West Indies will have zero points going into the Super Six of World Cup 2023 Qualifier and must win all three of their remaining games to stand a chance of reaching the World Cup in India that starts in October.

They posted 374 for six in their 50 overs, but a superb 111 from 76 balls by Netherlands batsman Teja Nidamanuru allowed the Dutch to tie the game and set up a super over.
