Dominant New Zealand seal series 2-0 as the Dutch rue missed chances

Dutch News  

Brief scores: Netherlands 147-4 lost to New Zealand 149-2 in 14 overs by 8 wickets New Zealand backed up their opening win on Thursday to seal the series 2-0 in emphatic fashion as they chased down 148 with six overs and eight wickets to spare. Stand-in captain Mitchell Santner struck his career-best knock with an unbeaten 42-ball 77 and alongside Daryl Mitchell, who contributed with a half-century of his own, made light work of the chase as the duo put on a 123-run partnership off just 65 balls. New Zealand bought into the spin-heavy strategy employed by the Dutch successfully a day earlier by bringing in off-spinning all-rounder Michael Bracewell in for Lockie Ferguson. Captain But it was captain Scott Edwards, who reverse scooped Sears over third man for a six, in addition to hitting two boundaries, responsible for lending some death-over impetus in a passage of play dominated by the Kiwi quicks taking pace off the ball.
