Netherlands fail to stroll the stroll after speaking an excellent recreation – Cook

Netherlands have harassed they don’t seem to be simply at this World Cup to make up the numbers. A shock win over South Africa early of their event solely galvanised them, and their perception they may make a significant run on the semi-final.

“The guys will be hurting in the changing room, for sure,” Cook stated. “We talked a good game before the game, and we didn’t play a good game of cricket today. We didn’t execute our plans quite like we wanted to and then the fight that we have shown in lots of the matches – we saw only glimpses of that. We need to play better cricket for a lot longer if we’re going to compete with teams like Australia.

“Resilience is one thing as I say we satisfaction ourselves on as a crew. We’ll be capable to get again up for the subsequent recreation and study our classes from that.”

Australia had already passed 300 in the 44th over when that happened, but could conceivably have been held to less than 350 had Maxwell been dismissed at that stage, as they were already six down.

“When these kind of gamers offer you probabilities, even when they’re half probabilities, you do need to take them to have the ability to give your self an excellent likelihood of victory,” said Cook.

Allrounder Logan van Beek said the greater disappointment was Netherlands’ batting. After an early string of boundaries to Vikramjit Singh, who top-scored with a run-a-ball 25, the remainder of the batting line up folded rapidly. The next-highest score was Nidamanuru’s 14.

“With the bat is the disappointing one. We should not be getting bowled for 90. We needs to be placing up not less than a battle. That’s the half that hurts essentially the most.”
