Dutch cricketers to play four World Cup qualifier matches in Scotland

The men's One Day Internationals (50 overs) will be played as part of the World Cup League 2 and count towards World Cup qualification in 2027. The matches will be played at Forfarshire CC in Scotland. The T20Is that follow will be played in Glasgow.

All matches can be seen live and free of charge on ICC TV. Later this year, the men (July) as well as the women (August) will play qualifying tournaments in the Netherlands for the T20 World Cups.

National men’s coach Ryan Cook: “We have had some very encouraging performances in the WCL2 this year and will look to continue on the tour in Scotland. We have played both Scotland and Nepal in the competition already and aim to be well prepared for the challenges ahead. We have been able to select a team of players with good depth in skill and experience who have been performing well throughout the summer.”
