ICC World Twenty20 live cricket score: Fiery South Africa face The Netherlands

Both teams are coming from contrasting wins. While The Netherlands registered the lowest T20 total ever vs Sri Lanka, South Africa pipped past New Zealand and are on an incredible high. Catch updates from the encounter here.

South Africa will be looking to collect full points, without breaking into a sweat. After all, the threat posed by the Dutch has reduced considerably after their shabby showing in their previous outing. The Netherlands though can possibly catch the African giants sleeping and create a huge upset in their ICC World Twenty20 match. (Scorecard | Commentary | Points Table )

South Africa have not been in their prime form in the ICC WorldT20 tournament so far. The team lost its first match against Sri Lanka. Although the margin was just 5 runs, the performance was not much to write about. Even in the second match, Kiwis were on top for most parts of the game. It all changed in the final over of the match when Dale Steyn bowled a splendid spell and helped his side to a 2-run win. (Scorecard)

The Netherlands however came to the Super-10s looking to make Associate Nations proud. Instead, what unfolded against Sri Lanka was humiliating - a match that ended in a total of 15 overs! Now, the Dutch side will be eying to last rather than create an upset. With several power-hitters in the side, the Dutch continue to be a skilled unit though.
