Netherlands won the toss and elected to bat first against India

Toss: Netherlands win and choose to bat. Peter Borren: "We have been a bit disappointing with the bat recently, and we have a chance first up to rectify that."

Pitch report: Sunny Gavaskar terms this pitch as "National Highway No. 6". Enough said! "The ball may keep a little low in the second innings, but this is a batsman's pitch alright."

Nice sunny day in the capital, and unlike the other day when Canada and Kenya faced off, the bizarrely shaped straight stands are filled with people. Expect a full house as we get into the evening.
