Nepal will take on Netherlands in the 2nd match of the T20I series. The match will be played at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground and will start at 11:15 AM IST on February 278
The pitch is flat and there is no help on offer for the pacers. However, there is some turn for the spinners but the small boundaries work in batters’ advantage.
Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Nepal vs Netherlands, Nepal T20I Tri-Series
Nepal once again failed to beat Namibia and lost the first T20I by 20 runs. Loftie Eaton smashed the fastest 100 in T20I cricket in 33 balls as Namibia posted 206-4. A couple of Nepal batters looked threatening but none played a big innings as Nepal could only score 186.
Kushal Bhurtel, Aasif Sheikh and Rohit Paudel will be the main batters. Aasif failed in the first T20I but he has some form behind him and scored a couple of fifties in the preceding ODI series. Captain Paudel looked good and scored 48 in 24 balls. Bhurtel was out for a golden duck but he is a good player and will be eyeing a strong return.
Karan KC, Sompal Kami and Rohit Paudel will be the key bowlers for Nepal. Paudel also bagged a couple of wickets for 30 runs and was Nepal’s best bowler. Karan KC and Sompal Kami are the lead pacers and most of Nepal’s hopes will rest on them.
Nepal have ran out of form in last few matches. They could only win one match in ODI tri-series and now also lost the first T20I to Namibia.

Netherlands were ordinary in the ODI tri-series and will now look for an improved show in the T20I series. Netherlands are far more accomplished in this format of the game and are expected to give a tough fight to Nepal.
Scott Edwards, Max O Dowd and Vikramjit Singh can be backed to do well. Edwards is the most consistent batter for Netherlands and can play the anchor role. O'Dowd and Vikramjit are proper T20 players and can decimate a team on their day.
The bowling will rest on Fred Klaassen, Roelof van der Merwe and Aryan Dutt. Klaassen and Van der Merwe are two of the most experienced bowlers for the Netherlands, taking 40 and 42 wickets respectively. Dutt, on the other hand, has great form behind him and had a great T20I series.
Netherlands last played T20I cricket in T20 World Cup 2022 where they won two games and lost three matches.
Michael Levitt, Max ODowd, Sybrand Engelbrecht, Scott Edwards (c & wk), Teja Nidamanuru, Vikramjit Singh, Noah Croes, Roelof van der Merwe, Aryan Dutt, Vivian Kingma, Fred Klaassen
Netherlands will start the match as favourites. Netherlands are lot more experienced in this format of the game and have players who are T20 specialists. A lot of players have played in several T20 franchise leagues thus it won’t be easy for Nepal. For us, Netherlands are favourites.
