Sri Lanka came into the T20 World Cup with high hopes. In the end, those hopes were dashed thanks to the abysmal batting performance by the 2014 T20 World Cup winners. Barring Pathum Nissanka and NuwanThusara, none of the players stood up and showed their real talents on the field.
Netherlands have been one of the most dynamic sides in ICC events in recent times. The team is filled with youth and experience, and their natural flair on the field makes them an exciting bunch. After starting the campaign with a win over Nepal, the Dutch saw their campaign come apart with losses to South Africa and Bangladesh.
