The second match of the Women’s Tri-Series in Utrecht saw the Netherlands Women take on the Thailand Women’s National Team on July 11 at 5:30pm IST. Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd was the venue that hosted the second match of the Tri-Series. The women of Thailand collapsed after suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of the women of the Netherlands.
The Holland ladies were naked with the ball in front and then continued playing with the bat. The women of Thailand tried their best to challenge the host with tight bowling. But with a minuscule total defense, the women of Thailand were already fighting a losing battle.
After today’s match, the Netherlands Women are second in the points table with an NRR of 0.629. Thailand women managed to hold on to the top spot sitting with NRR 1.017. Meanwhile, the Scotland women continued to stay bottom with 0 wins to their name. They are scheduled to play their next match against the Netherlands Women on 12 July.
The women of the Netherlands lead the women of Thailand by 6 wickets
The women of the Netherlands made the right call sending the women of Thailand to bat first. The trick worked instantly when the Thai batters played for the hosts. Robine Rijke and Caroline de Lange achieved early successes by landing devastating blows early on that reduced the Thailand women to 37-4 in 10 overs.
As the Thailand women tried to get back on their feet, Iris Zwilling, Eva Lynch and Frederick Overdick hit in the back of the innings to derail the visitor for just 92. Van Oostrom’s second ball of the game without a run on the board.
However, Heather Segers and Babette de Lied kept their composure and played sensibly through midfield overtakes without taking any chances. They put together a powerful 46-run stand for the second wicket in the space of 53 deliveries.
This match-defining partnership brought them back into the chase. After de Lied’s dismissal, Holland went into a mini-meltdown but Segers’ presence until the end helped Holland comfortably cross the line with six wickets.
