Match Prediction: India Will Win the Match

IND vs NED Match Preview

The group stage of the 2023 Cricket World Cup concludes on Sunday with India taking on the Netherlands in Bengaluru. India are already guaranteed to finish first in their group and enter this game with a perfect record after winning eight of their eight games. Although it will be tempting to rest players, we expect India to press on and look to continue building momentum, with the possibility of winning every game remaining. When they qualified earlier this year, the Netherlands kept the West Indies and Zimbabwe out of this tournament, and they have justified their place in the competition with victories over South Africa and Bangladesh.

Topmost Picks for IND vs NED Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – India

• Rohit Sharma- the skipper took the attack to the South African bowling attack hitting 40 runs from 24 balls including eight boundaries. He set the tone in the match and will look to do the same in this game.
• Mohammed Shami- the right arm fast bowler dismissed the dangerous Rassie van der Dussen and in-form Aiden Markram against South Africa and continues to bowl with remarkable accuracy.

Top Picks – Netherlands

• Scott Edwards- the captain hit a six and three fours against England and is the only member of his side’s batting line-up to be averaging over 40 in this competition.
• Paul van Meekeren – The right-arm pace bowler has impressed with his ability to dismiss top order batters across this campaign. He comes into this match after taking the wicket of Pathum Nissanka in Lucknow last time out.

IND vs NED Match Preview

The 2023 World Cup Warm-Up match between India and the Netherlands will take place on Tuesday in Thiruvananthapuram. The rain cut short both teams’ first warm-up game, though the Netherlands did get 37 overs in against Australia. In home conditions, India will have no trouble defeating the Netherlands. We anticipate that their batting and bowling lineups will be too strong for the opposition. Before the rain came down on Saturday, the Netherlands appeared to be on the verge of losing to Australia. We expect them to be outplayed throughout the game.

Topmost Picks for IND vs NED Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – India

• Shubman Gill – The right-hander is preparing for his first ODI World Cup but comes into this game in very strong form. He has hit six centuries in ODI cricket.
• Jasprit Bumrah – The right-arm pace bowler is recognised as one of the best across all international formats. After a long period out injury, he looks fully fit and back to his best.

Top Picks – Netherlands

• Colin Ackermann – The batting all-rounder was one of only a couple of Netherlands batters who were able to deal with Mitchell Starc. He will look to do the same against India’s attack.
• Logan van Beek – The right arm medium fast bowler picked up the wickets of opener Josh Inglis and skipper Pat Cummins in the last game.

IND vs NED Probable Winners:

In a rain-shortened game, the Netherlands caused Australia a few problems with the ball but struggled against a world-class bowling attack. We expect much of the same in this game, with India winning by a large margin. Considering the team combination, India is expected to win this match.

T20 World Cup’22, IND vs NED: India 179 for 2 (Kohli 62*, Rohit 53, Suryakumar 51*) beat Netherlands 123 for 9 (Bhuvneshwar 2-9, Axar 2-18) by 56 runs

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Suryakumar Yadav’s fifty-plus innings set the stage for India to defeat the Netherlands and rise to the top of Group 2 with a healthy increase in net run-rate. India put on a classic display of controlled dominance over Associate opposition by choosing to bat first on an SCG surface that was significantly slower than the one they played their tournament-opener on at the MCG. They posted a par-ish total and defended it ruthlessly.

The Netherlands never got into the game, chasing 180, and it looked like they might be bowled out for less than 100 for a while. Both the No. and that fate were spared.11 Paul van Meekeren scored 4, 4, 4 off Arshdeep Singh to end the innings and reduce their deficit, but it was still a resounding 56 runs.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep, Axar Patel, and R Ashwin each took two wickets, while Mohammed Shami took one. India’s five specialist bowlers shared the wickets.

HIGHLIGHTS

A costly non-review

The brand-new ball swung and occasionally hit the batter as well. Van Meekeren also picked up a well-earned early wicket after KL Rahul missed the flick off a late inswinger, and India scored just 11 runs in the first 2.4 overs of their innings.Despite Rohit’s apparent suggestion that the ball might have been swinging down the leg side, Rahul did not reconsider the decision; Rohit was ultimately proven wrong by ball-tracking.

Three approaches, three fifties

On this slow surface, Rohit struggled with fluency, but he kept pushing the limits. He survived a missed opportunity—Tim Pringle hit a sitter at mid-on with India on 13—and ended his innings with a control percentage of just under 59. However, he kept the scoreboard moving in the first 12 overs of India’s innings because he was prepared to look ugly. He hit 53 of 39 shots; The two batters at the other end, Rahul and Kohli, combined to score 28 runs off 31 while he was at the plate.

In the end, Kohli had a control percentage of 75.Kohli had a control percentage of 81 when Rohit was at the other end for the first 21 balls of his innings. He chose to trust in his ability to score quickly once set, in contrast to Rohit, and did not take risks early on. He did this, and in the last five overs, he found the boundary more frequently, scoring 30 runs off 14 balls after scoring 32 runs off 30 balls before that.

In the meantime, Suryakumar did something that only he and a few others in the world can do. In his first twelve balls at the crease, he shuffled in and out, used his wrists to whip and slice the ball into gaps, and found the boundary five times. A jaw-dropping effort on a sluggish pitch, but one that you might take for granted given how frequently he does these things, he hit seven fours and a flicked six off the final ball of the innings to finish unbeaten on 51 out of 25 balls.

India was successful in achieving their objectives on the day thanks to these three innings taken together. Suryakumar’s blistering start made it possible for Kohli to continue in that vein until the final five overs. The chances Rohit took early on came up frequently enough for Kohli to start conservatively.

India’s score of 179 was their lowest in a T20I innings in which they have lost only two wickets or less. Hardik Pandya and Dinesh Karthik didn’t even bat, so it’s likely that India only wanted to make par against Associate opponents on a slow pitch.Against a stronger team, Kohli may have taken more risks early on.

Bhuvneshwar sets the tone for dominant bowling display

‘Max O’Dowd or bust’ has been a fair depiction of the Netherlands batting at this World Cup up to this point, and the early overs remained with that subject.In the second over, O’Dowd scored with two pleasing square drives off Arshdeep, but Bhuvneshwar went 2-2-0-1 and bowled with pinpoint accuracy to dismiss Vikramjit Singh, who was bowled swiping across the line.

O’Dowd was forced to create boundaries while the rest of the top order struggled, and when he tried to do so, he was kicked out, exposing all of his stumps to Axar and missing a sweep.

After that, the Netherlands’ challenge vanished as Axar and Ashwin sped them up in the middle overs before the fast bowlers returned to tidy up the lower order. Arshdeep was expensive early on, but he came back to take two wickets in two balls, a nasty bouncer and an inch-perfect yorker. When he started the final over, he was on a hat-trick. However, by the end of that, van Meekeren had given Netherlands fans something to cheer about, and his figures had taken a beating.
