Netherlands vs New Zealand match preview
Netherlands put up a solid fight against Pakistan, threatening to take the game away from them at various points. However, in the end, they were beaten comprehensively by 81 runs. Bas de Leede was the star with both bat and ball, picking four wickets and scoring 67 runs. Vikramjit Singh scored an impressive half-century as well, opening the innings.
New Zealand thumped England in the World Cup opener. After restricting them to 282 in the first innings, the left-handed duo of Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra compiled flawless centuries to take New Zealand to a nine-wicket victory. They start as heavy favourites against Netherlands.
NED vs NZ: Fantasy tips and tricks
# Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra are in scintillating form. It’s worth picking them both and making either of them captain.
# However, Netherlands might start the bowling with off-spinner Aryan Dutt, who can pose a threat to the two New Zealand left-handers at the top. Picking Dutt and dropping Conway and Ravindra can be a risky option that can be taken.
# Bas de Leede was Netherlands’ top-scorer as well as top-wicket-taker in the previous game. Expect him to continue more of his good work with both and ball and give ample points.
# Trent Boult and Matt Henry will both fancy their chances of picking early wickets with the new ball against the Dutch top order.
