Babar Azam’s Pakistan side will look to clinch the three-match ODI series when they face hosts Netherlands in the second ODI in Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, on Thursday (August 18). Pakistan edged past Scott Edwards-led Dutch side by 16 runs in the first ODI on Tuesday.
Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first. Only at 3-0 after four overs, it got worse for the visitors at 10-1 in six overs following Vivian Kingma’s maiden wicket which claimed Imam-ul-Haq (2) leg before wicket on referral by the Netherlands. Opener Fakhar Zaman led the recovery with 109 runs in 109 balls, including 12 fours and a six, before he was run out.
