Netherlands vs Pakistan 2nd ODI Match Prediction

Preview

Netherlands vs Pakistan: Netherlands are struggling to keep up with good teams. They have some growing players but are still behind the likes of Ireland, who are generating greater quality in their players. Pakistan on the other hand are doing well to test their bench strength in Shaheen Shah Afridi’s absence.

The bowling looks good and the batting is pretty settled with a steady batting line-up full of batters who can play patiently and change gears when the situation demands. While Pakistan’s middle order does not have too many players who can go hard from ball one, they can be explosive when settled and this characteristic will help them in the fifty over format as they will be able to bat long, and build wellf or the end.

Key Players

Scott Edwards

Captain Scott Edwards has a task ahead. He has to get past Babar Azam, who is probably the best batter in the World at the moment. As a batter, he is pretty solid with his style of play but it is his leadership which will be important in the upcoming game.

Babar Azam

Babar Azam is the leading batter in the World at the moment. He is scoring runs with ease and should find it easy to do the same against Netherlands. With some challenging games after this series, runs scored here are important as it allows him to spend some quality time out in the middle.

Netherlands vs Pakistan Match Tips

A one-sided affair is expected. Pakistan are full-strength and Netherlands are not in their greatest period, making it an easy sighting for Pakistan
