4:38pm Not a very big score but more than just something to play with for the hosts. The lively atmosphere - thanks partly to the DJ at the venue - gets Its voice thanks to a good finish by Netherlands. It was an excellent innings from captain Edwards that kept them on course to get more. He was involved in crucial partnerships with de Leede and Nidamanuru before falling to an accurate throw from Willey. Snater then added 44 off just 27 balls with van Beek, who struggled for a large part before finding his touch, to help Netherlands finish strong.

For England, Willey and Rashid picked up two wickets each but went for a few towards the end. Carse was impressive with his high pace and variations and so was Topley, who varied his lengths effectively. It should be quite easy for England, given their exploits in the last game. But this game has its own ways of throwing a surprise or two. Alan will be here with the chase in half an hour.

Anurag Ranjan: "Will England try to play it like a proper T20, tryin to chase down the target in 20 overs , What's ur take @S Sudarshanan ? Btw I have a gut feeling that they will." They know only one way, isn't it? ;)
