New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum has hailed the Netherlands team as ‘courageous’ and said that the way the Dutch play is like ‘rocks and diamonds’.
Despite a humiliating defeat to Sri Lanka and six-run loss to South Africa, the Netherlands have played spectacular cricket in their two games at the ICC World T20 2014 Super-10 stage.
According to Stuff.co.nz, the Netherlands’ audacious attitude will present New Zealand with a tricky assignment on Saturday in their Group 1 match, and McCullum expressed admiration for his opponents’ trait and believes that they are a dangerous team to play as they do not fear defeats.
Stating that Dutch plays like ‘rock and diamonds’, McCullum also said that it would need a good bowling effort to restrain them in their match on Saturday, although he added that if they play well, then they can be strong enough to take on the Dutch.
