PAK vs NED Match Preview

On Tuesday afternoon and evening, the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad will host the Pakistan vs. Netherlands World Cup Warm-Up match. Pakistan were defeated by New Zealand by 5 wickets on Friday, while the Netherlands’s game against the Netherlands ended in a draw. Pakistan has been playing some excellent one-day international cricket over the last 18 months, but has struggled in recent games. This will be a difficult match against Netherlands. Netherlands had been on a bad run before beating India at the end of their ODI series, and they were leading against the Netherlands on Saturday before the rain came. This will provide a good indication of their skill level.

Topmost Picks for PAK vs NED Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Pakistan

• Babar Azam – The 28 year old right-hander is a very calm character with the bat and in the field. He hit 151 only three ODI innings ago at the start of the 2023 Asia Cup.
• Shaheen Shah Afridi – the left-arm quick bowler will be relishing the opportunity to bowl at some of the big name Netherlands batters in Hyderabad.

Top Picks – Netherlands

• Colin Ackermann – The experienced batting all-rounder showed he had the ability to stand up to Australia’s pace bowlers in their warm-up game. He averages 35.16 from six innings in this format.
• Max O’Dowd – Max O’Dowd is the first Netherlands player to score a century in the T20Is. He is a fine batter who has plenty of different shots as his skills.

PAK vs NED Probable Winners:

This game may not have the same buzz as England vs. New Zealand on Thursday, but it could have plenty of tense moments. Our prediction is that Pakistan will come out on top, with the Netherlands’ bottom order unlikely to make significant contributions. If the Netherlands are to be competitive, they must improve their number of match winners, but they are up against a very good team. We expect Pakistan to get off to a strong start. Considering the team combination, Pakistan is expected to win this match.
