The turning point in England versus the Netherlands World Cup match has to be England skipper Andrew Strauss's fine batting. He no only put a fast paced 88 on board but also forged a 105-run first wicket partnership with Kevin Petersen.
It was that partnership that eventually took the game away from the Dutch despite Ryan ten Doeschate scoring a career-best 119 and scalping two English wickets on the day.
Man-of-the-Match
Though The Netherlands lost the games but Ryan ten Doeschate earned the Man-of-the-Match award for his all round impressive performance. Apart from score 119 on the day he even claimed important wickets of Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell.
