T20 World Cup 2022: India vs Netherlands, Super 12 – Dafanews Match Preview

India will play their second match of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 against the Netherlands at the SCG on Thursday. The Men in Blue had got off to a perfect start as they had beaten arch-rivals Pakistan by four wickets after Virat Kohli played one of the best knocks of his career on Sunday at the MCG.

We take a look at the current form, head-to-head, players to look out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

 

Current form of India: W L W W W

India has been in decent form in the recent past and they will look to continue the same against the Dutch. India’s bowling was right on the money against Pakistan and it was definitely a positive for the team as it was a concerning area in the recent times.

 

Current form of Netherlands: L L W W L 

The Netherlands were able to win against Namibia and UAE to secure their Super 12 berth. However, they lost to Bangladesh by nine runs. The Men in Orange were able to challenge the Tigers but they would be disappointed as could have also stunned them.

 

Head to Head: Matches: 2, Won by India: 2, Won by Netherlands: 0. 

India has won both of its matches against the Netherlands.
