Preview
Scotland is coming back into the ODI scene after almost two years of not playing in the format. Due to the pandemic, Scotland’s cricket has been affected as well. Now, when they face the Netherlands, they would be excited for this comeback.
The Netherlands, on the other hand, has been actively playing. Some of the key players were just in Ireland a few days ago where they played in the unofficial One Day series. On that note, both the teams are evenly matched in terms of quality and this match should be interesting to watch.

Ben Cooper (Netherlands)
Ben Cooper has been in some good form and was seen playing some crucial knocks during their team’s tour to Nepal recently. He has played only eight matches but has a lot of experience. He is an extremely effective batsman with a good strike rate.
Kyle Coetzer (Scotland)
Kyle Coetzer has been one of the best players in associate cricket for the past decade or so. His record is quite good and if you had to choose someone from Scotland, it has to be him.
