Preview
In the match 45th of the ODI World Cup 2023, India will go head-to-head against the Netherlands at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The Men in Blue have stayed undefeated after eight matches in the CWC 2023, while the Dutch haven’t had the campaign, they initially expected it to be. In their final round robin match before the semi-final of CWC 2023, the Indian cricket team will be looking to keep their winning momentum going at the expense of the Netherlands.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru have been very good for batting, but it has also allowed the top-quality bowlers to shine through. While the average first innings total at this venue is 262, Team India’s batting lineup has the strength and depth to exceed this number with relative ease, if they get a good start in the first powerplay.
Team Analysis
India
The batting lineup of the Indian cricket team has managed to score runs consistently against all comers in the CWC 2023, with the likes of Virat Kohli and the captain Rohit Sharma being the top scorers over the last month or so. The bowling side of things has been more of a collective effort with Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Ravindra Jadeja, and Kuldeep Yadav picking up key wickets for the Men in Blue regularly.

Netherlands
The Netherlands have seen a few decent individual performances with the bat in the ODI World Cup 2023, especially from Sybrand Engelbrecht and the captain Scott Edwards, but as a whole, it has been a disappointing effort from them. The Dutch bowlers have made it tougher for certain teams to dominate them, due to the wickets of Logan van Beek, Aryan Dutt, and Paul van Meekeren in particular, but they can certainly improve with their performances as the time goes on.

Match Prediction
Conclusion
India boasts a massive advantage over the Netherlands, looking at the quality of players at the disposal of both teams. But the Indian cricket team can’t afford to look past the Dutch before their semi-final clash of the ODI World Cup comes around.
