Under his leadership, Scott Edwards' Netherlands has been able to win games one after the other in 3 games. The previous match was a win over the United States by 19 runs. Being a match played at their home ground, the team has a strong record at the venue. Edwards is hopeful that they can carry this winning momentum and try to hop to rankings as high as they can. Max O'Dowd and Michael Levitt have been in good shape till now, which works as a good supporting base for the team. The likes of Wesley Barresi and Scott Edwards have played vital middle-order innings. Coming lower down the order with Barresi and Edwards, Vikramjit Singh makes the middle order. Noah Croes, Shariz Ahmad, and the middle-lower order consists of Kyle Klein. The bowling attack of the team is also in nice form during the tournament. They'll want some early breakthroughs with Vivian Kingma and Kyle Klein to give the batsmen a comfortable time out in the middle, and Aryan Dutt—the highest wicket-taker—will want to pick some crucial ones in the middle overs with Paul van Meekeren. Michael Levitt and Shariz Ahmad give extra bowling strength.
Netherlands Predicted Lineup
Scott Edwards (c & wk), Michael Levitt, Max O'Dowd, Vikramjit Singh, Wesley Barresi, Noah Croes, Shariz Ahmad, Kyle Klein, Aryan Dutt, Paul van Meekeren, Vivian Kingma
Canada form
After making a bright start in the tournament with four straight wins, the Nicholas Kirton-led team stumbled as they lost their third game in a row. Their loss to neighboring rivals United States by 14 runs last time out showcased their weak performance with the ball. The team has always been poor against the Netherlands, and Kirton is hungry to win to revive his team's campaign.
Aaron Johnson was a delightful performer with the bat as he would look to give a good foundation for his side along with Aaditya Varadarajan. Pargat Singh in the middle order also has a key role to play while building the innings with Dilpreet Singh and Nicholas Kirton. Harsh Thaker, Saad Bin Zafar, and Shreyas Movva would look to support the core for the posting of a challenging total.
After the disappointment of the previous game, the bowling unit has a tough job ahead. Expect Kaleem Sana and Jeremy Gordon to come hard in search of early wickets to get the momentum. Dillon Heyliger, Saad Bin Zafar, and Harsh Thaker will have to contain the run flow in the middle overs, while Pargat Singh will be required to do that in an effective manner.
Canada Predicted Playing XI
Nicholas Kirton (c), Aaron Johnson, Dilpreet Bajwa, Aaditya Varadarajan, Pargat Singh, Harsh Thaker, Shreyas Movva (wk), Saad Bin Zafar, Dillon Heyliger, Kaleem Sana, Jeremy Gordon

Canada has been outclassed in the last two matches due to their inconsistent bowling attack, which is another powerful concern for the team. They have never beaten the Netherlands. They have the home advantage, and the Netherlands are in good form. They should win this match because they have the most powerful lineup in bowling attacks. Our prediction is that the Netherlands will win.
