The England team already made their goals exceptionally clear to start with itself by hitting strong fours and sixers across the boundaries. The fascinating this during the match was when Dawid Malan was pronounced out when was at only 25 runs while the Dutch captain was bowling yet later the choice made by the on-field umpire ended up being incorrectly by the savior third umpire.
