- Scotland vs Netherlands – 7 runs:
The Desert T20 challenge in the first half of the year played in UAE churned out some fascinating games between the emerging nations. When Scotland took on 2016 World T20 participants, Netherlands, an extremely close encounter was witnessed, as the two young teams fought it out in the testing conditions of the Middle East.
Needing 149 to win the game, Netherlands lost wickets at frequent intervals, and apart from their openers, no one could consolidate. Hence, the Scottish got home by seven runs, as the Netherlands were bowled out for 141.
