Live Scores and Stats - Malaysia and Nepal - Match 6
Current Form Malaysia:
Malaysian side were involved in a closely fought game against Netherlands that ended up in a tie. After winning the toss, Malaysia chose to field first. The opening bowlers were spot on with their line and length as they wrecked the top order and reduced Netherlands to 22 for 3 in the 4th over. Pieter Seelar and Ben Cooper then steadied the ship and stitched a partnership of 66 runs for the 4th wicket. Rain kept interrupting in the match and hence the match was reduced to 13 overs per side. Netherlands made 107 runs in their designated 13 overs of play.
Chasing 107, Malaysia got off to a flier as both the openers carted the ball to all parts of the ground. Syed Aziz and Anwar Arudin put on a stand of 57 runs for the 1st wicket and laid the foundation for a famous victory. Sebastiaan Braat pegged Malaysia back by picking up back to back wickets. Aminuddin Ramly struck a meaty blow at important time and Malaysia were back in a hunt. The equation was reduced to 7 runs in 6 balls. It certainly looked like a Malaysia’s game to lose. In the end, they could not get over the line and the match was tied.
