Sri Lanka bounced back to beat the United Arab Emirates (UAE) comprehensively in their second clash after losing to Namibia in their opening encounter. The big win over the UAE has helped them boost their net run rate and keep their Super 12 hopes alive
Meanwhile, the Dutch side is having an excellent tournament so far. They have already beaten UAE and Namibia but will face a tougher challenge in front of the former T20 champions. To note, the Netherlands have never defeated Sri Lanka in the past.
