The Netherlands and Nepal are set to face each other in match 7 of the T20 World Cup 2024 on Tuesday, June 4.
Nepal, who finished fourth in the ACC Men’s T20I Premier Cup in April, struggled in their preparations. They were heavily defeated by Canada in their first warm-up game, and their second match against co-hosts USA was called off without any play. Additionally, they will be missing key player Sandeep Lamichhane, as his US visa application was denied for the second time.
The Netherlands had a challenging home tri-series against Ireland and Scotland last month, ending in third place with one win and three losses. However, they bounced back by defeating Sri Lanka by 20 runs in their first warm-up match in Florida, although their second warm-up game was abandoned. Key players for the Netherlands include Max O’Dowd, the leading run-scorer of the tri-series with 1,774 runs in 66 T20Is, and Logan van Beek, the top wicket-taker in the tri-series with eight wickets at an average of 9.88.
Historically, the Netherlands and Nepal have faced each other 12 times in T20 matches, with the Netherlands winning 6 games, Nepal 5, and 1 match ending without a result. Both teams enter the tournament with modest expectations, aiming to gain valuable experience from their participation.
