So, that's a wrap on this first game in this double header in Abu Dhabi in the Group A clashes. Coming up in 40 minutes is Sri Lanka vs Namibia another Group A game. Sri Lanka to start favourites there. There is the India-England match we are covering as well tonight. So switch tabs to watch the upcoming matches. We are done for this one. This is Ayan Chatterjee signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Anurag Singh and Arjun Bhalla. Goodnight and have a nice evening everyone.  More cricket to come on Cricket Exchange and One Cricket from across the globe tonight and tomorrow onwards. Stay tuned! Good Bye!
The side chasing wins again in Abu Dhabi as I predicted. So, Ireland gets the two points and do their Net Run Rate no harm as they win with 29 balls to spare. It's the same opposite for the Netherlands I am afraid. Matches come thick and fast in this tournament and if you are in a losing streak, then things are doomed for you. They better turn things around soon. For Irish, their next challenge is against Sri Lanka on Wednesday.
Andrew Balbirnie | Winning captain: "Perfect game. Great with the ball. We were disciplined. Campher was great so was Adair and we capitalised well. I was confident with the reviews to be honest. I was happy with the chase. The way Paul batted by shutting the shops was brilliant and Campher hitting the winning runs was the icing on the cake. Yes there is always room for improvement and I am sure we will be up for it against Sri Lanka next. Happy to beat the Dutch finally in the World T20 Event"
Pietar Seelaar | Losing captain"Not the best powerplay, we didn't bat well. Then Campher came and changed it. Max showed some fight but it was too late, we were outplayed. Ball kept low some of it but to be honest no excuses we lost. We have to turn around quickly soon against Namibia. We have to do our basics right and do a lot better than we have so far. Got to turn it around in two day's time"
Curtis Campher | Player of the Match"I knew there was glove on it. I knew the hattrick was dead as well. To be honest, I hit the hard length, the skipper had faith in me and it worked. We have been disciplined with the ball and that did the job. Happy to get the job done with the bat getting a hit in the end is always nice. Getting the 1st win over Netherlands here to start out tournament a dream come true"
Curtis Campher gets the Player of the Match award.
Ayan: So, a comprehensive win for Ireland over Netherlands in this Group A fixture as they win by 7 wickets with 29 balls to spare. It was fitting that Curtis Campher hit the winning runs as he was the chief destroyer for the Irish today. It's the first time that Ireland have beaten Netherlands in the T20 World Cup after two losses previously. What a turnaround by Ireland and how.
 
Netherlands won the toss and decided to bat first and that was it. Campher's 4 in 4 and then Adair as well 3-9. The batters completed the formalities. Delaney 44 off 29 sealing it. For the Dutch, nobody got going tonight except Max O'Dowd's 51 off 47 balls. Adair played the perfect supporting role with 3-9 after Campher's 4 in 4 in his 4-26. Stirling not out on 30 off 39 balls. We will hear from the captains soon. 
15.1 P Seelaar to C Campher
1 The first win for Ireland over Netherlands in T20 World Cup and quite rightly so Curtis Campher hits the winning runs. Floater on the stumps to Campher who works this to the mid wicket region for a single to win the game for his side.
