The Netherlands bounced back strongly in the second T20I with a commanding 50-run victory, thanks to an exceptional performance from their skipper Scott Edwards. His sensational knock of 99 off 55 balls, supported by Noah Croes‘s quickfire 28, ensured that the Dutch side posted a formidable total of 185/6.

Netherlands’ Strategy: The Netherlands will aim to replicate their aggressive batting approach, supported by a strong bowling lineup featuring the likes of Timm van der Gugten and Roelof van der Merwe.

Key Performers:
