New Zealand Vs Netherlands Match Prediction

Preview

New Zealand Vs Netherlands, the last time New Zealand and the Netherlands faced of in T20I was back in 2014. It was a close encounter in the 2014 T20 World Cup, and one which was followed by a huge gap in encounters between the two sides.

New Zealand are coming in with some changes as they are without the likes of Kane Williamson who is injured. The IPL bound players are also unavailable, giving New Zealand a chance to try some new players.

Netherlands also have decent squad, but will be without Ryan Ten Doeschate, who has retired after the World Cup.
