Netherlands XI capped off a brilliant all-round performance by defeating the Hungarians by a considerable margin. They never really looked like being beaten by their opponents, and their skipper Sebastiaan Braat will be extremely pleased with this showing. Hungary, on the other hand, need to go back to their basics.
Star bowler Clayton Floyd ensured that the Hungarian batsmen did not get going, along with Arnav Jain, who chipped in with three crucial wickets as well. A late flourish by all-rounder Abhitesh Prashar was not enough, as the game was by then well and truly away from the grasp of Hungary.
So this is us- Mohul and Bidipto- signing off from this game. Thank you for joining us. Stay tuned here on Sportskeeda for many more such exciting matches! Until then, goodbye.
