New Zealand is preparing to face Netherlands in the sixth match of the competition on October 9 at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, hoping to maintain their impressive ODI World Cup 2023 run. The Netherlands, on the other hand, demonstrated promise with a competitive showing despite losing their most recent game to Pakistan.
By defeating England in their inaugural match, New Zealand got off to a fantastic start.
It is important to note that the Netherlands has never defeated New Zealand in an ODI match, thus this fact will probably be on the players’ minds as they strive for success. The hitters for New Zealand displayed their talent against England in the most recent encounter. It would be interesting to see if the Dutch squad can pull off an upset in this upcoming game given how well they have done this year against tough competition.
Will Young of New Zealand, who went scoreless in the previous game, is eager to start out strong alongside Devon Conway, who produced an incredible century. In the middle order, among players like Mark Chapman and James Neesham, Rachin Ravindra will want to score runs in tandem with Latham and Daryl Mitchell. He also played a standout innings.

Tim Southee and Lockie Ferguson were not present, but the Kiwi bowling team nevertheless put on a strong effort in the previous match. Boult and Southee are expected to both play in the forthcoming game, so New Zealand will be counting on them to pick up some early wickets like they did against England. While Ravindra, Mitchell, and Phillips provide the bowling attack diversity, Mitchell Santner and James Neesham will be entrusted with keeping tight spells during the middle overs.
Despite losing to Pakistan by 81 runs in their opening game, Scott Edwards’ Netherlands team shown tenacity. They had a big impact with the ball and will try to improve on it in this forthcoming game. As a result of their performance in the last game, Logan van Beek and Aryan Dutt are projected to score first. The middle overs will be crucial for Roelof van der Merwe, Ackermann, and Bas de Leede, especially given how aggressively New Zealand’s batsmen will approach them. Vikramjit Singh and Saqib Zulfiqar provide their bowling attack variety.
