Vikramjit Singh clean bowled by Bhuvneshwar Kumar

After bowling a maiden in the first over – his eighth in T20Is, Bhuvneshwar broke through. Left-handed Vikramjit Singh looked to pull a length ball but missed and the ball struck the bails. Netherlands are one down for just 11.

Rohit Sharma scored a half-century, Virat Kohli finished unbeaten on 62 off 44 while Suryakumar blasted his way to a 25-ball 51 as their collective efforts pushed India to 179/2. India had moved to just 67/1 in 10 overs, but upped the tempo in the second half of the innings to post a formidable total.
