National coach Ryan Campbell explains: “New Zealand represents a fantastic challenge for us as they have been one of the best white-ball teams in World Cricket over the past five years. Again, we have taken the opportunity to take some of our best young talents away with us, and bringing back Vikramjit Singh is really exciting. He will be joined by U19s teammate Shariz Ahmad, who gets his first opportunity with the Dutch national side after doing well at the U19s World Cup Qualifiers. Those two will be joined by U19s teammate Aryan Dutt who gets another opportunity after bowling well against Afghanistan. Along with our youngsters, it is great to welcome back senior players Stephan Myburgh, Max O’Dowd and Logan van Beek who will add experience to this squad.”

The matches against New Zealand will be played in the context of the Super League, which offers the prospect of participation in the Cricket World Cup that will be held in India at the end of 2023. In addition to all twelve Full Members, the Netherlands is participating, which qualified for the Super League in 2017.
