INDIA vs NED Live: India Victorious
India secure two points, and subsequently, climb to the top of the Group 2 points table.
Netherlands end their innings at 123/9 - never looking comfortable chasing the big target of 180 runs. Spinner Tim Pringle is the only Dutch batter who managed to reach the 20-run mark, as the Indian bowlers had a rewarding day at the office.

Netherlands are 87/6 after 16 overs.
India vs Netherlands Live: Ashwin Ends Spell With 9-Run Over
A Tim Pringle six means Ravichandran Ashwin is expensive in his last over, but his figures of 4-0-21-2 will impress the team management.
Netherlands are 81/5 after 15 overs.

Netherlands are 73/5 at the end of 14 overs.
India vs Netherlands Live: Two Wickets in an Over For Ashwin
The very slim chances of a comeback Netherlands had are perhaps over now, as Ravichandran Ashwin has dismissed not one, but two batters in his second over. Colin Ackermann and Tom Cooper depart, as Netherlands are now struggling at 64/5.
India vs Netherlands Live: Another Good Over For Axar
Only six runs came from Axar Patel's third over, as it seems the victory is all but in India's grasp. Netherlands are 62/3 at the end of 12 overs.
India vs Netherlands Live: Missed Opportunity

Brilliant last over for India!

IND vs NED Live: Time for the Suryakumar Show

India vs Netherlands Live: Pringle's Spell Ends

India are 53/1 after 9 overs.
India vs Netherlands Live: Rohit Frees Shackles
Are the shackles coming off now? Seems so, as Rohit Sharma struck a big six in the eighth over, bowled by Logan van Beek. He was also given leg before wicket only a ball later, but DRS replay showed a huge inside edge.
India are 48/1 after 8 overs.

For the second time in as many overs, Rohit Sharma almost threw his wicket away but somehow managed to extend his stay on the crease.

IND vs NED Live: Catch Dropped, Rohit Survives
India almost lost their second wicket in the fifth over. Trying to play the pull for a six, Rohit Sharma edged the ball towards mid-on, but Tim Pringle could not hold on to the catch. It could have been a huge breakthrough for the Oranje.
India are 27/1 after five overs.

Yet another underwhelming outing for KL Rahul. He had the opportunity to get some runs under his belt, but Paul van Meekeren trapped him leg before wicket in only his first over.
India are 18/1 after 3 overs.
India vs Netherlands Live: Pringle Start Well
Left-arm orthodox spinner Tim Pringle was called up to bowl the second over, and he did well to concede only a couple of singles. India are 9/0 after the first two overs.
India vs Netherlands Live: 7 Runs From Over 1
Good first over for India, and to be more specific, for KL Rahul. The opener had a poor outing against Pakistan, but he is looking in good touch today as Fred Klaasen's first over yielded seven runs.
India vs Netherlands Live: Playing XIs
India are playing the same eleven players who featured in the win against Pakistan.
India Playing XI: KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma (c), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh.

India vs Netherlands Live: India Win Toss, to Bat First
Indian skipper Rohit Sharma won the flip of the coin and elected to bat first. Though the primary target will be to pick up two points, net run rate could also prove to be a vital factor in deciding the semi-finalists. Hence, India will be eager to post a big total today.
"We want to keep improving no matter what the results are, it always keeps you in good stead when you are thinking like that. It is important for us to keep ticking those boxes," Sharma said after the toss.
India vs Netherlands Live: Toss Coming up Soon
The match between South Africa and Bangladesh has concluded, with the Proteas securing a comfortable win. We are now all set for the toss.
IND vs NED Live: When Is the Toss?
Ideally, the toss should have taken place at 12 noon, but it will be slightly delayed.
The match between South Africa and Bangladesh had a 22-minute delay owing to rain. The fixture is about to conclude, with Bangladesh having lost 9 wickets already, and we can expect the toss to happen soon after this game's conclusion.

Sydney experienced rain earlier in the day but the weather seems to be perfectly fine now, with the sun out. Currently, Bangladesh and South Africa are competing in an encounter at the same venue.
India vs Netherlands Live: India Obvious Favourites, but No Room for Complacency
India vs Netherlands T20 World Cup 2022 Live Score: India will take on the Netherlands in their second Super 12 fixture of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 today, 27 October, at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Rohit Sharma’s team will be in high spirits, following what was an enthralling victory over Pakistan.
Against their neighbours in the first match, the men in blue snatched victory from the grasp of defeat, chasing a 160-run target down despite reeling at 31/4 at one stage. Virat Kohli was the architect-in-chief of the victory, as he scored 82 runs from 53 deliveries and remained unbeaten.
As for the Netherlands team, they perhaps exceeded expectations by making it to the Super 12 – beating the United Arab Emirates and Namibia in the process. The performance from Scott Edwards’ team was also commendable in their first Super 12 fixture, against Bangladesh, but they suffered a narrow 9-run defeat.
Though India are the overwhelming favourites for this match, head coach Rahul Dravid would know well the cost of complacency, especially when we witnessed a major upset only a day before, when Ireland defeated England.
India defeated Netherlands by 56 runs in their second ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 match.
Netherlands scored 123/9 while chasing a target of 180 runs.
India scored 179/2 in their 20 overs after batting first.
Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav scored half-centuries.
