World Cup 2023: New Zealand vs Netherlands, Game 6 – Match Prediction

New Zealand will take on the Netherlands at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad in their second match of the ongoing World Cup 2023 on Monday. The Kiwis had made a winning start to their campaign, beating the defending champions England convincingly by nine wickets and with 82 balls to spare in the tournament’s opener.

Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway had lit the World Cup on fire with their fine centuries. The two left-handers had played at the top of the game and added a gargantuan alliance of 273 runs.

Ravindra scored a magnificent knock of 123 whereas Conway played a blistering innings of 152 runs. Furthermore, Mitchell Santner and Matt Henry had scalped two and three wickets respectively as the Blackcaps ticked all the right boxes as a unit.

Meanwhile, there will be selection headaches for New Zealand as their full-time skipper Kane Williamson is expected to return to the final XI. Moreover, Lockie Ferguson should also be available for selection.

On the other hand, the Netherlands did a decent job with the ball against Pakistan in the opening game as they were able to skittle out the opposition for 286. However, the Dutch could not come up with a collective batting effort and it led to their downfall. Thus, the Men in Orange will aim to turn the tables with the bat against the Kiwis.

 

Match Prediction: There is no doubt that New Zealand will enter this contest as red-hot favorites against the Netherlands.

 

Netherlands squad: Scott Edwards (c), Max O’Dowd, Bas de Leede, Vikram Singh, Teja Nidamanuru, Paul van Meekeren, Colin Ackermann, Roelof van der Merwe, Logan van Beek, Aryan Dutt, Ryan Klein, Wesley Barresi, Saqib Zulfiqar, Shariz Ahmad, Sybrand Engelbrecht.

 

New Zealand squad: Kane Williamson (c), Trent Boult, Mark Chapman, Devon Conway, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Tom Latham, Daryl Mitchell, Jimmy Neesham, Glenn Phillips, Rachin Ravindra, Mitch Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Will Young.
