🏏ICC Men's T20I WC 2022: Super 12 - Group 1 - PAK vs NED - 30/10/22🏏 - Page 7

Scott Edwards, Netherlands captain: "That was still the right decision to make. We haven't batted first all tournament, we just were not good enough on the day. We were on 30 or so and 15 [19] after the powerplay. We couldn't string in the boundaries with the bat. Bowlers put their efforts in, but 90 was never enough."

Babar Azam, Pakistan captain: "I am very happy. Team did well with the ball and bat. I think the length was crucial. They needed to bowl on a good length because there was bounce on the surface. Everyone executed well. We are used to chasing much better than this. Win always gives you confidence. We are taking the good things forward to the next game."

Finally a win for Pakistan who get their first points of the tournament. They were too good for Netherlands who just had no answers with the bat, getting blown away for 91. But this is only a small step in the right direction. Pakistan will face more difficult tests ahead, and will have to watch out for other results as well, starting with the next game. It's the big one between India and South Africa.

In the other match, India won the toss and elected to bat first.
