The last time the Netherlands faced Bangladesh in ODI format was in the ICC World Cup 2011. Neither team has played a single ODI match against each other since 2011.
The most-eyed player from today's match will be Litton Das. He has been consistently performing for Bangladesh in most of the matches. In Bangladesh's last clash against South Africa, Mahmudullah played an inning of 111 runs in 111 balls including 11 fours and 4 sixes. However, the Bengal Tigers will heavily rely on their skipper Shakib Al Hasan to deliver an all round performance in today's match.
The Netherlands did not have a very well ICC World Cup 2023 campaign, but will definitely try to compete with the cricketing giants which will keep boosting the confidence of their team in the tournament.
Squads:
Bangladesh: Shakib Al Hasan (c), Litton Kumer Das, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Najmul Hossain Shanto (vc), Tawhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah Riyad, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Nasum Ahmed, Shak Mahedi Hasan, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Hasan Mahmud, Shoriful Islam, Tanzim Hasan Sakib.
