Opener Phil Salt sets up England’s run chase with a knock of 77 off 54 balls. A further wobble was avoided when Dawid Malan was given out lbw but reprieved on review. Salt was then bowled by Aryan Dutt which precipitated three wickets in 19 balls as Morgan was caught and Liam Livingstone was foxed pushing forward with his stumps rearranged by Tim Pringle – his first international wicket. Roy and Phil Salt, who again played with spirit for his 77, put on 139 before Roy came to a tame end for 73.

Roy had got England’s run chase off to a rollicking start, dispatching every other ball off the first over, from Logan van Beek, to the boundary: the first rippled past point, the third purred through the covers, the fifth zipped through the covers again.

Jason Roy, who was presented with his 100th cap before the match by Moeen Ali, with his wife and daughter alongside him, backed his captain all the way.

But on the day that the Netherlands captain, Pieter Seelaar, announced his retirement with a persistent back injury, small offerings are being made for Morgan’s form and fitness. The boisterous crowd were temporarily silenced as Morgan trudged off – the goodwill that travels with him after he transformed England from limited-overs losers to purveyors of the best white-ball cricket in the world means there is little appetite to replace him, either from fans, teammates or the selectors.
