Netherlands may have lost their first game by an 81-run margin, but they gave Pakistan a scare and threatened a comeback at several stages during the match. The Scott Edwards-led team has already displayed signs of having the potential to be a giant-killing force on their day in just their first international match in four months.
Against one of the top teams in the world, they put up a fantastic all-around effort. While their bowling was strong, albeit inconsistent, their batting has been faltering lately despite being their strength. They’d seek an immediate solution to their problem.
In the tournament’s opening match, New Zealand easily defeated England regardless of missing the services of Kane Williamson, Tim Southee, and even Lockie Ferguson. It wasn’t just a one-time display of power. Only a week prior, they defeated Pakistan in Hyderabad’s first warm-up game, cruising through the 346-run chase.
They have achieved better success on flat surfaces with their low-risk strategy—one that comes naturally to their blueprint—than even teams like Pakistan and England did with a marginally more risky one. If the success keeps up, it could encourage other teams to adopt similar strategies sooner rather than later.
