What Have The Two Teams Done So Far?
Bangladesh edged out Sri Lanka in their opener before nearly shocking South Africa in their second match. A win here will all but ensure their place in the Super Eight.
On the other hand, Netherlands were a winner over Nepal but fell to South Africa, again in a close match. If they can earn themselves a win here, we could have a situation whereby the net run-rate could play a part in deciding the second spot in the Super Eight from this group.
Quick BAN vs NED Preview
This is an interestingly poised group with both these teams, Netherlands and Bangladesh fighting for that second spot in the Super Eight stage following the near-exit of Sri Lanka.
The only way Sri Lanka can qualify for the next stage is if this game between Bangladesh and Netherlands gets rained off and they then go on to lose their respective final games while Sri Lanka win theirs.
Which brings us to the weather for this game and the bad news for Sri Lanka is that it’s all clear, sunny through the day with spots of cloud.
This also means that Netherlands have no option but to win this given that Bangladesh have to play Nepal next and the Dutch side will be up against Sri Lanka.
This isn’t to say that Netherlands cannot defeat Sri Lanka and Nepal cannot surmount Bangladesh but for both those results to happen looks like a challenge.
Given that Netherlands still have their chances in their own hands, it would be no surprise they will want to come out all guns blazing here against a side that hasn’t had the best results going their way in this format.
Bangladesh all-rounder and former skipper Shakib al Hasan has a point to prove after he was criticised by a few experts for his over-indulgent stroke-play and we can expect him to get going here.
