Netherlands vs West Indies: Once again, the Netherlands failed to make use of a strong start with the bat. Vikramjit got a start, but couldn’t kick on, and this led to Netherlands finishing with a sub-par total again. With the ball, there is some fight, but the Netherlands batting hasn’t been enough for the bowlers to work with.
For West Indies, they are developing a skill of coming back into the game after a poor start with the ball. While the new-ball bowlers aren’t as penetrating, West Indies are finding ways to pull the Netherlands back in the death. This series has given the West Indies another happy point and that would be regarding their middle-order. The middle-order has been given a decent hit in each game and are doing more than enough to ensure the side gains confidence.

Key Players
Scott Edwards
With the Netheralands collapsing after a hundred run opening partnership, the game changed far too quickly out in the middle. One aspect that remained constant through the remainder of the innings though was the presence of Scott Edwards. Despite losing partners, he stayed strong and ensured he gave it his best to bat through the innings and was the last man to be dismissed after a fighting 64.
Brandon King
With the loss of early wickets, the West Indies were under pressure, and this allowed Brandon King to play a role that he is accustomed to playing in the Big Bash League. He countered, and hung onto his wicket, while maintaining the tempo of the innings, and looked dangerous on his way to a match winning 91. This series has been a good one for him with two half-centuries, and another good innings could make him a contender for the man of the series award.
