Floyd was also the standout performer for Netherlands XI in their opening win over Romania asGroup B action got underway in Spain on Monday. Floyd returned figures of 2-0-10-3 in the game with his left-arm floaters to walk away with the Player of the Match award. The canny spinner broke the back of Romania's batting middle-order, taking out their skipper Ramesh Satheesan, wicketkeeper batsman Satwik Nadigotla and Sami Ullah to help Netherlands XI to a huge win.
While he ended wicketless against Portugal in the fifth match of Group B, Floyd opened the batting and slammed a 15-ball 34 with three sixes and as many fours.
