- Dutch stronger than Canada in first T20I

The Dutch men’s team has won the first T20I against Canada. Kyle Klein (three wickets) led the attack, whilst Michael Levitt and Vikram Singh were important in the Dutch reply to the 152 Canadese runs.
As first change Kyle Klein (3-31) went through the top order like a hot knife through butter. At 58/4 the Dutch seemed to be in an ideal situation. However, with an unbeaten 72 run partnership Nicholas Kirton (69 not out) and Ravinderpal Singh (39 not out off 18 deliveries) brought Canada (152/5) back in the game.
