T20 World Cup: Bangladesh strike early, Netherlands lose 6 quick wickets

In reply to Bangladesh’s 144, Netherlands lost three early wickets, with two in the first over bowled by Taskin Ahmed, and two fell to run-outs.

The Netherlands won the toss and opted to bowl first. Bangladesh posted 144 for eight. Taskin’s pace looked good for the Netherlands batters.

In the fourth over, Shakib Al Hasan came to bowl. Max ODowd hit him for a six off the first ball he bowled. But in the next ball, Max ODowd was trapped in run-out.

In the same over, Bangladesh sent back Netherlands captain Tom Cooper as well. 

Tom suffered a diamond duck — he didn't get a single ball to play before getting run-out.

At the end of thirteen overs, Netherlands were batting at 66 for six.
