IND vs NED Probable Top Performers

Probable Best Batter

VIRAT KOHLI

If he can dispatch Haris Rauf bowling at 150kph to the stand of the MCG, just imagine the amount of damage he can inflict upon the inexperienced Dutch bowlers. As demonstrated a few days against Pakistan, King is well and truly back and, he is the Indian batter to put your money on for this T20 World Cup. He loves batting in Australia and would feast on these batting-friendly tracks in SCG.

Probable Best Bowler

ARSHDEEP SINGH

In the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, the young Arshdeep Singh is India’s go-to bowler in powerplay and death overs. Ever since making his debut, he has been taking wickets for fun and is very effective in controlling the run-flow as well.

IND vs NED Prediction- Who Will Win Today’s Match Between INDIA and NETHERLANDS

This is a no-brainer. Unless there is some miraculous performance from any of the Dutch players, they do not stand a chance against this Indian side.
The injury of van de Merwe will dent Netherlands’ chances even more. He is the only player among them who has some match experience to counter this Indian side.
On the batting front, India has an experienced and well-settled batting order.
Tim Pringle could be one man who, the Netherlands could use effectively to counter Indian batters. Indian top order has struggled against left-arm spin and considering the form of Pringle, he could well be a game-changer for them.
This is the first time, both these sides are facing each other in a T20I match.
