New Zealand vs Netherlands, 3rd ODI: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details

The third and final game of the ODI series between New Zealand and the Netherlands will be played on March 4. The Seddon Park in Hamilton will host this final game of the tour.

New Zealand were brilliant in the second game, winning it comprehensively to seal the series. The Dutch needed to win the contest to keep the series alive, but they failed to do so, handing the Kiwis the series as well as World Super League points.

After being asked to bat first, the hosts had a worst possible start. The Netherlands’ bowlers bowled brilliantly, reducing New Zealand to 32-5 at the end of the powerplay. What followed next was a batting masterclass from New Zealand captain Tom Latham.

Latham scored a ton (140* off 123 deliveries) and was well-supported by Doug Bracewell (41), helping the team post 264 runs on the board. Logan van Beek and Fred Klaassen picked up four and three wickets respectively. Only three Dutch batters, in response, got into double digiuts as the visitors were bundled out for 146. Michael Bracewell starred with three scalps for New Zealand.

They will now eye a whitewash in the final game of the series, while the Netherlands will have to be at their absolute best to end the tour on a high.
