Malaysia will face the Netherlands in the second match of the Nepal tri-nation T20I series at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur on Sunday.
It will be the first T20I between the two sides, who have been playing international cricket for a while now.
Malaysia will start their tri-nation campaign against the Dutch. The Asian outfit last played international matches at the ACC Eastern Regional T20 in Bangkok in March 2020. Contrary to the other two teams participating in the series, Malaysia have announced a squad full of experienced campaigners like Aminuddin Ramly, Khizar Hayat, and Shafiq Sharif. They are placed 31st with 88 points in the ICC T20I standings.
The Netherlands, on the other hand, will be heading into the encounter on the back of a nine-wicket loss to hosts Nepal in the series opener. Pieter Seelaar and co. are aware of the conditions and would like to get off the mark against Malaysia. The Netherlands dropped one place to 18th in the ICC T20I standings, following their defeat at the hands of Nepal.
