England Lose First Match To Holland

No need for an opening ceremony - all the excitement took place on the pitch. England were humbled by the Netherlands at Lords in the World T20 curtain-raiser. Holland stunned the hosts, winning a fantastic match by scoring two runs off the last ball, and sending a seismic shock around the cricket world in the process. Superb performance by the Dutch, but goes without saying that England should never have let it happen. They can still qualify if they beat Pakistan on Sunday, but even then it's complicated. Post-mortem to follow tomorrow - can't face it now.
