Team India are on a roll in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, as they clinched their fourth consecutive win in the marquee event after an emphatic

\n\n

win against Netherlands at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

After winning the toss, India captain Suryakumar Yadav opted to bat. Abhishek Sharma continued his horror show with a third consecutive duck. Ishan Kishan gave some stability at the top with an 18-run cameo.

\n\n

Shivam Dubewas the star of the show for the hosts, scoring 66 runs in just 31 balls, which included four fours and six sixes. After somewhat sloppy batting in the first half of the innings, it was Dube’s knock that helped India reach 193 in their 20 overs. He was complimented well by Suryakumar Yadav (34 off 28 balls), Hardik Pandya (30 off 21 balls) and Tilak Varma. For Netherlands, Logan van Beek took three wickets, while Aryan Dutt took two wickets, including Abhishek’s in the very first over.

\n\n

In reply, the Dutch team gave India a good fight, scoring 176 in their 20 overs. However, the target proved too much for them as they lost the contest by 17 runs. All their top order batters, including Michael Lewitt (24 runs), Colin Ackerman (23 runs), and Bas de Leede (33 off 23 balls) got the starts but none could convert it.

From Indian bowling, it was yet another clinical performance as world No.1 T20I bowlerVarun Chakravarthy continued his dream form, picking up three wickets for just 14 runs in three overs, while Shivam Dube also picked up two to help his team win the contest.

Who Said What?

Shivam Dube, Player of the match

\n
I tried to hit boundaries. I tried to hit six. I enjoy hitting sixes, but the situation demands the bowler is good. I have to prepare myself to hit boundaries as well. Yeah, definitely, because I have worked in that way also, because I know all the bowlers, they're going to bluff me as well. They'll not bowl me yorkers or length balls. They're going to come short. They're going to bowl me slower balls. So I prepared myself, so I was waiting for that.\"
\n
\"When I came today, it was not that situation I can take the strike rate at high, but at some time there was, there was something I thought that this is the time I can go now. Yeah, definitely I'm working really hard towards my bowling and yeah, the results are coming, but yes, it's a T20 game. You're going to hit, you'll get hit sometime, but you'll take wickets as well.\"

Scott Edwards, Netherlands (Losing captain)

\n \"I thought a lot of credit to Aryan. He's been sensational for us for a few years now. And yeah, I thought he really sorted it up to them and almost got us that third wicket there. And yeah, we felt right in the game the whole way. (on restricting India for most of their innings) Yeah, absolutely. You know, we know they've got firepower right the way down. So, you know, to keep those guys under control for, you know, 14, 15 overs, was sensational. I thought, you know, maybe a couple of missed chances, maybe a little bit of misexecution and players like this will make you pay.\"\n

\n \"I think we played a lot of good cricket and then there were probably just a few moments. And when it's, when you only play four games, you've got to make those moments count. Well, all I'd say is we'll be better off with the learnings and hopefully better luck next time around.\"\n

Suryakumar Yadav, India (Winning captain)

\n
\"I'm very happy with the way things are moving on. The contribution is almost coming from every single batter. That's what I want, those small, small partnerships. When the game is a little tight, one or two might have a beautiful day, but then we need support from all the batters to get to a good score.\"
\n
\"I think we wanted to bat first. We went on to score 190 and then coming out, there was a little bit of dew, a little bit challenging for the bowlers, but all in all, at the end of the day, very happy. (happy to bat first) Exactly, I mean, we might be in a similar situation on the next day also. We might get a slow start, but it's very important for all the batters to understand what the responsibility is, how the wicket is playing in the middle overs. And then, later on, we have enough firepower with Hardik, Shivam, Rinku, Axar or Washi, anyone to finish the game nicely.\"
