Preview :

In the 2nd match of the ICC ODI Cricket World Cup 2023, Pakistan will face the Netherlands on October 6, 2023, at 2:00 PM IST. The match will be held at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad.

This marks the second game of the major event hosted by India under the ICC's auspices. This year, all the teams are prepared, with many players expected to make their final appearance on the field.

Each country aims to dedicate this World Cup to their legendary cricketers. Pakistan's visit to India for such a significant event comes after seven years of geopolitical tensions between the two nations. It's a great opportunity to perform well in the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023.

On the other hand, the Netherlands, the second qualifier, will be challenging Pakistan. They are not an easy team to beat in longer-format games and provide strong competition for their opponents.

Tables have turned on Pakistan over the last month or so. They looked to be in the best shape before the Asia Cup but a heavy defeat at the hands of arch-rivals India messed things up for them completely. They lost a close game to Sri Lanka as well and couldn’t make it to the final of the tournament either.

To make things worse, they also lost both their warm-up matches with their bowlers conceding more than 340 runs in each outing. Nevertheless, their batters also amassed those many runs only to be on the losing side. Pakistan are the most unpredictable side and on their day, they can destroy any team.

Meanwhile, the Netherlands, led by young Scott Edwards, have literally nothing to lose and can express themselves to the fullest. They landed in India well before the tournament and also played a few practice One-Day matches against Karnataka. They fared well with the ball against Australia in the rain-hit warm-up while the rain gods washed out their final warm-up against India.
