LIVE, Sri Lanka vs Netherlands, T20 World Cup 2021, Full Cricket Score

Toggle between the tabs above to switch between quick scorecard, full scorecard and ball-by-ball commentary Toss: Sri Lanka skipper Dasun Shanaka won the toss and elected to field against Netherlands in their bid to top the group in round one of the Twenty20 World Cup on Friday. The island nation, who have already qualified for the Super 12 stage with two successive wins, have made one change with Charith Asalanka replacing Dinesh Chandimal. “We are going to bowl first, because in the next stage we have three matches here and we want to assess the conditions well,” Shanaka said at the toss. “I watched the IPL (Indian Premier League) and batting second gives people a better chance.” Sri Lanka are almost certain to finish top of the table ahead of Namibia, who shocked Ireland in the first match of the day to book their Super 12 spot, barring a heavy defeat in this match.

It will be 41-year-old Ryan ten Doeschate’s final game for Netherlands and Seelar wished the veteran allrounder a great second innings. “Even when he came back later on, his input was very valuable,” said Seelar. “He’s done fantastically well and I wish him all the best. Great guy.” Teams Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Perera (wk), Charith Asalanka, Avishka Fernando, Wanindu Hasaranga, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Dasun Shanaka (capt), Chamika Karunaratne, Dushmantha Chameera, Maheesh Theekshana, Lahiru Kumara Netherlands: Max O’Dowd, Stephan Myburgh, Ben Cooper, Colin Ackermann, Bas de Leede, Scott Edwards (wk), Ryan ten Doeschate, Pieter Seelaar (capt), Fred Klaassen, Paul van Meekeren, Brandon Glover Umpires: Joel Wilson (WIS), Richard Illingworth (ENG) TV Umpire: Aleem Dar (PAK) Match Referee: Jeff Crowe (NZL) With inputs from AFP
