KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent (AP) — The Netherlands chose to bowl first against Bangladesh in a crucial Twenty20 World Cup match delayed by a wet outfield on Thursday.
Rain briefly delayed the morning toss, then both teams had to wait for Arnos Vale to dry out.
Bangladesh was unchanged after losing to South Africa on Monday while the Dutch made one change, bringing in off-spinner Aryan Dutt for Teja Nidamanuru.
The winner will be on the brink of joining Group D leader South Africa in the Super 8.
