Netherlands International Matches 2025
3rd T20I: Bangladesh v Netherlands - no result.
Sylhet, 3 September.
Bangladesh 164-4 (18.2 overs; L Das 73, N Hasan 22*, J Ali 20*, S Hossain 21; K Klein 3-53)
Netherlands
Kyle Klein lights up Saif Hassan's stumps (T-Sports)
Just the one wicket for the Netherlands before two interruptions, first for floodlight failure and then less than an over later for rain. Time enough though for Shariz Ahmad to spill two catches out at deep square. A Kyle Klein double strike in his third over snares both set batters but only temporarily puts the brakes on the hosts charge as Nurul Hasan and Jaker Ali take 22 from his final over before the covers come back on, never to be removed! A 2-0 series win for the hosts.
2nd T20I: Bangladesh beat Netherlands by 9 wickets.
Sylhet, 1 September.
Netherlands 103 (17.3 overs; A Dutt 30, V Singh 24; Nasum Ahmed 3-21, Mustafizur Rahman 2-18, Taskin Ahmed 2-22)
Bangladesh 104-1 (13.1 overs; Tanzid Hasan 54*, Parvez Hossain 23)
Women's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Germany by 65 runs.
Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, 27 August.
Netherlands 175-4 (20 overs; P Molkenboer 91*, F Overdijk 36; R Shahid 2-27)
Germany 110-1 (20 overs; W Garcia 51*, R Shahid 33)
Phebe Molkenboer carried her bat for 91* in the Dutch innings (ICC)
Phebe Molkenboer's unbeaten knock the highlight of the Netherlands innings as she combined first with Robine Rijke and then Frederique Overdijk in half-century partnerships. Decent batting by Germany in their reply without ever threatening a win, with Hannah Landheer the only wicket taker.
Women's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands lost to Ireland by 7 wickets.
Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, 26 August.
Netherlands 110 (18.5 overs; R Rijke 25, B De Leede 23; A Kelly 5-14, L Paul 2-11)
Ireland 111-3 (19.1 overs; G Lewis 56, O Prendergast 49; H Landheer 2-17)
A five wicket haul for Arlene Kelly today. (ICC.tv)
Ireland stay unbeaten with what on the face of it was a comfortable 7 wicket win. However the game went into the final over as they chased down the modest target set by the hosts. An Arlene Kelly ‘five-for’ the highlight of Ireland’s performance in the field as the final eight wickets fell for only 39 runs. Christina Coulter Reilly again took over Amy Hunter’s duties both with the gloves and as Lewis’ opening partner. She was bowled playing across the line for just two but Orla Prendergast and Gaby Lewis added 89 and the second wicket fell with just 10 required when Prendergast edged behind just missing out on a deserved half-century. The scores were tied when Lewis tried to pierce the ring of fielders driving a catch to extra cover. Unlikely as it had looked we are going into the last over! Amy Hunter hits to extra and takes off for the riskiest of singles - the throw that would have seen her run out by yards misses and Ireland win with just five balls to spare.
Women's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Italy by 7 wickets.
Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, 24 August.
Italy 86-9 (20 overs: E Bartram 29*; I Zwilling 3-14, S Siegers 2-8, C de Lange 2-11)
Netherlands 90-3 (15.1 overs; R Rijke 35*, B de Leede 24)
Handskakes as Robine Rijke claims the win for Netherlands (ICC)
Oxfordshire's Emelia Bartram played a lone hand as the Azzurre were held below 100. A sedate approach to the chase from the Dutch, Robine Rijke seeing them home with almost five overs to spare.
Women's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Germany by 202 runs.
Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, 23 August.
Netherlands 255-3 (20 overs; H Siegers 106*, P Molkenboer 73)
Germany 53 (17.2 overs; I Zwilling 3-6, C de Lange 2-4, H Landheer 2-5, S Siegers 2-16)
Netherlands demolished Germany for a 202 run victory (KNCB)
Toss: Germany who elected to field. Could be a long session this with plenty of Wides and No-balls even at this stage. Two 'beamers' in a Kohli over but no warning from the umpires? In her next a double bouncer 5 yards wide of the pitch is followed by another high full toss - 2 overs for 47 runs, carnage!! Will she get a third over - every chance as she's the captain! So a 52 ball century for Heather Siegers and a huge total for the Dutch - hardly what Germany had in mind when they won the Toss. Iris Zwilling claims two in her second over and Hannh Landheer two in her first. Twos also for Caroline de Lange and Silver Siegers. Extras comfortably the top score with 20.
Women's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands lost to Ireland by 8 wickets.
Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, 21 August.
