South Africa are getting ready to take on the Netherlands in match no. 15 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on Tuesday. SA are currently near the top of the table with two impressive wins over Sri Lanka and Australia so far.
However, Temba Bavuma’s side will not like to take the Dutch lightly. To SA’s peril, they suffered a stunning loss to the Netherlands in the T20 World Cup 2022 match in Adelaide last year which resulted in the side failing to make the semifinal stage.
“We definitely won’t be taking them lightly. There was a T20 World Cup last year, so 50 over World Cup now, different format, different ask in terms of your skills, being able to do your skills for a longer period of time. So, I think that’s something that I think we all need to appreciate,” Bavuma said in the pre-match press conference in Dharamsala on Monday.
“Like I said, we played them in South Africa and I think our victories there were emphatic in my view. So, I think in terms of the confidence and belief within the team without us being arrogant or loud about it I think it’s still up there. We still respect opposition, not just Netherlands, but any opposition that you come up with against an international level. But we’ll be coming up, we’ll be coming into the game with the same mindset that we had against Sri Lanka and that we had against Australia,” he added.
South Africa can look at one possible change in the lineup, bringing in pacer Gerald Coetzee in place of chinaman bowler Tabraiz Shamsi looking at the conditions in Dharamsala.
