Bowlers led by Bas de Leede helped The Netherlands edge out the United Arab Emirates by three wickets in a tense low-scoring match of the T20 World Cup on Sunday. 


Skipper Scott Edwards stood unbeaten on 16 as the Netherlands chased down their target of 112 with one ball to spare in the second match of the day in Geelong. 


UAE pace spearhead Junaid Siddique returned figures of 3-24 and put the opposition in trouble with two wickets in the 14th over, but Edwards held his nerve to get his team off to a win in round one. 


De Leede, an all-rounder who is a pace bowler, led the charge with his three wickets to keep down the UAE to 111-8.