Netherlands 137-6 (20 overs; P Molkenboer 27, H Siegers 27, F Overdijk 25; L Delany 2-19)
Ireland 141-2 (19.2 overs; G Lewis 66*, O Prendergast 28, A Hunter 21)
Gaby Lewis led Ireland to a last-over win against The Netherlands (ICC)
Hosts Netherlands set Ireland a testing total after opting to bat first with the Girls in Green needing the big guns to fire in the chase and they made an explosive start with long-hops and half-volleys dispatched to all parts. The opening partnership of 65 off 46 broken when Amy Hunter dragged a bottom edge onto her stumps. Lewis powered on to a half century off 36 with Orla Prendergast up and running at better than a run-a-ball. Prendergast edged behind with just 24 needed and Leah Paul joined Lewis. Down to 13 required off 2 overs when a run out was missed and it cost an overthrow into the bargain - Luck of the Irish? A misfield costs the hosts another chance of a run out before a Lewis boundary eases the pressure. Ireland looked a bit frantic there for an over or so but a win's a win in a game that was closer that the final margin suggests.
Women's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Italy by 43 runs.
Hazelaarweg, Rotterdam, 20 August.
Netherlands 157-7 (20 overs; B de Leede 52, R Rijke 29, I Zwilling 25; M van den Raad 20; E Moore 2-33)
Italy 114-8 (20 overs; A Wikman 37, C Piparo 22; I van der Woning 2-19, I Zwilling 2-23)
1st T20I: Bangladesh beat Netherlands by 8 wickets.
Sylhet, 30 August.
Netherlands 136-8 (20 overs; T Nidamanuru 26, M O'Dowd 23; T Ahmed 4-28, S Hassan 2-18)
Bangladesh 138-2 (13.3 overs; L Das 54*, S Hassan 36*,T Hasan 29)
Max O’Dowd got the Netherlands off to a flyer but after he departed, the first of Taskin Ahmed’s four wickets, it was all a bit of a struggle. Wickets fell at the first sign of aggression, the batters struggling to find any timing against the hosts changes of pace. An equally explosive start from the hosts, with Parvez Emon taking the first three deliveries from Ayran Dutt for 4,4,6. No let up then from Litton Das and Tanzid Hasan who added another 66 in quick time. Just three balls of the fourteenth over from Vikram Singh are enough for Saif Hassan to get the 13 required - 2,6,6. Hassan 36 off 19 (1x4, 3x6), and Das 54 off 29 (6x4, 2x6) in a real spanking for the Oranje tonight.
Under 19 World Cup European Qualifier: Scotland beat Netherlands by 20 runs.
Forthill, Dundee, 6 August.
Scotland 237-8 (50 overs; O Pillinger 52, E Ramsay 46, M Chaplin 42, R Grant 39; C de Lange 4-29, A Jain 2-46)
Netherlands 217 (47.1 overs; T De Leede 67, T Kloppenburg 38, A Jain 28*, V Wiesmeier 25, S Groteman 21; F Jones 4-41, M Saraswat 3-36, O Jones 2-43)
Scotland celebrate the win (Cricket Scotland)
Scotland put in to bat in the 'Big Yin' - a place in the U19 World Cup Finals going to the winners. The Scots will be disappointed with their final total as they lost their way mid innings after a solid opening platform had been established. Cedric de Lange claiming four wickets with his innocuous looking off spin. The chase ebbed and flowed throughout with a fourth wicket stand of 73 between Tom De Leede (67) and Teun Kloppenburg (38) getting the Dutch back into it after they fell to 35 for 3 with early wickets for Finlay Jones. Manu Saraswat looked to have won it with vital wickets but Aadit Jain (28*) gave his side late hope. In the end, Jones took his fourth wicket to clinch a 20-run win amidst great scenes. It's Scotland who claim the golden ticket of a World Cup berth and the Dutch 25-year drought continues.
Under 19 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Sweden by 204 runs
Lochside Park, Forfar, 5 August.
Netherlands 263-8 (50 overs; T de Leede 74, M Wolfe 60, A Jain 42; S Gedara 5-60)
Sweden 59 (29.5 overs: T McArthur 3-10, A Nota 3-14, S van Giezen 2-12)
Under 19 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Jersey by 7 wickets.
Arbroath, 3 August.
Jersey 141 (46.2 overs; A Webster 50; A Jain 3-20, C de Lange 3-23)
Netherlands 142-3 (24.2 overs; C de Lange 68, T Kloppenburg 55*)
>Under 19 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Denmark by 9 wickets.
Lochside Park, Forfar, 1 August.
