Guernsey vs Netherlands Highlights, ICC T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier 2025: O'Dowd Shines As NED Win By 73 Runs
Guernsey vs Netherlands Highlights: Netherlands cruised to a dominant 73-run victory over Guernsey in their ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier clash at The Hague. After opting to bat first, Max O’Dowd led the way with a blistering 92 off 57 balls, helping the Dutch post a formidable 172/1. In response, Guernsey faltered early and never recovered, eventually folding for just 99. Michael Levitt starred with the ball, taking 3 for 11, as the Netherlands continued their strong run in the tournament
Electing to bat first, the Dutch posted a flattering 172 for 1 in their 20 overs, powered by an explosive 92 off 57 balls from Max O’Dowd—featuring 11 fours and a six—with captain Scott Edwards steadying the innings with 48 not out.
Guernsey’s reply faltered early, slumping to 77 for 6 by just the 15th over. Although Zak Damarell and Ben Ferbrache showed some resistance, their efforts were inadequate. The Netherlands’ bowlers delivered a disciplined performance, with Michael Levitt particularly impressive, claiming three wickets for just 11 runs—his late burst sealing the win.
Saqib Zulfiqar added two more wickets, while Bas de Leede and Roelof van der Merwe chipped in with one each, ensuring Guernsey were bundled out for 99.
