Netherlands vs Canada, 1st T20I Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

So no presentation here. We leave it there. Tomorrow we will be back for more action from this tri-series. Do join us then. Bye for now.

18:59 Local Time, 16:59 GMT, 22:29 IST: Netherlands have made light work of this chase. O'Dowd struggled at the top as he failed to put bat to ball against the moving new-ball. But once he hit a six, he got going and his work was made easy by Michael Levitt who was in top nick. A couple of murderous pulls saw the ball fly over deep mid-wicket. After O'Dowd went, Vikramjit came and struck the second-fastest T20I fifty in Dutch history off 20 balls. He was severe on the spinners and was looking to score every ball. The game looked done and dusted then but Canada came back with four wickets although that was just scant consolation. Eventually Netherlands won with 23 balls to spare and that's a thumping win in this format. Canada gave too much width to Levitt and Vikramjit and once the duo started hitting, the ball flew to all parts.
