The hosts were in action first up against Jersey with the visitors put into bat by Dutch captain Scott Edwards. Zak Tribe top scored for Jersey with 39, with Charlie Brennan's unbeaten 32 towards the end of their innings helping them post 160-7 from their 20 overs. The Netherlands took almost their full quota of overs to chase down their target but that probably flattered Jersey a little. After Michael Levitt was bowled by Harrison Carlyon in the first over, Max O'Dowd and Zach Lion-Cachet added 101 for the second wicket before the latter was out for 50.
