On June 8, 2024, the Netherlands will face South Africa in the 16th match of Group D at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. The game is scheduled for 8 PM IST, 7:30 PM PST, 2:30 PM GMT, and 10:30 AM local time.

Netherlands vs South Africa Match Preview

Historically a challenging opponent, the Netherlands have defeated South Africa in their last two World Cup meetings.

The Dutch team, strengthened by players from cricketing nations like Australia and New Zealand, recently triumphed over Nepal in their T20 World Cup opener, with Max O’Dowd’s unbeaten 54 leading the way. Despite fewer T20 matches in 2023 due to ODI commitments, they have secured significant victories in past World Cups and recent tri-series.

South Africa, aiming to avenge their previous World Cup loss to the Netherlands, began their 2024 campaign with a commanding win over Sri Lanka, highlighted by Anrich Nortje’s career-best 4/7. However, the top order’s performance remains a concern, mitigated by the reliable Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller. Klaasen’s exceptional form, showcased in the IPL, underscores the Proteas’ potential, but they are acutely aware of the need to approach the Dutch challenge with utmost seriousness.
