\n

Dutch all-rounder Bas de Leede took four wickets as Pakistan were bowled out for 286 in the World Cup on Friday, derailing an innings which featured half-centuries from Saud Shakeel and Mohammad Rizwan.<\/p>\n

De Leede finished with 4-62 to bring the Netherlands back into the game after Shakeel struck an attractive 52-ball 68 and Rizwan\u2019s 75-ball 68 boosted Pakistan after they were sent in to bat.<\/p>\n

The match is being played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands justified the decision to bowl first as pacer Logan van Beek had out-of-form opener Fakhar Zaman caught and bowled for 12 in the fourth over.<\/p>\n

Spinner Colin Ackermann then claimed the prized wicket of Pakistan skipper Babar Azam for five before Paul van Meekeren dismissed Imam-ul-Haq for 15 to leave Pakistan tottering at 38-3.<\/p>\n

Shakeel and Rizwan \u2014 playing their first World Cup match \u2014 steadied the innings with a solid 120-run stand for the fourth wicket but three wickets fell in the space of 24 balls for 30 runs.<\/p>\n

Shakeel, who struck nine boundaries and a six, miscued a sweep off-spinner Aryan Dutt before De Leede bowled Rizwan and had Iftikhar Ahmed for nine.
\nRizwan hit eight boundaries.<\/p>\n

Pakistan were further lifted as Mohammad Nawaz (39) and Shadab Khan (32) added 64 for the seventh wicket but De Leede dismissed Shadab and Hasan Ali off successive deliveries.<\/p>\n

Nawaz was run out in the 47th over before Haris Rauf\u2019s dismissal off Ackermann finished the innings in 49 overs.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands won the toss and elected to bowl first against Pakistan in the first game of the World Cup for both sides.<\/p>\n

Pakistan picked two frontline spinners in Shadab Khan and Mohammad Nawaz alongside fast bowlers Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf and Hasan Ali.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands, the only Associate side in the World Cup, have Roelof van der Merwe, Aryan Dutt, and Saqib Zulfiqar as their spin options.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, team director Mickey Arthur said<\/a> Pakis\u00adtan will embrace the ultra-aggressive approach that has worked wonders for some of their World Cup rivals and add their own touch to it.<\/p>\n

Speaking in Hyderabad, Arthur said the 1992 champions were good enough to claim a second title with a brand of cricket similar to that played by the likes of England and Australia.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe players have embraced it. It\u2019s going to take a little bit of time, but I always say there\u2019s always two ways to skin a cat,\u201d Arthur, who was in charge of Pakistan as coach from 2016 to 2019 before returning in April, told reporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur bowling attack is up there as one of the best and with runs on the board our bowlers can generally defend that. You watch England and Australia playing this brand of cricket. Our guys will follow that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no doubt about that. They\u2019re good enough to do that. But we\u2019re playing a brand that we call the Pakistan way. We\u2019re playing a brand that\u2019s very particular to Pakistan and suits our team dynamic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s a brand that we\u2019re going to hopefully win the World Cup with.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arthur hopes his players will have two wins under their belts before they face old rivals India in the eagerly-awaited World Cup blockbuster.<\/p>\n

Arthur said his team will, however, be focused on the Netherlands rather than India.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not getting too far ahead of ourselves,\u201d said Arthur. \u201cFirst of all, the boys love being in India, which is fantastic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pressure of a World Cup is always massive. But I think our boys are in a really good place.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pakistan appointed Arthur in April this year for a second stint, doubling up on his job with Derbyshire in the English county championship.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Nether\u00adlands all-rounder Bas de Leede said his team have done their homework to try and counter star fast bowler Shaheen in their match on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Dutch side will face Shaheen for the first time as the left-armer missed Pakistan\u2019s 3-0 ODI series win against them last year with a knee injury.<\/p>\n

De Leede hopes his team can negate the threat of Shaheen more successfully than they fared against Australia\u2019s Mitchell Starc, who took a hat-trick in a rained-off warm-up match in Thiruvananthapuram.<\/p>\n

\u201cShaheen has been a focus point for us in our preparation and also our analysis,\u201d De Leede said on the eve of the match.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, hopefully we\u2019re going to play him better than we did against Starc the other day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shaheen will partner fellow quick Haris Rauf after 20-year-old Naseem Shah, the third member of Pakistan\u2019s feared pace attack, was ruled out of the tournament with a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously Shaheen and Haris Rauf are two quality pacers, something we don\u2019t face too often is left-arm swing. It was a little bit of a wake-up call for us against Mitchell Starc the other day.\u201d<\/p>\n

De Leede said they have a reasonable idea of what to expect from Pakistan.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, having played Pakistan last year in Rotterdam in three ODIs, it\u2019ll be nice to sort of be familiar with the team and the players and stuff, having played them before.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pakistan team: Fakhar Zaman, Imamul Haq, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands team: Vikramjit Singh, Max O\u2019Dowd, Colin Ackermann, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Scott Edwards, Saqib Zulfiqar, Logan van Beek, Roelof van der Merwe, Aryan Dutt and Paul van Meekeren.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
