Sikandar Raza to Fred Klaassen
OUT! LBW! Raza has four and he has completely demolished the Dutch batting line-up. Quicker one, flatter and around off, Fred Klaassen chooses to stay back and work it on the leg side but misses. He is struck on the pads, they appeal and the finger goes up. 4-1-8-4 - This is Sikandar Raza's incredible bowling effort.
