Probable Best Performers of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Max O’Dowd
The ace batter Max O’Dowd got off to a great start in the series opener on Saturday. Opening the batting alongside Vikramjit Singh, O’Dowd smashed a crucial 23-run knock at the top of the order. He was also the second-highest run-getter in what turned out to be a low-scoring contest. With the game on Monday posing a fresh challenge, the Dutch opener will back himself to be among runs against the mighty Bangladeshi attack.
Probable Best Bowler: Taskin Ahmed
Star bowler Taskin Ahmed looked sensational in his four-over spell in the first match against the Netherlands. With his accurate line and lengths, Taskin not only controlled the flow of runs from his end, but also bagged a magnificent four-wicket haul in the first innings, which helped the hosts restrict the Scott Edwards-led side to a total that was chased by Bangladesh with 39 balls and eight wickets intact.
