OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Mitchell Santner has the last laugh here as he uses those boundaries early in the over to tempt the batter into making a mistake. Santner gives this one much more flight and pushes it wider of the off stump as well. Scott Edwards looks for the slog-sweep but ends up reaching for it and slices it high up over the bowler's head.

The two umpires walk out to the middle followed by the players of both sides who now line up for their respective national anthems. It will be Netherlands' first followed by the national anthem of New Zealand.

The New Zealand captain, Tom Latham says that they would have had a bowl as well and it looks like a decent surface but will now look to put runs on the board. Adds that it was a fantastic game last time around and the bowlers and the partnership between Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra was an excellent one. Ends by informing that they have one change as Lockie Ferguson comes in for James Neesham.

Scott Edwards, the skipper of Netherlands says that they will bowl first. Adds that from the earlier game, it seemed like bowling conditions are better and dew is not a factor as well. Tells that they are at a good level and will try to cash in win games. Informs they have two forced changes as Saqib Zulfiqar and Logan van Beek miss out.

Netherlands (Playing XI) - Vikramjit Singh, Max O'Dowd, Colin Ackermann, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Scott Edwards (C/WK), Sybrand Engelbrecht (On debut) (In for Saqib Zulfiqar), Roelof van der Merwe, Ryan Klein (In for Logan van Beek), Aryan Dutt, and Paul van Meekeren.

New Zealand (Playing XI) - Devon Conway, Will Young, Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell, Tom Latham (C/WK), Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Mitchell Santner, Matt Henry, Trent Boult, and Lockie Ferguson (in for James Neesham).

TOSS - Up goes the flip of the coin and it lands in favor of Netherlands. They have elected to BOWL first.

PITCH REPORT - Ian Bishop is pitchside. He says that there is a nice breeze coming through and it is 69m and 62m on either side square of the wickets. Katey Martin joins him and says that the pitch looks like a batting paradise and it's a good day to be a batter. She reckons that the spinners might be important for either side but even more so for Netherlands.

Netherlands are a gritty side and they have shown it in the Qualifiers leading up to the mega event and they gave it their all against Pakistan in their opening fixture. There were a few notable individual performances but it was Bas de Leede who was their best player with runs and wickets both in his kitty. They do have the players to cause an upset but just need it all to come together for a longer period in the game. Can they hand the high-flying Kiwis an unlikely defeat? Or will New Zealand breeze through this game as well? We shall find out. Toss and team news in a bit.

New Zealand come into this fixture on the back of a thumping victory against reigning champions England. It was a near-perfect game for the Kiwis as they restricted a powerful English batting lineup to about 280 runs on a surface that suited batting. Matt Henry and Mitchell Santner were the chief architects of their stellar bowling and then Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra hit twin tons to make a mockery of the run chase. They will be hoping to continue in the same fashion and given a couple of the injured players are available for selection, we might see a change or two in the side.

Hello and a warm welcome to one and all! We are at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad where New Zealand will be going up against Netherlands in Match 6 of the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup. Two teams who have had contrasting starts to the tournament but both have shown some promising signs and we sure are to get a good game in.

... MATCH DAY ...

The 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup is off to a flier and with all teams having featured at least once, it is now time for the second round of fixtures. An in-form New Zealand side takes on Netherlands at the Rajiv Gandi International Stadium in Hyderabad and even though it's early in the tournament, this could be a vital contest for both sides. The Kiwis played their fixture up in Ahmedabad in a repeat of the 2019 final and absolutely demolished one of the favourites England. They were missing the likes of their talismanic skipper Kane Williamson along with pacers Tim Southee and Lockie Ferguson but that didn't seem to stop them one bit. Matt Henry had a fabulous outing with the ball along with Mitchell Santner. Trent Boult also managed to pull things back later on but it was the added advantage of part-time spinner Glenn Phillips that really turned the tide in the first innings as Phillips picked up two massive wickets. With the bat, Devon Conway struck a big ton surpassing the 150-run mark and with him Rachin Ravindra too notched up a classy century, marking his presence on the biggest stage. Tim Southee and Lockie Ferguson are most likely to be fit for this clash but if they get a spot in the starting XI is a question mark. Williamson in all likelihood is to be rested for this game too as he continues to recover. Talking about Netherlands, they threatened Pakistan at times in their opening fixture at the same ground. Bas de Leede was their best player on the field as he took 4 wickets and even scored a fighting half-century later in the game. They seem to have a decent bowling attack with the likes of Aryan Dutt and Logan van Beek showing consistency. Batting will be a bit of an issue and skipper Scott Edwards himself would like to get into a bit of form. The Netherlands do have the positive of having already played in Hyderabad and will look to notch up a famous win. The Kiwis will be absolutely pumped up and full of confidence and would like to get back-to-back wins under their kitty. Who are you backing?
