Head-to-Head Record Sri Lanka vs Netherlands
Sri Lanka have won all three T20Is against the Netherlands so far.
Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka’s poor show in the ICC events continued in the T20 World Cup 2024 as well. They are already knocked out of the tournament with losses at the hands of South Africa and Bangladesh. A washout vs Nepal knocked them out of the competition. This is their last game in the group stage and they would be keen on bowing out on a high.
Netherlands
Netherlands are still not out of the tournament but they will have to register a big win over Sri Lanka and at the same time, hope that Nepal beat Bangladesh in the match that will be going on simultaneously. The Dutch have certainly performed better in the T20 World Cup 2024 but they find themselves in trouble here. Nevertheless, a win over Sri Lanka will make it a memorable outing for them.
