World Cup 2023 Points Table Today: South Africa and Netherlands clashed in the 15th match of the World Cup 2023 at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala. South Africa was coming off two consecutive victories, while the opposite was true for the Netherlands.
South Africa had dominated the previous two matches and wanted to repeat the performance against the Netherlands, but the Dutch had other plans. Rain delayed play for two hours, resulting in the over being reduced to 43 from 50.
However, South Africa, who elected to bowl after winning the toss, found it difficult to dissuade the Dutch batsmen, who posted an excellent score of 245/8 on the board after 43 overs. After a slow start, South Africa quickly went from 31/0 in 6 overs to 44/4 in 12 overs. Roelof van der Merwe and other Dutch bowlers brought the entire Proteas top order back into the stands.
Netherlands won by 38 runs after dismissing South Africa for 207 in 42.5 overs. After Afghanistan’s win over England, Netherlands’ shock victory over South Africa was the next biggest surprise of the 2023 World Cup.
However, pundits have predicted that the Netherlands will make the game competitive and should not be taken lightly. This is the same team that knocked West Indies out of the 2023 World Cup and also previously defeated South Africa in the T20 World Cup 2022. Constant dismissals and pressure from the Dutch players resulted in South Africa’s unexpected defeat.
With this incredible display of cricket, Netherlands moved up to number 9 in the points table.
