In an extremely unnecessary series, England and Netherlands square off in a 3 match ODI series. The series holds less significance in a T20 year yet the defending champions will be keen to pick up 30 world super league points and affirm their position on the ICC ODI rankings table.
Match Preview
Ahead of the first ODI, England are spoilt for choice as they have a lot of opening options. Yet they will persist with Jason Roy and Jos Butler, with Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Dawid Malan and Liam Livingstone form an enviable middle order and the hosts would be shivering at the amount of runs they are about to concede.
The likes of Willey, Adil Rashid and Reece Topley are also a good trio and they would like to script a few records to their name as they look to run through the Netherlands batting line up.
Pieter Seelar and Tom Cooper return for the hosts as they are the only two players in the side that has practically no experience. This might be a blessing in disguise as they challenge the mighty English on their own turf.
Team Preview
The likes of Morgan, Moeen, Sam Curran and Jason Roy hold the key for England to score the big runs. The visitors are without Ben Stokes, Johnny Bairstow and Joe Root, yet are a tour de force to reckon with. The bowling too has Rashid, Willey and Topley and Netherlands would be vary of them.
The Netherlands have a relatively fresh squad and challenging England is a task. They did fight it out the last time around against the West Indies, but even they know that this is the much better side and they will need to play out of their skins to even make it a contest.
Key Players
Eoin Morgan – The English skipper would like to create another world record in terms of fastest hundreds scored as he would be licking his lips seeing a lackluster Netherlands bowling
Jos Butler – The orange cap winner of the recently concluded IPL will be keen to make a mark yet again with the bat as he would bat at the top of the order in the absence of Bairstow.
Sam Curran – The dynamic all rounder would like to be both in the runs as well as wickets column as he makes a comeback in national colors after a long time
