With two wins in two games, having already beaten Nepal and Thailand in the group stage, the European nation were aware that they were only one positive result away from clinching qualification. With USA batting first, medium pace bowler Hannah Landheer picked up 3 for 30 to restrict them to 129 for 7 in 20 overs. A 57-run opening stand from Heather Siegers and Phebe Molkenboer put Netherlands in control of the chase but the heavens opened up after the 12th over. Netherlands were 90 for 2 at this stage and were 21 runs ahead of the DLS par score. As no further play was possible due to the unrelenting rain, they took the points and will board the flight to England and Wales, later this June.
