33 matches and 21 days later, a tournament that started with 10 teams is now one game away from its conclusion with two sides, Sri Lanka and the Netherlands, who confirmed their spot in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 will be up against each other in the final. The tournament saw some of the most thrilling games, with less fancied sides punching above their weight while the mighty West Indies disappointed big time as they lost to Zimbabwe, the Netherlands, Scotland and Sri Lanka as their downward slide in white-ball cricket continued.
The Netherlands, Zimbabwe and Scotland were outstanding in the tournament running the big teams close and upsetting some of the stronger opponents. Scotland and Zimbabwe will feel unlucky to not have qualified since it's just a 10-team tournament but they will be proud of their efforts. While Sri Lanka were expected to be one of the teams to make it to the World Cup, the Dutch toppled the Scots as they pulled off a heist to chase down 278 runs in just 42.5 overs.
The Netherlands lost one of their Super Six games to Sri Lanka which they should have won and will be hoping to avenge the loss and finish what they started.
