Ackerman gifting his wicket away is a classic example.

 

I think De Leede is in too early for NED to have a successful chase of 287 tbh.  He should have come in after the 25th over ideally - to 'manage' and finish the chase.  Now if they lose him before getting close, every chance of a choke.  As it is they are far, far from the finish line.  

 

Pak bowling is essentially left with Shaheen and prayers.   Rauf is  always expensive unless the team is scared of his pace, Hassan blows hot/cold and is gareebon ka Shardul  but doesn't take even half as many wickets.  Shadab has regressed to a part-timer that you pray can give you a few decent overs.  Nawaz is tidy at best, but no wicket-taking threat.  

 

Problem for NED is that outside of their top 4, the rest are bunnies against spin.  So this partnership has to bat for another 20 overs at least for them to start hoping of an upset.  

They're the stereotypical minnow hwo bat quite deep though. Even their bowlers are capable of swinging the bat and hitting 6s.
