Netherlands and Nepal will go face to face against each other in the 14th match of the ICC World Cup Qualifiers 2023. This Group A game will be played at the Takashinga Sports Club in Harare on Saturday, June 24.

After losing their first game, the Netherlands made a strong comeback into the tournament as they registered a five-wicket victory over the United States in a one-sided game. They are currently placed third in the Group A points table with two points and a net run rate of -0.167.

Bowling first, Ryan Klein and Bas de Leede picked up two wickets apiece as the Netherlands restricted the United States to a below-par total of 211/8 in 50 overs. Chasing a modest total, Teja Nidamanaru (58) and Scott Edwards (67*) scored useful fifties and helped the team get over the line with nearly six overs to spare.

Bowling first, the bowlers failed to keep a check on the scoring rate as Nepal conceded a massive total of 339/7 in 50 overs. In reply, Aarif Sheikh played a well-composed knock of 63 runs off 93 balls but he failed to receive any support from the other end as the team got all out for just 238 runs and lost the game by 101 runs.
