India v Netherlands T20 World Cup Tips

Tip Summary

• India defeated Pakistan in their first T20 World Cup 2022 match in a nail-biting thriller by four wickets.
• The Netherlands ended up losing their first Super 12 match against Bangladesh by nine runs.
• India are the favorites to record their second consecutive win in the tournament by defeating the Netherlands on Thursday. 

India will be aiming for the top spot in the Group 2 points table when they will take on the Netherlands in their second ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 match. The team is currently second in the standings as they scored a four-wicket win over Pakistan in their first game. It was an absolutely delightful performance by Team India. 

Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya ensured a good run for the Men in Blue in the first innings, as they restricted Pakistan to a score of 159 runs. However, batting in the second innings, India also succumbed to a poor start. They lost their four wickets within seven overs. The team had nothing to worry about as Virat Kohli played the finest knock of his T20I career to take India home on the very last ball of the match. 

Meanwhile, the Netherlands failed to deliver an impactful performance as they lost to Bangladesh by nine runs. The team gave a tough fight to the Bangladesh batters by stopping them at 144 runs. Bas de Leede and Paul van Meekeren were the star bowlers for the side with two wickets each. However, the batters could not continue the momentum as they ended up scoring only 135 runs. 

Considering the squad and experience of both India and the Netherlands, a one-sided affair is expected on Thursday.
