Netherlands vs West Indies, NL vs WI, Today Match Prediction 02 June 2022

ned vs win Match Prediction & Analysis

West Indies have started the 3-match series on a positive note winning the first game by 7 wickets under the DLS method. Though the visitors faced stiffer opposition than what they would be expected it was a comfortable victory for them. The Netherlands would be aware that they need to come up with a better performance in this game to level the series in this game  

The Netherlands would be under pressure as they have never defeated West Indies in this format of the game. The side has won just two games in this format out of the last ten played and they have had their trouble with the bat and the ball. It would be interesting to see if the side can live up to the challenge and level the series.  

TEAMS PREVIEW

Netherlands Preview

Pieter Seelaar would be upset with the form of his bowlers. Under good bowling conditions, the side failed to apply pressure on West Indies batsmen and allowed them to run away with the game. They will need to fight it out hard and the skipper would want his side to show their character in this game and level the series.

Vikramajit Singh and Max O’Dowd gave a good start to the side in the last game and a similar show would be expected from them here. The side would need its middle order to convert starts as Musa Ahmed, Bas de Leede and Scott Edwards failed to build partnerships. Teja Nidamanuru played an important role in the lower middle order and the side would look for big hits from him and Seelaar.  

Logan van Beek and Vivian Kingma failed to get early wickets for the side in the last game and they will need to do it this time as West Indies have good hitters of the ball in the side. Seelaar is an experienced bowler, and the side would like him to lead from the front. Aryan Dutt, Riyan Klein, and de Leede need to strike form in this game for the side to win.  

 

Netherlands Predicted Playing XI:

Pieter Seelaar (c), Max O’Dowd, Vikramjit Singh, Musa Ahmed, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Scott Edwards (wk), Logan van Beek, Aryan Dutt, Ryan Klein, Vivian Kingma

West Indies Preview

Nicholas Pooran would be happy with the performance of his side in the last game. Though they were under pressure at one stage with a few wickets the side chased down the decent total comfortably in the end. Pooran would be aiming to finish things off in style and take the series 2-0.  

Shai Hope hit a good hundred in the last game and the side would like to see him offer a good start with Shamarh Brooks. Pooran and Nkrumah Bonner missed out in the last game and the side would like to see them do well. Brandon King played a great knock, and he will need to score runs down the order with Keacy Carty and Kyle Mayers 

Alzarri Joseph bowled well in the last game, but the West Indies would look for better lines from youngster Anderson Phillip who was slightly wayward. Akeal Hosein and Kyle Mayers troubled the Netherlands batsmen, and they would look to carry on with the same form. In Hayden Walsh they have a smart bowler completing a good bowling line-up for the team.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

The skies over Amstelveen would have a bit of cloud cover on June 02. The wicket would be lively as there is a lot of moisture on this track.  Batsmen will need to approach the game with caution as bowlers would get a bargain from the track.  A score in the range of 270 runs should be a good total in these conditions.  

Venue Details

VRA Cricket Ground, Amstelveen has had a good batting surface where the ball hits the bat hard and allows batsmen to play their strokes easily. Fast bowlers have done well at his venue in the past with the track offering them good assistance. There isn’t much on this track for the spinners who usually struggle here.  

Toss: To Bowl

We had seen assistance for the fast bowlers early in the last game. The wicket has a lot of moisture underneath, and the ball is expected to move early in the morning. It will be easier to chase scores on this surface when batting conditions improve gradually. The side winning the toss is likely to opt for bowling first here.
