The ODI World Cup 2023 team for the Netherlands cricket team has been revealed.
Roelof van der Merwe and Colin Ackermann, a seasoned combo, have been called up and included in the Netherlands’ 15-player roster for the ICC ODI Men’s Cricket World Cup. They weren’t both a part of the team that finished second in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier earlier this year, earning them a spot in the 2023 World Cup. however, they were included to the roster of 15 competitors who would compete during a six-week period in India in October and November.
Both of them will add a wealth of experience to a Netherlands team that Scott Edwards will lead once more. Scott Edwards was a standout at the 2017 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Australia.
Ackermann was the Netherlands’ second-leading run scorer at the competition, and van der Merwe had some useful cameos with the bat, the ball and the pitch. While star all-rounder Bas de Leede is anticipated to play a significant role with both the bat and the ball, the Netherlands will be hoping that opening hitter Max O’Dowd can contribute a lot of runs throughout the tournament.
The opener match of team Netherlands at the World Cup 2023 will be played against Pakistan in Hyderabad on October 6.
Squad: Scott Edwards (c), Max O’Dowd, Bas de Leede, Vikram Singh, Teja Nidamanuru, Paul van Meekeren, Colin Ackermann, Roelof van der Merwe, Logan van Beek, Aryan Dutt, Ryan Klein, Wesley Barresi, Saqib Zulfiqar, Shariz Ahmad, and Sybrand Engelbrecht.
