Things started off well for Netherlands who managed to reduce the tourists to 5 for 1 getting rid of Jason Roy. Phil Salt came to England’s’ rescue and helped himself to a well-deserved century. He ended up scoring 122 runs from 93 balls with Dawid Malan also recording 125 runs in 109 balls. Malan also went on to be the third Englishman to score a century in all three formats of the game. The duo managed to stich up a match winning 200-plus run stand during their stay on the crease.
