Australia will square off against the Netherlands in Match 24 of the ICC Cricket World Cup, 2023 on October 25 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, India. The match will start at 02:00 PM IST. Australia will head into the match on the back of their 62-run win over Pakistan. The win over Babar Azam's side was Australia's second in four matches. Previously, the Pat Cummins-led team beat Sri Lanka after losing their first two matches to India and South Africa.
Sadeera Samarawickrama hit an undefeated 91 as Sri Lanka brought the Netherlands crashing back down to World Cup reality on Saturday with a five-wicket victory which gave the 1996 champions their first win of the tournament.
Sadeera Samarawickrama displayed unwavering composure in his unbeaten half-century as he guided Sri Lanka to a clinical five-wicket win over the Netherlands and secure their first victory in this World Cup in Lucknow on Saturday. South African-born Sybrand Engelbrecht (70) and Logan van Beek (59) led a remarkable recovery with maiden half-centuries to help the Netherlands post a fighting 262 after they opted to bat. In reply, Dutch off-spinner Aryan Dutt (3/44) snared Kusal Perera (5) and skipper Kusal Mendis (8) inside the powerplay, but Sri Lanka never lost sight of the target on a dry and spinning Ekana pitch with Samarawickrama anchoring their chase without taking any risks.
LUCKNOW : Sri Lanka beat the Netherlands by five wickets with 10 balls to spare on Saturday to become the final team to claim a hard-fought victory at the World Cup after Sadeera Samarawickrama anchored the chase.
The Netherlands and Sri Lanka face off against each other in match No. 19 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 on Saturday, October 21 at the Ekana Stadium, Lucknow. While the two teams take each other on the playing field, the fantasy cricket managers have a chance to pick their favourite players and form their teams. The performance of the players on the field will translate to points for each fantasy team picked, and the manager with the team with the most points stands a chance to win attractive prizes.
The Netherlands arguably produced the biggest upset of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, defeating the unbeaten South Africans to register their first win of the campaign. Defending a total of 245 runs, in a 43-over-per-side contest, the Dutch bowled out the Proteas for just 207 runs. From skipper Scott Edwards to pacer Logan van Beek and spinner Roelof van der Merwe, there were many match-winners for the Netherlands in the contest. One of them was seamer Paul van Meekeren, a guy who delivered food through Uber Eats in 2020 to make ends meet.
Following his side's 38-run win over South Africa in their ICC Cricket World Cup match, Netherlands captain Scott Edwards said that he is proud of the team for their victory and came into the tournament aiming for a shot at the semifinals. A three-wicket haul by Logan van Beek, a half-century by skipper Scott Edwards and an all-round show by Roelof van der Merwe helped the Netherlands beat South Africa at Dharamshala, two days after Afghanistan caused an upset by defeating England.
