- Netherlands vs England in ICC CWC Super League postponed
May 2021 series shifted to same month in 2022
The Royal Dutch Cricket Association (KNCB) and the ECB have decided to postpone the Super League matches scheduled for end May 2021 between The Netherlands men’s XI and England, to May 2022.
The continuing uncertainty re the Covid-19 pandemic and the far-reaching consequences pertaining to the organisation of the three matches were the reason for further consultation between the KNCB and ECB.
