The middle order failed terribly and the target started feeling too afar for Netherlands. Noah Croes tried his best to bring life into the game by scoring 32 runs but the target was way too tall for him to achieve it without any support.

During the chase, USA lost their premier batters Andries Gous and Nitish Kumar quite early and looked in deep waters right from the word go.
