ICC World Cup 2023, New Zealand vs Netherlands

Table of Contents

New Zealand vs Netherlands will be the second phase of the ICC World Cup as both teams already played one match each, and now they will play the 2nd match of the World Cup 2023.

New Zealand had an amazing start to the ICC World Cup against the defending champions England by defeating them quite easily by nine wickets as Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra’s outstanding debut World Cup match centuries thrashed England. However, the amazing thing is that New Zealand was not even playing with a full squad, as Kane Williamson, Tim Southee, and Ferguson were not in the team.

It was one of the best innings by Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra, as both batters never looked in trouble playing against the England bowling unit. They literally thrashed the England side by chasing down a decent total of 283 runs in just 36.2 overs. Rachin Ravindra was given the Player of the Match Award

The Netherlands played quite well against Pakistan even though they lost the match, but they fought well against the top side like Pakistan, who once got in big trouble when the Netherlands picked up three wickets under 40 runs but was not able to keep pressure and then Pakistan made 286 runs which were quite out of hand to be chased for the dutch side.

Bas de Leede really gave an incredible performance, and if two more players had given him support Netherlands would have won it against Pakistan. However Netherlands side got all out on just 205 runs, but they are capable of turning things around, and it was a positive performance for them.
