SR means, that bowler takes a wicket after bowling 31.56 balls on an average.

Thank you 

So SR the lesser is better???

Netherlands,  produced a decent show against a formidable Pakistan unit despite enduring a blow by 81 runs. Bas de Leede in particular was the star among the Dutch, delivering promising performances in both departments. 

The all-rounder accounted for four scalps with the ball and conceded 62 runs in the nine overs he bowled. He was equally good with the bat and gave the Netherlands a fighting chance against the likes of Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf, but his side could only manage 205 in response to Pakistan's 286.

Thanks for the tag raji 🥰

What's up with Nossy? He's out for how long

We are back in Hyderabad for Match 6 as teams begin to play their second matches of the tournament. With all teams having had a chance to showcase their wares, we’ve got a fair idea of how they stack up. Although both these teams got off to contrasting starts, both teams made a great impression in their own right. While New Zealand completely blew England away, the Netherlands put up a good fight against Pakistan despite going down in the end. While the odds might be stacked against the Dutch today, there’s always a prospect of an upset and games like those are always extremely exciting.

How did New Zealand kickstart their campaign? Well, the Kiwis couldn't have hoped for a better start to the World Cup. They set off to a winning start and it wasn't just any win. They gave defending champions England a sound drubbing. Chasing 283 to win, New Zealand got there with 9 wickets and nearly 14 overs to spare. Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra shared a monumental 273-run stand and they made an astute captain and his world-class bowling attack look clueless.

And what about the Netherlands? They might've lost in their opening encounter against Pakistan but they had a lot of positives to take away. On a placid surface, the Netherlands bowled really well to restrict the opposition to 286. They even got off to a promising start with the bat but unfortunately, they lost their way in the middle overs as Pakistan hit back by claiming a clump of wickets. Nonetheless, the Netherlands looked very competetive and even held the edge for large parts of the game - something that'll give them confidence moving ahead.
