O'Dowd is leading the way Nidamanuru and Croes are playing their their part also - 32 required off the final 4 overs. The Oranje surely favourites now, they've got the rate down from tens to a run-a-ball from the last 3 overs. Sharif can bowl two of them and he claims Croes third ball back! 11 required off 12 balls and 8 comes off Cassell's final over. 3 off 6 for a fantastic winning chase by the Netherlands. And O'Dowd wins it with a 6!! One of the great chases - what a match.

Namibia lost to Netherlands by 7 wickets
Windhoek, 13 March.
Namibia 148 (44.5 overs: G Erasmus 63; K Klein 3-14, A Dutt 3-28, P van Meekeren 3-30) Netherlands 152/3 (37 overs: C Ackermann 54*, S Edwards 52*; B Scholtz 2-27)
Max O'Dowd is bowled by Bernard Scholtz (ICC)
A sixty run partnership between skipper Gerhard Erasmus and Malan Kruger was all Namibia had to show for their decision to bat first. Three early wickets for Aryan Dutt and three also for both Kyle Klein, who made the initial breakthrough, and Paul van Meekeren who wrapped the innings up, the last six wickets falling for just 32 runs. In the chase Bernard Scholtz caused a wobble with the wickets of Zach Lion-Cachet and Max O’Dowd in quick succession. From 40/3 Colin Ackermann and Scott Edwards steered the Oranje to the win and second place in the table, their unbroken partnership worth 112, both completing half centuries in the process.

Mopping up operations were in vain in Windhoek (Cricket Namibia)

A day for spin in Windhoek (Cricket Namibia)
Netherlands openers Vikram Singh and Max O’Dowd battled through to the halfway stage of the reduced game posting 84 before both fell in quick succession. The innings turned into a procession after that with only Teja Nidamanuru offering any resistance but thirty-two precious runs added for the final wicket gave the Netherlands something to defend and defend it they did with some ease. Two wickets for Kyle Klein in his opening over, then three from off-spinner Ayran Dutt removed the middle order, before Zach Lion-Cachet wrapped things up with ten overs to spare.

Max O'Dowd: The evolution to a process driven approach
Max O'Dowd is an opening batsman for the Netherlands who has quietly gone about fashioning a strong record across all three formats. He grabbed the headlines earlier this year when he guided the Dutch home in a monstrous chase of 370 against Scotland in an ODI in Dundee. Opening the innings, he made an unbeaten 158 from just 130 balls to take his team to victory with four balls remaining and four wickets in hand.
