With the brilliant spell, Bhuvneshwar Kumar equalled the record of teammate Jasprit Bumrah of most maiden overs in T20Is at 9. He also became the first Indian bowler to back consecutive maiden overs in T20 World Cup history.

India had earlier set a target of 180 in 20 overs for Netherlands after skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav starred with half-centuries. Kohli continued his scintillating form from the historic victory against Pakistan with a 62-run knock, going back not out along with Yadav who made a 25-ball fifty.
