van Bunge having a shocker of a WC, drops a sitter in the slips.
He's been poor in the field but he did top-score against Australia. Go Holland!

Tendo could enjoy this pitch, if he gets the chance to bowl.

The ball has been moving around but Scotland will be embarrassed about this.

Pity, I was looking forward to a close contest.

Tim de Leede is one of my favourite players from the Associates. Superb caught-and-bowled there.

At 38, I suppose he may call it a day after the WC.

Nice recovery here. Was going to get on Scotland for the win, but they're only paying $2.50. Not worth it, really.

Did bet on them to pass 150 earlier though, which is looking better now.

Excellent game by the Dutch. Fantastic bowling from Billy Stelling, backed up by Jonkman and Kashif. Solid batting from Zuiderent and Ten Doeschate. Hopefully this shows they're not as bad as they looked before.

Overall, RTD had two good 50's but his bowling wasn't great (the Ponting c&b excepted). Billy Stelling was a revelation to me, I've always wondered why he opens the bowling...didn't realise he's such a good line and length merchant. Promising signs from 20-year old fast bowler Mark Jonkman, the only Dutch bowler with lively pace (as in, 80+ mph). But, whisper it, his action does look a bit dodgy with the bent elbow.

Oh, and Canada miles ahead of the Dutch, pffffrrrtt...
