India beat Netherlands for perfect Cricket World Cup group stage win record

Al Jazeera  

Iyer and Rahul tons help India to a 160-run win over the Netherlands, who finish at the bottom of the group standings. Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul hit hundreds as Cricket World Cup hosts India geared up for the semifinals with a crushing 160-run victory over the Netherlands to keep their 100 percent record intact with nine group wins. Requiring a record World Cup chase to win, the bottom-placed Dutch side got good starts from Max O’Dowd, Colin Ackermann, Sybrand Engelbrecht and Teja Nidamanuru, but they never threatened and were dismissed for 250 in 47.5 overs. The duo forged a 208-run partnership – the highest fourth-wicket stand in World Cups – as India scored 126 runs in their final 10 overs to post the third total above 400 in the event. The Netherlands chipped away and were rewarded when Bas de Leede had Rohit caught at wide long-on, but Virat Kohli and Iyer took India past 200 runs in the 29th over with a 71-run stand.
