South Africa was left surprised the last time the two sides played in the T20 World Cup in 2022. Not only did South Africa lose, but they were also knocked out after the famous C-word came to light again. This time, South Africa will not be looking at the Netherlands lightly. They have been in really good form and are in a really strong streak with the bat.

The Netherlands have lost both games but are showing some fight. They’ve been good at parts but to recreate an upset they will need to come good collectively.

SA vs NED Key Players

Bas De Leede

Bas De Leede has been marked as a player to keep an eye on in this tournament. His skills were on display in the very first game as he single-handedly kept the heat on Pakistan. Taking four wickets and scoring 60-odd, Bas De Leede has shown that he has the ability to contribute equally with both bat and ball.

Quinton De Kock

Quinton De Kock has been in red-hot form after a tough lead-up to the tournament. Two centuries in consecutive games shows that he is looking to go out how he came in, and the aggression showed at the top has been commendable so far.

SA vs NED Match Tips

South Africa remain favorites with a longer format and some really good form, unlike their shaky form last time the two sides met in the T20 World Cup.

Match Prediction: South Africa Will Win the Match

SA vs NED Match Preview

The South Africa vs Netherlands, 15th Match of the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup 2023 will be played at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, Dharamsala. The Proteas are flying high after two wins in their first two matches of the flagship tournament. But the Dutch are in the bottom half of the table after two straight losses. South Africa defeated the Netherlands in one-sided contests in their two previous ODIs earlier this year, a trend that could continue in their upcoming match.

Topmost Picks for SA vs NED Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – South Africa

• Quinton de Kock – The keeper-batter hit 12 fours and three sixes at the top of the order against Sri Lanka. He has performed at the top level for the past ten years and he will relish this clash against Netherlands in Lucknow.
• Marco Jansen – Marco Jansen looks in good form with the bat and ball. He smashed a six and remained not-out and then he picked 2 wickets with the ball but went little expensive

Top Picks – Netherlands

• Vikramjit Singh- the 20 year old opening batter looks set for an impressive Cricket World Cup. The left-hander produced 52 runs from 67 balls at the top of the order against a very strong Pakistan bowling unit.
• Bas de Leede- the young all-rounder was not far off producing a Player of the Match Performance against Pakistan. He took 4-62 with the ball before his strong batting effort and he will be keen to take the field once more.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for SA vs NED Dream11 Team:

Quinton de Kock, Vikramjit Singh, Temba Bavuma, Bas de Leede(C), Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Marco Jansen, Kagiso Rabada(VC), Keshav Maharaj, Roelof van der Merwe

SA vs NED Probable Winners

With South Africa playing brilliant cricket in this format in recent weeks and the Netherlands a few levels below the top sides in this tournament, this game appears to be a mismatch. South Africa is a legitimate contender for the Cricket World Cup trophy in 2023, and we don’t expect the Netherlands to cause them too many problems. There may be moments with the openers when the Netherlands look impressive, but they lack depth in their team. Our prediction is that South Africa will win big. Considering the team combination, South Africa is expected to win this match.

South Africa moves a step closer as they head into their Final game before their chances to increase their points tally comes to end. With a strong win against the Netherlands in the first game, South Africa continues to remain in with a chance and now that Sri Lanka too is out of contention for direct qualification, South Africa can breathe a touch easier.

SA vs NED Key Players

Roelof Van Der Merwe

Roelof Van Der Merwe holds the key for Netherlands. He played a central role in their win over South Africa in the World Cup and given his experience of playing for and in South Africa, he could make an impact if he finds comfort early.

Quinton De Kock

Quinton De Kock has been in pretty good form up top. He has been getting his side off to solid starts but has also been rather unnoticed for his performances, providing silent contributions for his side upfront.

SA vs NED Match Tips

South Africa, with a full-strength side, walks in as favorites in their own conditions.

Match Prediction: South Africa Will Win the Match

A full strength South African unit gathers to keep South Africa’s chances of making the World Cup alive. Normally, South Africa may not field a full eleven with a home game against Netherlands so close to the IPL. However, with a lot on the line, Netherlands now have a chance of making some noise against a full fledged South African team. This is the second ODI of the series with the first being washed out back in 2021, and the series continuing from there.
