Netherlands and Nepal go head to head in match 7 of the T20 World Cup 2024 in Dallas on June 4, Tuesday. The match starts at 9 pm IST which is 10.30 am local time.

The two teams are part of Group D alongside Bangladesh, South Africa, and Sri Lanka. This is also being called the "Group Of Death" in this World Cup.

The Dutch nature of winning against big teams in tournaments and the mercurial nature of teams like Bangladesh, South Africa, and Sri Lanka opens up the group, and any of the teams can finish in the top two and make it to the next round.

Scott Edwards will lead the Netherlands. The squad almost resembles the same side that played last year's ODI World Cup. Nepal played in the T20 World Cup qualifiers and the Asia Cup 2023 last year, a major tournament they played in. Both teams are still rising the charts in international cricket.

However, the Dutch have a big chance of making it to the next round if they beat teams like South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. The Netherlands did defeat Bangladesh and South Africa in the ODI World Cup last year.

Nepal lost to Oman in the T20 World Cup qualifier final in November 2023. Then they played one-off games against the Netherlands, Namibia, Canada, and Malaysia.

Heading into their first game, they lost to Canada in the warm-up match and their second match against the USA was washed out. Given the group that they are in with the teams, qualifying for them in the next round will be a hard task.
