Netherlands team will arrive in Bangladesh on Tuesday for their first-ever bilateral series against the Tigers. The series comprises three T20 Internationals, all of which will be held at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium.

Scott Edwards will lead the side that included seasoned opener Max O’Dowd, pacer Paul van Meekeren, the Klein brothers Ryan and Kyle, off-spinner Aryan Dutt and leg-spinner Shariz Ahmed.

Netherlands won the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier at home last month by beating Italy in the final.

After landing in Dhaka, Netherlands will move straight to Sylhet and will train there for three days before the series opening game on August 30. The last two matches are scheduled to be held on September 1 and 2.

Bangladesh also played five T20Is against the Netherlands and won four of them.

Their only previous bilateral meeting was in 2012, when Bangladesh toured the Netherlands for two T20Is. The series was drawn 1-1. The Dutch last played in Bangladesh during the 2024 T20 World Cup with the Tigers winning the game by 25 runs.

Netherlands Squad:

Max O’Dowd, Vikramjit Singh, Anil Nidamanuru, Scott Edwards, Noah Croes, Saqib Zulfiqar, Ryan Klein, Kyle Klein, Aryan Dutt, Paul van Meekeren, Shariz Ahmed, Ben Fletcher, Daniel Doram, Tim Pringle and Fred Klaassen.
