SIX! Brad Evans to Paul van Meekeren. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep backward square leg for 6 runs. Paul van Meekeren hits the winning runs, and the Netherlands win the match by three wickets. The Dutch batters started their run chase slower, but then Nidamanuru played remarkably to get his side to a special victory. A disappointing finish for Zimbabwe.
