Netherlands to have pre-World Cup camp in Alur
The Netherlands team is scheduled to have a 12-day camp near Bengaluru in September. The pre-World Cup gathering of the Dutch men, the surprise qualifiers for the championship, has been organized by the Netherlands Cricket and the Karnataka State Cricket Association. The camp will take place from September 19 to October 1 at the Alur facility of the KSCA.
A KSCA official confirmed the development to Cricbuzz after a couple of Dutch officials informed Cricbuzz about the plan. There are plans to extend the camp by a couple of weeks, possibly from the first week of September, but a confirmation on this has not yet been obtained.
The Scot Edwards-led side qualified for the October 5-November 19 World Cup against many odds and ahead of stronger full member teams like the West Indies and Zimbabwe. They beat Scotland convincingly in a must-win World Cup qualifier game in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, securing their place by outperforming the Scots on Net Run Rate. Bas de Leede was the undisputed Man of the Match with five wickets and 123 runs.
"What a fantastic performance this Dutch team has achieved! Beforehand, qualification in the midst of so many Full Members seemed like a hopeless mission. The Orange bellied all the doomsayers with brilliant game plans and unprecedented fighting spirit and deserved to make it to the final tournament," the Dutch cricket official website said of the achievement. This will be their fifth appearance in an ODI World Cup after taking part in the 1996, 2003, 2007 and 2011 editions.
The Netherlands are scheduled to open their campaign against Pakistan on October 5 in Hyderabad. They are set to play their games against New Zealand in Hyderabad on October 9, against South Africa on October 17 in Dharamsala, against Sri Lanka on October 21 in Lucknow, against Australia in Delhi on October 25, against Bangladesh in Kolkata on October 28, against Afghanistan in Lucknow on November 3, against England in Pune on November 8, and finally, play their final league game against hosts India on November 11 in Bengaluru.
Needless to emphasize, the schedule of a couple of their games may undergo a change as the Board of Control for Cricket in India and the International Cricket Council (ICC) are yet to release the final program of the World Cup.
