England vs Netherlands Live: Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Dutch assistant coach Ryan van Niekerk said, “I think our motivation is to make sure that us as a team are always improving and getting better. We came into this tournament with a goal, maybe fallen slightly short of that goal of reaching the semifinals, but it doesn’t mean that we prepare any differently and I think for us as a group, every game is important to us to play to win. I don’t think we ever rock up thinking that we like to compete against the best teams in the world. We’re here to win, and we’re here to try and make sure that we can prepare as consistently as possible,”

We believe that England will win this match and keep the chances alive for the Champions Trophy 2025.

England vs Netherlands Live: Speaking at the pre-match press conference, English assistant coach Carl Hopkinson said, “I think it’s more around actual skill execution and those key moments throughout the tournament. I think it’s clear for everyone to see that we haven’ t got those quite right and as executed as well as we possibly could have done and actually that’s what this team’s probably known for over the last five or six years, so I think that’s probably the biggest takeaway for me as a coach,”

“It comes from lots of things. It comes from, first of all, doing it in a game, winning games of cricket, which gives you confidence, but then ultimately it comes from your training as well, which every single one of the players is always trying to put right, and this group is well-renowned for pushing the boundaries of their own game and always looking to improve,”

England vs Netherlands Live: England have a 6-0 record against the Netherlands when it comes to ODI cricket matches. These two teams faced off last time in June 2022. England won by 8 wickets. These teams are yet to clash in a World Cup match.

England vs Netherlands Live: Speaking at the pre-match press conference, English assistant coach Carl Hopkinson said, “I think first and foremost we have to think about what’s coming tomorrow. I think anything that comes after that is what comes after that. We need to be thinking about tomorrow, we need to be thinking about Pakistan because we’ve got two very important games in which we need to win and win well to qualify for the Champions Trophy, which is what we need to do. And I think you’re asking about after that, at the moment I want to concentrate on what’s in front of us training this afternoon and preparing the lads as well as we can for the game tomorrow,”

England vs Netherlands Live: Pune’s pitch typically benefits batters. While quick bowlers may enjoy some initial seam movement and swing, precision is crucial. Teams winning the toss usually prefer to field first. Ten ODIs have been played so far at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune so far. Five of those matches were won by teams batting first. On November 1, the New Zealand-South Africa match went in favor of the Proteas, who won by 190 runs.
