New Delhi: Many exciting matches are being seen in the T20 World Cup this year. In such a situation, something similar was seen in the Group-2 match of Super-12 today. Where, the Netherlands defeated Zimbabwe (NED vs ZIM) in the match played in Adelaide. Zimbabwe had to face defeat by 5 wickets in this match. Not only this, now Zimbabwe is almost out of the race for the semi-finals.
Zimbabwe’s team is at number four in the points table with 3 points from 4 matches. The team has to play its last match against India. In which he will have to depend on the results of other teams apart from winning. At the same time, the Netherlands may have managed to win this match, but the team will not get any benefit from this victory. Because, the Netherlands team has already been out of the T20 World Cup. However, the good thing about this win is that the team has opened the account of its victory.
