Team Previews
Netherlands Preview
So far so good for Netherlands in this tournament. In Nepal they found it hard with bat particularly when playing against Namibia and Nepal. However as they return at home base they expect better performances from their players. The middle order remains the backbone of their batting lineup i.e Bas de Leede and skipper Scott Edwards should settle down for long stays during innings.
Max O’Dowd and Michael Levitt will be crucial at the top, providing a solid start to the innings while for Teja Nidamanuru who has been recently out of form might just do enough damage in the lower middle order.
The Dutch bowling attack features highly rated Aryan Dutt, Vivian Kingma and Bas de Leede who have all been very consistent over the last few years. Their ability to take wickets at critical times in matches will be crucial in stifling Canada’s batting line up..
Netherlands Predicted Playing XI:
Michael Levitt, Max O’Dowd, Sybrand Engelbrecht, Bas de Leede, Scott Edwards (c & wk), Teja Nidamanuru, Vikramjit Singh, Noah Croes, Roelof van der Merwe, Aryan Dutt, Vivian Kingma
Canada Preview
Leading from the front was their captain Saad Bin Zafar whose performance during this tournament was awe-inspiring together with Kaleem Sana and Dillon Heyliger being his main partners. As seen in GT 20 Canada where their bowlers are on song, they seem unstoppable right now.
However that is little comfort because of recent series against Nepal under similar conditions where they struggled. To win against Netherlands they must have some early runs coming from batsmen like Aaron Johnson and Srimantha Wijeyeratne among others. The Canadian middle order consisting Pargat Singh Navneet Dhaliwal and Harsh Thaker must build strong partnerships so as to maintain pressure on The Dutch bowling team.
In the lower order, Nicholas Kirton and Shreyas Movva can play quick runs in the end overs which are very important in tight matches. The consistency of Canada would be a challenge against a Dutch side that has depth in both batting and bowling.
Canada Predicted Playing XI:
Aaron Johnson, Srimantha Wijeyeratne (wk), Pargat Singh, Navneet Dhaliwal, Harsh Thaker, Nicholas Kirton, Shreyas Movva, Saad Bin Zafar (c), Dillon Heyliger, Ammar Khalid, Kaleem Sana
Key Player : Scott Edwards with his experience and consistency is a strong contender for the wicketkeeper spot.
Winning Strategy : Pick top-order batsmen from either side who should go on to play cautiously and build their innings. Spinners from either side will be key players to consider.
