July 23, 2012: United Arab Emirates (UAE), in the ongoing http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World Cricket League Championship, made 221 runs for the loss of nine wickets against Netherlands, in the match that is being played at Sportpark Het Schootsveld, Deventer.
On winning the toss, the Dutch chose to field first, as they wanted to restrict their opposition on a small total to better their ranking on the points table.
They then got off to a flying start, by nabbing their first wicket without allowing their opponents to score a run, as UAE opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Amjad-Ali-c44076 was trapped in front of stumps on the third delivery of the match.
However, Netherlands had no idea what UAE had in store for them, as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Khurram-Khan-c71386 forged a resounding partnership, exhibiting their complete dominance over the Dutch bowlers, by hammering them all around the park without remorse.
While the bowlers tried their best to contain the duo, the batting onslaught was just too good to be stopped by anyone.
Finally this remorseless partnership came to its end on the wicket of Iftikhar, who was caught by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/PW-Borren-c2225 after jabbing an innings of 41 runs off 77 deliveries.
The skipper was then joined by, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Khan-c71319 perished after mounting an innings of 71 runs off 85 deliveries.
Then without the addition of another run, UAE lost their fourth wicket, when http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Saqib-Ali-c88733 perished on a duck. This was a major blow for UAE, while for Netherlands; this was the moment to come back in the game.
The duo of Anwar and V Shetty tried to continue UAE’s batting dominance, but could take the score only to 161 runs, before Shetty met his demise after scoring a knock of 15 runs.
Anwar was the next to go, as he fell after hammering 39 runs, leaving his team standing on a tally of 196.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Netherlands-c753, then wrapped up the UAE innings without letting the lower-order put a stiff fight.