Denmark 78 (35.3 overs; M Aslam 28; A Nota 5-17, A Jain 3-15)
Netherlands 80-1 (18.4 overs; C de Lange 38*, S Banerjee 34*)
A second win for the Netherlands and a second defeat for Denmark. Five wickets for Alejo Nota and three for Aaditt Jain as Denmark were asked to bat first and were hustled out for just 78. After Victor Wiesmeier went without scoring Cedric de Lange and Shirsak Banerjee knocked off the runs required finishing unbeaten, as indeed they did in yesterday's game.
>Under 19 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Guernsey by 9 wickets (DLS)
Forthill, Dundee, 31 July.
Guernsey 103 (44.3 overs: H Johnson 25, C Forshaw 20; A Jain 4-14, S Grooteman 3-12)
Netherlands 72-1 (12.2 overs: C de Lange 43*) (Rain interrupted - reduced to 46 overs and further to 26. Netherlands target 72 in 26 overs)
A stop-start affair as rain caused multiple stoppages with Guernsey unable to make much headway against the Dutch bowlers. Aaditt Jain with four wickets and Steele Grooteman three as the Channel Islanders struggled to post 103. No problems for the Dutch who chased the modest target down in just over twelve overs. Cedric de Lange (43*) and Shirsak Banerjee (15*) with the runs while Harry Johnson was the sole wicket taker for Guernsey.
Men's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Italy by 9 wickets.
Voorburg, 11 July.
Italy 134-7 (20 overs; B Manenti 30, G Stewart 25, H Manenti 23, J Burns 22; R van der Merwe 3-15; K Klein 2-27)
Netherlands 135-1 (16.2 overs; M O'Dowd 47*, S Edwards 37*, M Levitt 34)
Roelof Van Der Merwe celebrates his dismissal of Harry Manenti (ICC Europe)
This may not have been a great wicket for batting at Voorburg but it has produced some compelling cricket. If the Netherlands reached their target then Italy and Jersey would have qualified for the World T20; if the Dutch had got there in less than 14 overs then Jersey qualified, otherwise it was the Italians who would go to India and Sri Lanka. Unfortunately for Jersey the Dutch, after a flying start to their innings, took their foot off the accelerator and decided to cruise to victory. At the end of the 14th over the Netherlands were still 18 short of victory and Jersey's hopes were extinguished.
Men's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Guernsey by 73 runs.
Voorburg, 9 July.
Netherlands 172-1 (20 overs; M O'Dowd 92*, S Edwards 48*, M Levitt 25)
Guernsey 99-9 (20 overs; M Bradley 26; M Levitt 3-11, S Zulfiqar 2-16)
Men's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands lost to Scotland by 6 runs.
Voorburg, 8 July.
Scotland 148-9 (20 overs; O Hairs 52, C Tear 32, R Berrington 28; B de Leede 3-17, R van der Merwe 2-25, K Klein 2-27)
Netherlands 142-7 (20 overs; N Croes 50*, M Levitt 22, R van der Merwe 20, S Edwards 20; C Greaves 3-26, B McMullen 2-33)
Batting first after winning the toss, Scotland lost George Munsey early on in their innings, though fellow opener Ollie Hairs was able to score 52 from 35 balls. Contributions also came from Riche Berington (28 from 23) and Charlie Tear (32 from 24) as they scored 148-9 from their 20 overs. Bas de Leede was the pick of the Dutch bowlers with 3-17. A 35 ball knock of 52 by Noah Croes was the top score in the Dutch reply, but the next highest score was Michael Levitt's 22 and they fell just short of their target, being restricted to 142-7 and losing by six runs. Chris Greaves was the pick of the bowlers with 3-26.
Men's T20 World Cup European Qualifier: Netherlands beat Jersey by 7 wickets.
Voorburg, 5 July.
Jersey 160-7 (20 overs; Z Tribe 39, C Brennan 32*, J Jenner 27; K Klein 3-42, B de Leede 2-23)
Netherlands 161-3 (19.3 overs; M O'Dowd 62, Z Lion-Cachet 50, S Edwards 41*)
Max O'Dowd hits out against Jersey (KNCB)
The hosts were in action first up against Jersey with the visitors put into bat by Dutch captain Scott Edwards. Zak Tribe top scored for Jersey with 39, with Charlie Brennan's unbeaten 32 towards the end of their innings helping them post 160-7 from their 20 overs. The Netherlands took almost their full quota of overs to chase down their target but that probably flattered Jersey a little. After Michael Levitt was bowled by Harrison Carlyon in the first over, Max O'Dowd and Zach Lion-Cachet added 101 for the second wicket before the latter was out for 50.
T20I Tri-series: Nepal beat Netherlands by 6 wickets.
Titwood, Glasgow, 19 June.
