NED vs BAN ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Cricket World Cup 2023
Netherlands and Bangladesh, two of the bottom three sides in the 2023 Cricket World Cup, lock horns in Match 28 on Saturday at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. With only England in between the teams in the table, it has been a poor campaign for both teams who have picked up one victory in the tournament. The Netherlands beat South Africa in Match 15 but have since been beaten by Sri Lanka and Australia. Bangladesh have lost to England, New Zealand, India and South Africa after their opening game victory over Afghanistan. Read on as we preview this game. The match gets underway at 14:00 local time.
After beating South Africa earlier in the tournament, the Netherlands not only have a new group of fans following their every move but expectations have also raised in the Ireland camp. This will be a tough game but they certainly have enough match-winners to make the contest interesting.
Bangladesh have far more experience than the Netherlands players at the highest level and in ODI and T20I World Cups. Although both teams have won only one match so far, we are expecting the Tigers to have the upperhand and to record their second win.

NED vs BAN Match Toss Prediction
This is the first match played at this venue in the 2023 Cricket World Cup. Although the last ODI was won by India batting second, the previous five matches in this format were won by the team batting first so we predict that both captains will choose to bat first if they win the toss.
NED vs BAN Pitch Report
We can expect to see plenty of spin from this pitch at Eden Gardens. A par score will be around 320-330 with consistent bounce throughout the match.
The pitch is known for good chases and we can expect a good batting display under the lights if the chasing team plays responsibly.
Mumbai Weather Report
Hot and humid at the start of this game in Dharamsala with cloudy conditions dominating the rest of play but without any cause for concern of rain interruptions.

Netherlands Team News
After keeping faith with the same side for their last few matches, including the win over South Africa, we expect to see some changes ahead of this match with some tired and weary bodies in the bowling attack. We anticipate that van Meekeren will drop out with Ryan Klein coming back in.
Netherlands Team Key Players
- Scott Edwards - The keeper-batter and skipper has generally come to the crease at number seven but he has far more talent than most batting at that number so could move up in this game.
- Vikramjit Singh - The 20 year old left-hander found the accuracy of Australia’s bowlers hard to deal with but he still top scored with a run-a-ball 25.
- Colin Ackermann - Ackermann is currently the leading run scorer of the team with 137 runs in 5 matches so far. We are backing him to perform well on this batting track. Ackermann has scored sixteen 4s so far which is highest in the team.

- Logan van Beek - The New Zealand born pace bowler conceded 74 runs against Australia but dismissed both openers before taking the wickets of Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Starc later in the innings.
- Aryan Dutt - For the first time in the tournament we saw a batter dominate the tall off-spinner with David Warner attacking him through backward point. However, he still got the big wicket of Steve Smith.

Bangladesh Team News
There was one change for Bangladesh ahead of their clash with South Africa on Tuesday with their skipper Shakib Al Hasan coming back into the team having recovered from injury with Towhid Hridoy dropping out of the side. No changes are expected for this game.
Bangladesh Team Key Players
- Litton Das - The 29 year old right handed opener has been Bangladesh’s most consistent batter in the top order during the tournament. He has contributed two half-centuries with 76 against England and 66 versus India.
- Mahmudullah - The experienced middle order all-rounder has been in excellent form with the bat in the 2023 Cricket World Cup. He comes into this match with over 5200 ODI runs from 195 innings.
- Mushfiqur Rahim - Mushfiqur has scored 165 runs so far in 5 matches at a strike rate of 80.48. He scored half centuries against England and New Zealand but scored 8 in the last match. We are backing him to play another high-score innings against NED.

- Hasan Mahmud - Although he was expensive against South Africa, the fast medium bowler was still able to pick up the big wickets of Quinton de Kock and Heinrich Klaasen.
- Shakib Al Hasan - The captain showed no ill effects from his injury in the defeat in Match 23 as he dismissed Aiden Markram in the 31st over. He should be back to full fitness and be more dangerous in this game.

Who will win Netherlands vs Bangladesh ODI Match?
With a win each from their previous games, we are expecting a close game with neither having much to lose. Due to their greater experience, we have selected Bangladesh as the top team.
🏆 Netherlands vs Bangladesh Prediction
Although there is only a minimal chance of either team qualifying in the top four of the tournament now, we expect this game to be played with a high level of competitiveness, Neither of the sides wants to finish bottom of the table and this is a very winnable match for both. The Netherlands have not seen enough runs from their top order in the competition and that could be the problem again in this game. We think there is more depth across the batting and bowling departments for the Tigers and overall, we are backing Bangladesh to win.
