ICC World Cup 2023: Netherlands came into their first World Cup in 12 years with an aim of reaching the semifinals, and captain Scott Edwards was happy to get the first win "out of the way" by stunning South Africa here on Tuesday. The 38-run win was Netherlands` first against a Test playing nation in World Cup history.
"We came in with high expectations. We had very good players. Happy to get the first win out of the way. Hopefully, few more wins on the way," said Edwards, who made a match winning 78 not out. Netherlands had pushed Pakistan in their tournament opener before going down against New Zealand.
