Because premier players are currently competing in the English County Championship and the Royal London One-Day Cup, the home side has chosen a new-look squad. Skipper Scott Edwards will be hoping for a disciplined performance from his team in their first match on Tuesday. Pakistan, on the other hand, has named a full-strength squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against The Netherlands.
Match Preview
Short sunny periods with cloud cover for the majority of the day. In this format, both teams prefer to bat first and put pressure on the opposing team by posting a high total. Although this pitch will turn, seam and swing bowlers will benefit the most from it. We anticipate a par score of 290-310. If either captain wins the toss, we expect them to bat first.
Team Preview
The Men in Orange will try to put together the best possible lineup for this first match. The onus will be on batsmen like Max O’Dowd, Scott Edwards, and Bas De Leede to deliver the bulk of the runs and help Netherlands post a respectable total in their allotted 50 overs. The management of the team will be hoping that Edwards can perform well in this ODI series. Logan van Beek, Vivian Kingma, Aryan Dutt, Shariz Ahmad, and Ryan Klein will be expected to achieve crucial breakthroughs in the bowling department.
The guests will try to adapt to the situation and play well against the Netherlands with both bat and ball. The top-order trio of Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, and Imam-Ul-Haq will be expected to score the majority of runs in this inaugural game in terms of batting. The team will depend on bowlers Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, and Shahnawaz Dahani to make significant bowling strikes.
