Nepal vs Netherlands Betting Tips
Nepal to score low before 1st dismissal
Nepal has a good batting order and it has been their strength. However, there runs an inconsistency with the form in the team. Kushal Bhurtel and Aasif Sheikh open for the team currently in the T20Is and 35.19 & 24.81 in their respective T20I careers. In their last three games, the pair secured 26, 15 & 0 runs before their first dismissal. Nepal went against Namibia in the 1st game of the current series where Bhurtel lost his wicket at 0 whereas Sheikh followed shortly after with the score of 6 in the game. That said, the openers will have a challenge to score high in the opening partnership of their next outing. The Netherlands have an aggressive bowling order and it has improved a lot every year. They will look to pick an early wicket in the next game.

Nepal faced Namibia in the inaugural game of this Tri-Nation Series. Namibia batted first and were able to secure 206 runs with the loss of 4 wickets in the game. Nepal bowlers were pretty inefficient in the game and leaked a lot of runs. Rohit Paudel picked 2 wickets whereas most of the bowlers returned empty-handed. During the chase, Nepal lost their openers pretty quickly but were able to salvage the situation to some extent. However, it did not help as they went on to lose all their wickets in the 19th over with 186 runs on the scoreboard. They lost the game by 20 runs. Dipendra Singh Airee was the highest scorer with 48 runs in the game whereas Rohit Paudel scored 42 runs of his own.
The Netherlands last played a T20I match in the 2022 T20 World Cup against South Africa. They recorded their first win over the Proteas team by 13 runs. Colin Ackermann made an unbeaten 41 runs off 26 deliveries and won the Player of the Match award. Netherlands are coming after a win against Nepal in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 by 8 wickets. This will be an opportunity for them to take a lead over Nepal in the T20 format.
