South Africa 269 v Netherlands 36 - South Africa Women won by 233 runs
On Friday, November 18, 2011 http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 Krira Shikkha Protisthan No 2 Ground, Savar.
South Africa grabbed two points from this win after defeating the Dutch by 233 runs as they prevented the minnows from chasing a target of 270 runs in 50 overs.
After winning the toss, South Africa who have been a top team in the tournament so far chose to bat first in a bid to post a staggering total against Netherlands.
Openers http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Netherlands-c753 bowlers early on and proved just why the South Africans are so good when it comes to crush
the spirit of winning from minnow teams.
The opening duo posted 62 runs in the first-wicket partnership before Netherlands grabbed the wicket of Fritz who lost her wicket on the penultimate delivery of the ninth over after scoring 27 runs.
It was then http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Cri-zelda-Brits-c51770 who took the field and crafted another potent partnership with Chetty to subdue the Dutch who by now were getting impatient and were eager to grab a few more wickets to give their batsmen a fighting chance in the match.
However, the South African batswomen were just too good for the Dutch as they played their opponents with zeal and confidence.
Chetty then after playing an inspirational knock of 42 runs lost her wicket in the 20th over when South Africa had amassed 111 runs on the board.
Skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mignon-du-Preez-c76274 then came out to bat alongside Brits as the duo posted 93 runs together in the third-wicket partnership.
Brits and Preez smashed 63 and 65 runs as they played a crucial role in helping their side rally 269 runs on the board.
Coming out to bat, Netherlands had a tough task ahead and needed to bat maturely to subdue the rampant South African squad.
However, the Dutch was just not equipped with the expertise needed to beat the South Africans as their batting line-up was incinerated by the Proteas 16.3 overs after posting 36 runs on the board.
From Netherlands Esther Lanser managed to score in double figure as she posted 11 runs on the board.
From South African Shabnim http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ismail-c64603 and Moseline Daniels bowled extraordinarily as they grabbed six and four wickets to help their side win the game.
Ismail was named as the Player of the Match for the serious damage that was unleashed by her on the Dutch batswomen.
