Netherlands (150/6 in 20 overs) lost to UAE (153/3 in 19.4 overs) by 7 wickets on August 8, 2019.
Only 5 T20Is have been played at this venue in 10 years. The wicket has always been bouncy and helps the seamers a lot. Batters just have to be careful against the new ball especially in the powerplays, but once it is done batting gets really easy here.

The newly appointed skipper Scott Edwards has an uphill task at his disposal. This is the first instance when he will be captaining Netherlands regularly against a top Test playing nation. Edwards is a good striker of the ball and will be a key to success in the batting unit.
