India vs Netherlands, 36th Match, Group A, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Logan van Beek to Tilak Varma, out Caught by Roelof van der Merwe!! Now, that's the Dutch way. van der Merwe has pulled off a stunner. Mind you, he is 41 years old but that does not matter. Fullish slower ball, Tilak reaches outside off and lofts it wide of long-off. Not sure he middled it as the ball didn't have the legs to clear the rope. van der Merwe runs to his right and flies sideways to clasp it with both hands. He went reverse cup and got it right in the middle of his hands. The ball was in his control even as he hit the ground, got up and nonchalantly threw the ball up, looked at the crowd and gave one of those impressions - this is how you do it.
