The United Arab Emirates displayed a sub-par performance with the bat as they managed to post just 111/8 in their quota of 20 overs. While the batting of the UAE team was not much entertaining, the innings end brought out a funny incident for the viewers.  

In the penultimate ball of the 20th over, Netherlands bowler Klaassen managed to dismiss Aayan Khan for 5 runs. While the dismissal was ordinary, the batter’s walk to the pavilion left viewers in splits as the batter fell awkwardly after his right foot got stuck on the boundary rope.

UAE suffers heartbreaking loss

Despite posting a sub-par total of 111 runs on board, UAE bowled their hearts out as they didn't allow Netherlands to chip away runs easily. At one point. UAE were in the driver's seat as they had reduced Netherlands to 75/6 courtesy Junaid Siddique's brilliant spell. However, the lower order didn't lose their composure and chase down the target in the final over to take Netherlands home.
