Thanks for joining me, Kate, Chandan and Vairavan over the course of the series. Good night from all of us here

Myburgh is the player of the match: Difference today from the previous games is that I was positive. Previously we played on survival mode. Today, we looked to score runs. We made them bowl to us. It paid off for us today. I feel really bad about not scoring the winning runs. I still feel I have another couple of years left in me.

van Beek is the player of the series: It's a shock because there were a lot of other guys who contributed throughout the series. For the first two games, I was struggling with my arm position. Things started working from yesterday. 220 , on this pitch, would've been tough. We are happy to walk off with 20 points from the series.

Balbirnie, the Ireland Captain: We won the toss and the pitch didn't misbehave as we thought it would. Hats off to Dutch. They deserved to win. We didn't bat out the 50 overs. Small things matter. We are disappointed the way we played. Pitches can't be used as an excuse. It went up and down for all the 100 overs. There are no excuses we are going to make. We have a couple of big series coming up. Every point we pick up is going to be important. The two games we lost, we lost three wickets quickly.

Seelaar, the Netherlands Captain: We can be happy. These are the 30 points we were playing for. Good toss to lose. There was something happening in the morning from the wicket. Tector and Dockrell batted well. They seemed they will get to 220. van Beek changed the game. All three games were fantastic for Klaasen. (Myburgh) is known for his quick starts. Whatever he said in the meeting yesterday, he put it on the ground today. We were too nervous (at the fall of 3 quick wickets towards the end). We shouldn't forget that we got 10 points from this game and 20 from the series

The captains have made it obvious that points is what they were after. Netherlands get 20 points from this 3-match series. Myburgh played an epic on this pitch to lead from the front for Netherlands.

Simi Singh to Seelaar, OUT

fuller ball on the stumps. Seelaar wants to sweep and he misses. As plumb as one can be. Poor choice of stroke again. Will this wicket revive Ireland's hopes ?

has he committed a mistake here ? Yes, he has! Flighted ball on the stumps. He comes down the track and lofts it straight into the hands of the fielder at mid on. Poor choice of a stroke but only two runs to get. Might be excused

review for lbw by Ireland. Good length delivery outside the off stump. Impact is returned as umpire's call as it was marginally outside the off stump. Good review but unlucky

Simi Singh to Myburgh, OUT

wanted to finish it with a slog sweep. Misses and is bowled. A tame end to a superb innings. One that probably got them the 10 points they were after
