Top 5 Biggest Upsets in 20-20 World Cup History
1. Netherlands vs England 2009
After Ravi Bopara (46 in 34 balls) and Luke Wright (71 in 49 balls) added 102 in 68 balls for the opening wicket, England should have scored more than 162-5. When they reduced the Dutch to 23-2, England should have been sure to win the match.
The Netherlands recovered, with Tom de Grooth’s 30-ball 49, Peter Borren’s 25-ball 30, and Ryan ten Doeschate’s 17-ball 25 not out. The debutants in the 20-20 World Cup defeated the hosts, and the English faces at Lords were stunned.
