*Official* Match #6- New Zealand vs Netherlands- Hyderabad, October 9th

Why would De Leede switch from the slower ball bouncers to the attempted (and badly failed) yorkers? Final ball goes for 13 as a result.
 
This same Netherlands team made 370-odd against us just a few months ago, and that was in the 2nd innings. There's no van Beek today though.

Aside from Phillips and Chapman trying to convince us they're not actually good, that's a strong innings. I know Netherlands have chased some big scores before, and the ball may well come on a little better in the evening, but it's still a big ask to chase 322.

The start of Dutt's run up that's so front on makes me think he may have been as a seamer as a kid/early teen. Any idea @Magrat Garlick?
Not entirely sure but this match report from his u12 days talks about him bowling full and straight

Yeah seems like a bit of an odd way to describe good bowling from a spinner. Thanks!

Should be more than enough, we would have to bowl pretty badly to lose this..