Netherlands 174-7 (20 overs; M Levitt 86, R van der Merwe 36*; Karan KC 2-40)
Nepal 180-4 (19.4 overs: K Bhurtel 65, A Sheikh 39* (ret.ht.), B Sharki 27)
It seems the only thing we can be sure of when Nepal play is that there will be an exciting finish, and they didn't disappoint again today. Aarif Sheikh hit the final ball of the 19th over for two and promptly retired hurt! And with seven runs required off the final over In walks Lokesh Bam - BAM as he dispatches Lion-Cachet's first delivery for 6! Scores tied, Dot, Dot and them BAM again to end the game with another maximum.
T20I Tri-series: Scotland lost to Netherlands by 17 runs.

Nepal 152-8 (20 overs: R Paudel 48, K Bhurtel 34; D Doram 3-14, V Singh 2-30)
A Nandan Yadev boundary from the final delivery levelled the scores as Nepal scored 55 in the last 5 overs. Daniel Doram whose claimed 3-14 in his four overs bowed the super over for the Netherlands conceding 19 as Kushal Bhurtel (18) hit 2x6 and 1x4 in the 5 balls faced. Karan KC to bowl for Nepal and Michael Levitt hits his first delivery for 6 - Amazing as Max O'Dowd hits the fifth for 6 and ties the super over with a boundary off the last! Second superover - new batter and new bowler. Scott Edwards facing Lalit Rajbanshi, O'Dowd the other batter: 6, 1, 6, wd, 1, 2, W = 17/1. Klein to Paudel: 6, 1, DS Airee facing 4, 0, 0, 6!!!!! = 17/0 and the second super over is also a Tie. Third superover starts with Paudel facing Zac Lion-Cachet: W, 0, 0, W Rupesh Singh the second wicket and that's it = 0/2. Just 1 run will win it for the Netherlands and Levitt blasts Lamichane's first ball for 6. Drama and excitement all the way as Netherlands finally claim the win.

Netherlands 374-6 (49.2 overs: M O'Dowd 158*, T Nidamanuru 51, N Croes 50, M Levitt 44, S Edwards 32; S Sharif 3-62)
A record breaking 191 from George Munsey wasn't enough today (Cricket Scotland)
A record Scottish ODI score from George Munsey whose 191 included 14x4 & 11x6, propelled the Scots to seemingly safe 369. But with Max O'Dowd leading the chase the Oranje still in the game, 200 up in the 30th over. If O'Dowd is leading the way Nidamanuru and Croes are playing their their part also - 32 required off the final 4 overs. The Oranje surely favourites now, they've got the rate down from tens to a run-a-ball from the last 3 overs. Sharif can bowl two of them and he claims Croes third ball back! 11 required off 12 balls and 8 comes off Cassell's final over. 3 off 6 for a fantastic winning chase by the Netherlands. And O'Dowd wins it with a 6!! One of the great chases - what a match.

Netherlands 152/3 (37 overs: C Ackermann 54*, S Edwards 52*; B Scholtz 2-27)
Max O'Dowd is bowled by Bernard Scholtz (ICC)
A sixty run partnership between skipper Gerhard Erasmus and Malan Kruger was all Namibia had to show for their decision to bat first. Three early wickets for Aryan Dutt and three also for both Kyle Klein, who made the initial breakthrough, and Paul van Meekeren who wrapped the innings up, the last six wickets falling for just 32 runs. In the chase Bernard Scholtz caused a wobble with the wickets of Zach Lion-Cachet and Max O’Dowd in quick succession. From 40/3 Colin Ackermann and Scott Edwards steered the Oranje to the win and second place in the table, their unbroken partnership worth 112, both completing half centuries in the process.

A day for spin in Windhoek (Cricket Namibia)
Netherlands openers Vikram Singh and Max O’Dowd battled through to the halfway stage of the reduced game posting 84 before both fell in quick succession. The innings turned into a procession after that with only Teja Nidamanuru offering any resistance but thirty-two precious runs added for the final wicket gave the Netherlands something to defend and defend it they did with some ease. Two wickets for Kyle Klein in his opening over, then three from off-spinner Ayran Dutt removed the middle order, before Zach Lion-Cachet wrapped things up with ten overs to spare.

Max O'Dowd: The evolution to a process driven approach
Max O'Dowd is an opening batsman for the Netherlands who has quietly gone about fashioning a strong record across all three formats. He grabbed the headlines earlier this year when he guided the Dutch home in a monstrous chase of 370 against Scotland in an ODI in Dundee. Opening the innings, he made an unbeaten 158 from just 130 balls to take his team to victory with four balls remaining and four wickets in hand.
