SPAIN 213 46.2 overs NETHERLANDS 215/6 49.2 overs Netherlands won by 4 wickets (with 4 deliveries remaining)

Really did not expect to win against such a strong team. All the practice and trainings camp paid off.. Bowlers have once again proved that they are the back bone of the team.. Fass as usual played the captains knock to take the team closer to the target and made it easy for the tailenders to finish it off without any pressure.

Massive blow! He's been the backbone of our batting unit. And a brilliant leader on the field. But William Gunnarsson is a more-than-able captain and would be filling the role for the final. Also he will be playing as a specialist batsman.

In the absence of the injured Danish captain Aksel Johansson, Chris Mattsson stepped up to play a leading knock to anchor the innings and give his team a platform.
But it really was the Jørn Storgaard-Paul Boesen partnership that really set Denmark's 332/5 in motion, particularly the brash and unashamed hitting of the former.

Dutch bowlers failed to live up to their past performances with Tyler de Lange and Martijn van Gorder being the only two to have not conceded runs in excess of 6-an-over.

Game-changing partnership from newbie Jørn Storgaard and Paul Boesen. Boesen had been quiet since his debut hundred but that's just the nature of the lower-middle order position. What matters is making it count in a pressure situation.

Our team strength is our bowling attack.. since they have been thrashed. It will be difficult for us to recover. But knowing my team and our captain, we won't go down without a fight.

In the absence of the injured Danish captain Aksel Johansson, Chris Mattsson stepped up to play a leading knock to anchor the innings and give his team a platform.
But it really was the Jørn Storgaard-Paul Boesen partnership that really set Denmark's 332/5 in motion, particularly the brash and unashamed hitting of the former.

Dutch bowlers failed to live up to their past performances with Tyler de Lange and Martijn van Gorder being the only two to have not conceded runs in excess of 6-an-over.

First one bites the dust for the Netherlands. That didn't look so convincing but the umpire had no hesitation in giving him out, Arnout Lauman departs after a sedated 13.
Arnout Lauman and Gerrit van Loon have given the Netherlands a sluggish start to the run-chase, as both openers looked quite uneasy against Martin Lundgren and Co.

I liked the way we fought. From newbies who lost 3-0 to Greece, to playing in the finals of EURO 2000 was a great journey.

We have proven that we have what it takes to dominate the WCC and be a formidable team in the future.

Congrats to Denmark, it was a great expirence
